In reply to the discussion: Bibi and his monsters are bombing the shit out of Beirut today [View all]Sundance1220
(177 posts)19. Are you completely ignorant of the fact
that hezbollah and Palestinian islamic jihad have been lobbing rockets and missiles - THOUSANDS OF THEM - into Northern Israel for years already? That Iran attacked Israel. I would be furious if the US President told them to sit back and take it after Oct 7. Enough is enough. Demand the terrorists lay down their arms, release all hostages and try leading their people rather than hiding behind them.

If Israel does nothing, the attacks will increase in quanity and horror as they would look weak.
