Israel was taken by surprise by the most ambitious operation Hamas has ever launched from Gaza.
The scale of what’s been happening is unprecedented. Hamas breached the wire that separates Gaza from Israel in multiple places in the most serious cross-border attack Israel has faced in more than a generation.
It came a day after the 50th anniversary of the surprise attack by Egypt and Syria in 1973 that started a major Middle East war. The significance of the date will not have been lost on the Hamas leadership.
Israel’s Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu says his country is at war and will exact a heavy price from its enemies.
Videos and photos of dead Israelis, civilians as well as soldiers, are all over social media.
Yeah it has been for decades and decades but suddenly because Israel actually gets hurt for once in like what 60 fucking years it’s a step too far.
When either side has murdered civilians, I have called that side out. Terrorism is not acceptable
Terrorism is a staple of human life and always has been. We’ve reduced that somewhat but it still remains.
This is simply what happens when you run an apartied state.
So is child molestation and I don’t tolerate that either
True enough but you’re probably not complicit in your governments involvement in the middle East either.
