DawgTalkers.net Forums DawgTalk Palus Politicus Netanyahu says Israel is ‘at war’ as Palestinian militants launch surprise air and ground attack from Gaza

there is a large faction of libtards who support terrorism and advocate for the killing of jews.

This is why I've always questioned the energy behind supporting Israel. Nobody has the moral high-ground, but yet you're an anti-semite if you start asking questions. With the Ukraine war as the background (and all the wrangling involved in sending them help), it's just weird to me the difference in responses.

There are only two boxes on the liberal flowchart.

The first one can be anything from climate change to aliens.

The second one is 100% always "TRUMP!!!"

I’m not liking the IDF’s tactics. Essentially bombing Gaza isn’t doing anything but creating more Hamas militants. They should’ve done a ground invasion from the very beginning instead of targeted bombing, especially because there’s zero chance of avoiding civilian casualties in an urban environment if you’re bombing the place.

IDF is doing the same thing Hamas is doing, making no one have the moral high ground. Should have been ground invasion from the jump, kicking down doors, and gaining valuable intel at the same time. Hell, if they started with ground forces, I would support some American troops joining in because we have 20 years of doing exactly that in Afghanistan and Iraq.

IDF has struck a church in Gaza, because people forget there are plenty of Palestinian Christian’s there as well. Former Republican rep Amash announced that some relatives were killed sheltering in a church that was struck by IDF bombing. But this is what happens when you decide to link everybody’s ethnicity with their religion; you no longer can tell - or WANT to tell - the difference.

Y’all know I have no problem with military engagements, but I have big issues with responding to civilian casualties by purposely targeting civilians. This is similar to the indiscriminate bombing Russia has been doing to Ukrainian civilians, except they are the aggressors from the start.

Who is the leading candidate to win the Republican nomination in 2024 again? Who is it Republicans last elected president again? I know you wish to silence anyone who points out your own hypocrisy but that isn't going to work. You own it.

Now let's recap. The civilian population in Palestine are not Hamas. The women and children in Gaza are not Hamas. No more than the innocent civilians of Israel are members of the IDF or responsible for what the Israeli government has and is doing to the Palestinian civilians.

It seems some wish to pick and choose which women, children and elderly people should be slaughtered based on where they live, who their government is and what their religion is. Innocent people are innocent. And they should all be protected.

And if you wish to bring up antisemitism, nothing is any more antisemitic than this. When white nationalists marched across the campus in Charlottesville chanting "Jews will not replace us!". Only one person made a claim as outrageous as this......"There are very fine people on both sides.”

No wonder you want to silence anyone from saying that. Manning up to reality isn't your strong suit. It would be better if you could blame the people calling you on your BS.

You're never going to see me tearing down those posters of missing Israeli's or anything like that. And I was talking about supporting Israel over the years (it's definitely easier to do now).

Just an observation of mine when I heard Blinken speak that first time. I found it odd hearing, in no uncertain terms, about how we've 100% got Israel's back (a carrier group had already arrived on-site) when we're struggling to get Ukraine equipment. I would think supporting Ukraine/NATO would be more pragmatic than adding to what we've already given Israel... knowing full well how they've been treating Gaza over the years.

Bombs can't target who they're killing. Soldiers can.

Not really. I've been telling them to prepare for over a decade. I saw all of this coming long ago. It began with the tea party. I knew at some point we would have to defend America from an overthrow coming from within. Trying to overthrow our election was the opening salvo. The beginning, not the end. You would be very surprised by how many liberals are preparing for the obvious.

Hamas was counting on people like AOC to lose focus and start blaming Israel. Giving in now is the same as giving into terrorists.

What the hell did AOC do? You always drop her name like she’s the evil queen in your fairy tale.

She did nothing. Gopers just hate women in general and anything to do with women’s rights. So minority women in power get the brunt of their hate.

nice rant. must be happy hour.

And yet another post that complains about not showing "true facts" while showing no "true facts." It's an argument one expects from a pre-teen. Let me point the finger while complaining about finger pointing.

While we can quibble on how "large," there is a not insignificant amount of people that seem to be supporting terrorism and advocating for killing Jews. Just because you don't want to associate them with your group, doesn't mean they don't exist. Illustrations/"facts" have been linked on the boards.

At the same time, I don't think name calling does anything to help the situation on the other side, either.

Tlaib? Omar?

? What’s that?

Name one…ONE…democrat law maker on capitol hill not fully backing Israel? Facts bro. I can name a lot of republicans not wanting to back Ukraine.

And how do you know they aren’t backing Israel?

The reason I put our troops on the ground is because they have American hostages. If it wasn’t for that, then yes Israel can handle that.

Doing some reading on the modern history of Gaza, it’s interesting that these underground tunnel networks were actually more successful and profitable when Israel decided to start their blockade.

It’s like middle eastern version of America’s drug war; all they did was strengthened Hamas and made them more powerful and prosperous.
