The Gaza Strip would make excellent tinder for a firebombing ala Dresden in the total war that Israel should wage after this arab butchery. :up:

In the short run this is going to stabilize Israel, which has been in a deep political crisis for quite a while. And this is not deep psychology, this was absolutely forseeable. Whoever planned this must have known that attacking like this would be a rallying call for Israelis to unite and hit back as hard as possible.
And while Russia doesn't really profit from this it can always be argued that Russia has done a lot of things recently it doesn't profit from...

Russia, Russia, Russia! :har: Russia's been getting the blame for everything since 2015 :har:

And before. And rightly so.


Meanwhile Hezbollah opened missile fire on the socalled sheeba farms that israel took in 1967. UN counts these as Israel's, not Libanon's.

Russia calls for immediate ceasefire

In a recent development, Russia has urgently called for an immediate ceasefire. The Russian Foreign Ministry made the announcement, emphasizing the need to de-escalate the ongoing conflict.

"The situation in Gaza is deteriorating rapidly, and we call for an immediate ceasefire," said Maria Zakharova, the spokesperson for the Russian Foreign Ministry according to AP.

She further added, "It is crucial to prevent further loss of life and to ensure the safety of civilians."

The call from Russia comes amid escalating violence in the region, which has led to numerous casualties and widespread destruction. The Russian government is urging both sides to halt hostilities and engage in dialogue to resolve the conflict.

According to Zakharova, Russia is deeply concerned about the humanitarian crisis unfolding in Gaza. "The international community must act swiftly to provide aid and ensure the well-being of the affected population," she stated.

The Russian Foreign Ministry also highlighted the role of international organizations in mediating the conflict.

"We believe that the United Nations and other international bodies should be actively involved in facilitating a peaceful resolution," Zakharova said.

Fighting between the Israeli military and Palestinian militants continues in Israeli territory near Gaza
A spokesman says Israel is "still at war... still completing efforts to take full control of Israeli territory and communities from Hamas"
Israeli air strikes have killed at least 313 people in the Gaza Strip, with almost 2,000 wounded, Palestinian officials say
In Israel, 300 civilians have also been killed, and dozens of Israelis have been taken hostage
One British citizen, Jake Marlowe, is missing - he was working as security at an outdoor party near the Gaza border when the attack happened
And in Egypt, two Israeli tourists and their Egyptian tour guide were shot dead in Alexandria, apparently by a policeman
On Saturday morning, Hamas launched a wave of rocket attacks and fighters stormed into Israel, in the biggest escalation in decades
Israeli revenge will be swift and far reaching.

Aye if only :06:

Latest reports state Palestinian militants have killed more than 400 Israelis since yesterday's attack began.

The reports add that 2,000 have been injured.

Will this lead to a state of war between Israel and Iran ?

Hearing and reading the news where Iran has been mentioned, made me wonder if this could happen.

^An emphatic No me thinks, Iran prefers to give people the bullets to fire rather than get directly involved, even a small defeat for its Republican Guard might de-stabilize their grip on power, they'll hide in the shadows as usual, like they always do.

I'd add that Iran has a lot on his hands already, internal struggles and the infighting within Islam between Sunni and Shia. They can ill afford an open confrontation with Israel (or anyone else) at this time.

I do not questioning your expertise on this matter.

What I think-in my opinion-The architect behind this assault on Israel has Iran written all over it. In the end I think Israel will punish Iran-How I don't know.

I'd love to see Israel bring war criminal charges against sleepy joe for funding Hamas via releasing those $6 billion to Iran. Wouldn't really care if the charges stuck or not, just worth it for some legal payback. Israel could even just announce they were debating bringing charges against sleepy joe and that would make me happy. :D

I'm surprised the democrats haven't blamed this barbary on President Trump yet for his recognizing Jerusalem as the capital of Israel.

I really wanna see "The Squad" interviewed regarding this attack. :har:
