Ask Me Help Desk - What a tragedy in Israel.

What does Clueless Joe think he is going to accomplish in Israel today ? Israel is in a 2 and possibly 3 front war . They are preparing for major offensive in Gaza . And this clown decides it is a good idea to fly in so that now Israel has to arrange for his security also.

Maybe he thinks he had credibility to do shuttle diplomacy . No one there wants to meet with him

Maybe he thinks he can show empathy by comparing the attacks on homes by Hamas terrorists with almost losing his prized car in a fire.

Has he heard that zoom meetings make travelling half way around the world unnecessary ?

This is all about him. You will hear during the campaign next year about what great leadership he showed flying into a war zone to demand that Israel restrain and show proportionality in their response from a 2 front invasion.

I think that's about right. I have felt that this whole deal of Biden's trip had a certain political odor to it from the word go.

Bibi has to put the Gaza response on hold so he can baby sit Clueless . But I will give credit where credit is due. Considering that the lefties of his party own him on all his other agendas ;he appears to be genuinely behind Israel so far

The Biden Whitehouse has concluded that it is unlikely that Israel caused to destruction of the Gaza hospital yesterday with the resulting 500 deaths. There seems to be no end to how far these animals of Hamas will go in pursuit of their political goals and to destroy Israel.

and yet there are world wide protests over the hospital . I got my own theory . The Islamic jihadists planted explosives at the Hospital that detonated when their failed rocket "accidentally " misfired

As it turns out, the hospital bombing story was wrong in a few minor respects. It was actually not Israel who did the damage but, strange to say, it was Hamas. It was a rocket intended for Israel that landed far short. Also, the hospital was actually not hit. It landed in a parking lot adjacent to the building. And there were not 500 fatalities. It is likely closer to 100. But other than those few unimportant details, the story was basically correct.

No surprise here .

It's a commin. There is no preparing for what is about to hit. You can Either stay tuned in or Run For Cover. I suggest running for Cover. You will find Cover In Jesus only.

Cover in Jesus? Even Christians will die.

Unfortunately. But I would Consider that a good thing. I'm not sure I'd want to live through the Wrath that is coming (in fact it is already here). Those who Don't know Christ Jesus (Jews) will ultimately Run to him. But only when the SH*T hits the fan. At least that is what we have seen throughout all of History. It has to hit hard before they start to cry out.

No, the Jews won't ultimately run to Jesus.

Israel is being attacked from all directions and the demand is for them to restrain . If as is being predicted above that "wrath" is being unleashed then why place any restraints on Israel at all ?

Israel should blast a big hole in the Rafah crossing and then give the people of Gaza 3 days to get out before Gaza City is reduced to a sink hole. If Clueless Joe wants to give them food ,medicine etc. then he should deposit it in the Sinai desert . Then the UN, Qatar, Turkey, should cooperate in the extradition of the criminal Hamas leaders who cowardly hide away in those nations .

If the world does not want the conflagration, then they are demanding restraint from the wrong party.

All these calls for a ceasefire and Israeli restraint are a day late and a dollar short. Those Hamas criminals must be dealt with.

BTW BLM praising Hamas is all you need to know about them .

They say they want the region "decolonized " .

That is a vanilla word for expulsion and extermination

Crazy how Israel gets attacked and everybody cries - Kill, Kill, KILL ISRAEL!
Just think, It would have been a different story if Ukraine hadn't been attacked...meaning Israel would not be backed by America. Do you think the current administration wants to back Israel? Not at all. This will most likely have a negative effect on them in the next election.

Why do you think that is the case?

13 attacks on US troops in the ummah this week has caused at least a dozen injuries. All the attacks have come from Iran proxies.

You would think that it's just a matter of time before we have fatalities or lose some aircraft.

A really ignorant comment considering that Gaza has not been occupied by the Israelis since 93 and the Oslo Accords.

Clueless Joe Blah;Blah;Blah;Blah;Blah;Blah;Blah;Blah Two state solution Blah;Blah;Blah;Blah............................... .................

