Perhaps fewer 2000 lb bombs dropped on full hospitals or schools or refugee camps to do so.  The indiscriminate method does seem to help the recruitment program for Hamas.
First, Israel bombs military targets.
Second, Hamas  intentionally places civilians at those targets.
Third,  it appers both Hamas and Hezbollah are experiencing huge turnovers in leadership on account of premature deaths via faulty pagers and walkie talkies?
Are you sending thoughts and prayers their way?

Icould have posted as oilcantankerous or Galileotard or Herpes Trimegistus without in any way altering an objective state of affairs in the world or my ability to point them out.

It was thousands not hundreds of mourners for the Hezbollah terrorists who marched thru the streets of central Sydney on Sunday afternoon...Palestinian flags everywhere, and the usual stuff.
No permit, city traffic brought to a standstill,... buses and light rail (trams) couldn't operate, it all was just allowed by cop heirachy not the few cops on the ground...weak as water.
No 1 radio host today let the female police commissioner have it with angry words this morning.
Launched into a vicious tirade at the supporters of terrorists who took over the streets.
Yes, multiculturalism in Australia has been a dismal failure...despite what the politicians would have the world believe.
Oct 9 2023, 2 days after Oct 7 terror-torture-murder of Israelis in their homes etc, protesters did the same thing, no permit ...gathered at Central train station and marched thru the streets to the Opera house forecourt where they allegedly screamed antisemitism without censure and lit flares (illegal).
What did the cops do?
Nothing...gave them an escort.

Police Commissioner woman said anything else would've been " too confrontational".

A wild pitch you hack wildly at, which is how you got consigned from the minors and through semi-pro to your current status at strikeout leader in the T-ball league at your old folks home.

DT:

"Three Sydney mosques to hold vigils for slain Hezbollah leader."

#####

Of course.
No great surprise.

Oh, the leader of Hamas in Lebanon has also been killed in an airstrike.
IDF forces are expected to cross the border into Lebanon in a ground invasion...to get after the rest of them, most likely.

Have the hostages been released yet?

With the death of every Islamic terrorist, peace draws closer snd the world becomes safer.

Just as in the days of the Troubles whenever a Terrorist is killed the collateral casualties usually produce two or more new recruits.

In its campaign to kill Hamas terrorists Israel has created many widows and orphans who may seek vengeance..
Should Israel not be killing Hamas terrorists?

Of course they should, Hamas is a terrorist death cult that does not give one shit about the civilians in Gaza, therefore the Israeli government should. The Israeli government led by Netanyahu and the Israeli equivalent of the mullah in Iran also do not give a shit about the hostages.

So say that, which I agree with, instead of seemingly arguing that Israel killing terrorists is some sort of quixotic endeavor
"Nuance is for the weak" should be the motto of every message board everywhere.

The point is that no matter how many leaders Israel kills - and they should - they are going to need to make a lasting peace with some very pissed off people, or else, I guess, exterminate all the brutes. And I pray that Israel is not going to explore the heart of that darkness. So HOW you go about these things .atters.

Amazing that dockworkers are going on strike during a time when most Americans are reeling from inflation. Pure terrorist blckmail doing it during the election. 40% pay increase is being asked for. We know Santa Joe will give everyone what they want. Inviting more strikes.

I'd be interested in knowing how Biden could give dockworkers "what they want" even if he wanted.  You're either a pretty dumb guy or blinded by your hatred.

I am obsessed with the forum monikers due to having no factual response to the other part of the post calling Luee on his bullshit.

He has the power to stop the strike in the national interest which he should do. Duh! Umomma didn't tell you?
