Thread: Israel-Hamas war

1100 now confirmed dead. This number is sadly expected to rise
 
I know this is sarcastic, but the world was pretty quiet during those 4 years. Except for BLM in the US. Weird.
Similar to when Reagan was in office. Other leaders of threat thought they'd actually hit the Nuke button. Everyone around the world knows Biden won't.

Nice to see one Democrat condemn the anti American, racist, POS's in the Democrat Party. Hopefully more Democrats are just as vocal in condemning them. I would also hope they remove them from any committee assignments and place them under surveillance to insure they are not committing treason.

@Been Jammin,@dnhall, and @COWBOYintheUK, don't understand cash flow and are SO naive. They believe in paying terrorists. And just like that, the terrorists get more prisoners and commit more crimes.

🧵I'm sorry Jen but you are simply unfamiliar with Iranian budgeting practices and how the Iranian regime and Hamas make decisions.

1. Iran normally has to allocate its limited foreign exchange reserves for food/medicine months in advance to facilitate trade flows. Not anymore.



2. Iran can now devote $6 billion of its unrestricted funds toward financial, operational, and logistical support for terror proxies including Hamas.

And it will do so through the Central Bank of Iran, which received a sanctions waiver last month as part of the hostage deal.Image
3. According to Iranian lawmakers, they planned to use the $6 billion to backfill internal accounting debts to the Central Bank of Iran, which is sanctioned by the U.S. for their support of Iranian terrorism and support for Hamas.

4. According to US Treasury sanctions across administrations, Hamas receives tens if not hundreds of millions of dollars directly from Iran through the IRGC.

The $6 billion payment freed up huge reserves to ensure that Iran could continue this support.

5. Iranian and Hamas decisions about whether to embark on a war depend on their perceptions of whether they can sustain such operations.

Between the $6 billion infuse to cover future domestic needs, and the tens of billions of dollars in extra oil income, the answer was easy.Image

6. Secondly, as I've written about repeatedly, the notion this $6 billion will even go for the humanitarian needs of the Iranian people is contradicted by a stream of evidence.

Ex. In 2019, 19 Iranian trucks of medicine were confiscated as they were heading for black markets.Image
In fact, in 2020, Iran's Health Minister complained that there was “a highly complicated network” within the government responsible for systemic corruption and theft of medicine and medical goods.

They may buy medicine, but it'll go to the IRGC and Hamas.
7. Congressional sources tell me the administration cannot answer basic questions about the $6 billion payment, such as whether there is any ability for end-use monitoring of the food/medicine allegedly bought.

Moreover, Iran has a long banking history of fraudulent invoicing.
8. As just one example, read this DOJ indictment against Halbank, a Turkish bank that facilitated "humanitarian" trade with Iran.

So please, don't take the administration's claims at face value. They are talking points without a grounding in truth.

Turkish Bank Charged in

In the words of Iran's President Raisi: “Humanitarian means whatever the Iranian people needs, so this money will be budgeted for those needs.”

Iran is on the 34-nation Financial Action Task Force's blacklist for lack of financial transparency.

Democrats better be working to cover their asses when the terrorists strike here, thanks to the Biden administration and the open southern border.
There is no amount of spin to CYA that. None. Zero.

Here is what is so morally deficient about what they did: They used racism as a reason to not build the wall and as result put US lives at stake. Same bunch that race baited and said white supremacy was the greatest terrorism threat to the US. They exchanged votes over US security. Joe Biden is the greatest single terrorist threat to the US.

They can spin all they want, but there is ZERO defense.

The ONE thing our government OWES us? Our safety and security.

In the 3 short years the world is less secure and we have no border security. 3 years.

I was often laughed at by our Democrat friends when I said Democrats were the greatest threat this country faced. Wonder if they are laughing now.

Simple common sense, something severely lacking on the left
 
An additional 300 found dead; including 40 babies.

70+ Hamas terrors butchered a town of 700 in Israel

Nothing says "support my cause" like beheading babies. Maybe it's time we level the Gaza strip and start over.

You could make the case for going door to door and eliminating HAMAS members. Send the remaining 2M civilians to Egypt. Jordan, and Syria. I am sure they have open borders like the US.

Once that is done, carpet bomb it. Bring in the bulldozers and clean it out. Build an air/naval/army/missile base.

In the shape of a middle finger pointed at Iran.

Sleepy says "what?"
 
But why can’t the Israel’s accept a two state solution with a people who behead babies merely because they are Israelis?
This is arguably the most disheartening thing about the whole situation. No sane person can be willing to behead a baby, murder people at random, rape or pillage unless they have been so filled with hatred they are convinced they are not doing it to human beings. And now we hear the military commander of Israel say the Palestinians are animals and will be treated as such.

He said the terrorists who did this are animals, which is HAMAS. He did not call all Palestinians animals. AOC tried to get away with that on social media and she was corrected. Terrorists that cut the heads of babies off ARE animals. This was not an act of war, but of murder with aggravating circumstances (to put it mildly), it is the most heinous act one could possibly do. They deserve to be treated as terrorist non-combatants and executed on site. I thought you were smart enough to not get caught in that lie and spread it.

Regardless of the remarks from the Israeli side, you can be sure that those targeted will be military aged Palestinian males perceived as a threat. Not the elderly and toddlers. Some of them will die unfortunately as collateral victims, but they won't be the targets.

The distinctions between the two sides are very, very clear.

Oh, okay. No doubt about it the terrorists who did such heinous acts deserve no mercy. I was unaware that AOC tried to get away with a lie, I don't pay her much attention. I was not intentionally lying, I just heard what he said and assumed he was talking about all Palestinians. There can be no doubt that many many Palestinians who did not participate in the slaughter will be on the receiving end of the reckoning. And I suspect a lot of people - some of them on this board - will cheer at their demise with the same zeal a lot of Palestinians cheered at the original invasion. It's a real life Hatfields vs McCoys. Maybe the son of the Israeli leader can marry the daughter of a Hamas leader. I wonder if that would quiet thngs down.
