Good. If Israel collectively punished the Palestinians for choosing Hamas as leaders, then surely the Israeli people will ultimately know the costs of keeping Bibi Netanyahu in power as their leader?

If the people of a nation are not strong enough to overthrow the leaders leading their country to ruination (see the US military having to topple not only Saddam but the statue of Saddam during Bush/Cheney's war on Iraq because the people there were unable to do either under their own power.  Saddam should have been left alone in office.  How in the world did anyone ever assess those people strong enough to form a government of their own, or run or maintain a democracy when they could not even unite to bring down a statue of a leader much less himself?), then the people of that country must live under his rule until it no longer becomes tolerable...

Isn't that what just happened in America under the last 3 years of Joe Biden's "leadership"?  Here we are again, funding the world's wars, which we voters thought we were wrapping up during the past two terms, "getting out" and working for a more peaceful place to raise children, nurture live, build and grow...

Here we are again, funnelling billions to the "defense industry" and killing the planet and plenty of good people in it while we're at it...

I'm glad the Israeli people are living in fear. It will encourage them to work for peace and not feel overly confident in the success of their kill rate using American-made weapon.  Cmon Team USA and Team Israel... we're so  much better than this as a people!

Stop. Worshipping. Guns. and Death.!  Retire the old men leaders who only understand killing to win, and who try to justify the military strategy that embraces the deaths of tens of thousands of unarmed people... That's not war.  Israel has not been tested. I'd be afraid too of the consequences coming...

I hope Iran waits and waits to deliver justice.  Let the people of Israel think about who is leading them and the poor results he and the IDF has thus delivered... (shooting down 3 hostages of your own, surrendering under a white flag... how Netanyahu and IDF leadership survived that episode, much less the Oct 7. attack and response itself, is telling of how much we overrated Israeli intelligence...  Let's sever these ties before America gets dragged in and more of our innocents killed to make the world safe for Israel?)
