    I don't know. Both were air warning maps purportedly showing mass air incursions in the north of Israel. But it may have been unintentionally overblown - many have now concluded that it was a very limited attempted intrusion

    Democrats are unified in supporting Israel. Republicans are unified in trying to figure out how to blame Biden for it and use it for politics. This thread is the perfect demonstration of that. That is what should bother you.

    You are trying too hard to divide Americans as usual.

    That ain’t true. The extremists in the left are screaming anti-Israel bull crap.

    Not sure this is accurate. The people I have seen supporting Hamas or not fully behind Israel are not maga and more resembled Antifa or summer of love. Venn diagram overlap but not mutually exclusive. My only point was that while we were negotiating this 6b the Iranians were fully aware and simultaneously planning the attack. And that’s on Sullivan and Biden and other than that the attack has nothing to do with Biden

    After watching more interviews with Hamas leaders it is more apparent than ever that they need to be completely eradicated.

    yes. 100%. Had it been drunk kids throwing molotovs over the fence I would say no. But something of this magnitude 100% yes

    2000+ years of fighting in that region is good grounds for skepticism.

    Plus religion

    Mix of anger and sadness to see anyone cheering on Hamas.

    I'd rather not get into too deeply into it but suffice to say, I see such cheering as demonstrative of the bigger sociopolitical issues that inflame people. Part history, part tribalism, part expressions of personal frustration/anger over real or perceived injustices/conditions etc.

    IF we reneg on a hostage deal, good luck getting Americans back again, do we love supporting Israel more than the welfare of captured Americans? For some, I guess so!

    Iranian intelligence apparatus is quite robust and world class.

    I support Israel 100%, does that mean I should be cheering on the deaths of innocent persons, trapped in a situation not of there own making, or they are not involved in?

    NO

    Anyone that is reasonably objective knows this is a complex issue with many failures on both sides.

    I don't write blank checks to anyone.

    Israel may demolish Gaza to the last building. But anyone that thinks the story is over is crazy. History proves that.
    Israel could kill every Palestinian alive and it won't be over. Hate vacumns are quickly filled.

    Hate begets hate. The cycle will be continued until reasonable people decide murderous blood letting may not be the best solution.

    Clearly, whatever led up to this, must be considered political and ideological failure on both sides.

    So is ours. See post #1081, since you avoided posting a link or source unless you were suggesting you are privy to Israeli intelligence info.
