You would think anybody with half a brain would be wary of any communication device and check or isolate them after yesterday.

For context: The Iron Dome is a defense system. The Iron Dome has prevented Hezbollah rockets and missiles from killing thousands of Israelis. Not an opinion, just a fact.

According to certain international law experts from Queens and the Bronx: Attacking the communication capabilities of the terrorists organization that is committed to Jihad, committed to destroying your country, and plots to murder your citizenry, is a violation of international law. Really?

Only this to say: Never Again Is Now.

Southern Lebanon.

Much, much better than blunt edged bombing, or invasion.