Biden: Israel-Hamas war must end with vision for a 'two-state solution' (cnbc.com)

The Gaza strip was a two-state solution in miniature. Mr. Biden, how did that work out?

Since 1967 we've heard that peace will come when there is are 2 states . Then they can live in peace. This is an invented trope that was never part of any settlement between nations or the UN . It is sorta like the elusive search for the Holy Grail. It was never part of any UN Resolution . Between 1948 and 1967 the Arab nations controlled all the land in question in Judea and Samaria Gaza was Egyptian . You see how anxious they are to get it back . They won't open the gate into Sinai to allow Palestians to enter (another case where a wall works )

No Palestinian state was created . Why . Because in truth they don't give a rat's a$$ about the people of Palestine and they don't want the problem of Palestinians in their land

Black September - Wikipedia

It can't happen when one of those state's primary doctrine is the eradication of the other state and the extermination of it's people .

When there is a Palestinian state it will only mean that more and more sophisticated weapons will legally be exported to the Palestinians. `

Which would suit Iran just fine. In fact the whole conflict needs to be looked at in that context. 1967 Iraq joined the Arab nations that attacked Israel. They entered into the conflict through Jordan. Today Iraq is controlled by Iran courtesy of the emperor's desire to make Iran a regional hegemon. Iran funnels weapons to the Palestinas . Iran provides more sophisticated weapons to Hezbollah which controls the STATE of Lebanon . Iran proxies attack Israel through Syrian ,Lebanon ,and the Palestinian territories . Weapons to a Palestinian state would no longer need to be smuggled. The Palestinian State and Iran could have a recognized defense treaty .

There is a REAL Resolution 242 recognizes Israel's rights to defensible borders . How could that happen if the charter of a Palestinian State calls for the extermination of Israel ?

They are fighting over land that no one wanted until the Jews came in, put their backs and minds to work, and developed the area into what it presently is. As long as the Arabs controlled it, it was a wilderness.

and in Gaza they are turning the fertile lands that Israel cultivated in South Gaza back to desert .

All of this is interesting. Will it still be interesting when it hits our front door?
I think we'd better run for cover now before it's too late.

It's a distraction.

nah pages of debate about infant baptism on this board is a distraction This is "Current Events ".

He still has it wrong . These attacks are directed by Iran . Targeting Iran assets in Iran should be the appropriate response. ie Take out the ports where Iran's Persian Gulf fleet operate from .

I am hearing reports that I have yet to verify that the US helped bust an Israeli spy cell in Lebanon; and that contributed to a lack of intel about the Hamas attack. The cell in question was headed by Israeli Russian nationals.

Yes I've heard end times predictions many times yawn

From a Current Events angle I guess the reactions are old news . First we pledge complete support for Israel . Then ;we council restraint by Israel . Then we give material assistance (humanitarian it is called ) to the terrorists. Wash rinse repeat .

The Communist revolution in Russia was preceded by the universities becoming indoctrination camps for radical ideas. The same thing seems to be happening here.

Walt I have seen no reports of US troops on the ground although it would not surprise me. If there is a hostage rescue attempted I and sure US troops will be involved . Also it is not uncommon for US troops to be on the ground when American equipment is introduced into a conflict .I have no doubt that Americans are in Ukraine supporting the Patriot battery (if it hasn't already been taken out by the Russians ) .
Also American special forces are covertly deployed all over the world's hot spots.

A friend showed me, by Vidio (while in Israel) American troops exiting aircraft. Apparently, there were three planeloads of American ground forces. He's still in Israel. He used to be a journalist. He is now doing interviews with other news agencies.

3 whole plane loads . Like I said ;US weapons like Patriot and Terminal High Altitude Area Defense( THAAD ) systems would require US trainers

Clueless Joe has pivoted from unconditional support for Israel to the plight of the Palestinian in Gaza. He is listening to his left flank again.

This is about an accurate and succinct a description of the ME problem as I have seen in a while.

Quote:

The Middle East conflict is framed as one of the most complex problems in the world. But, in reality, it's very simple. Israelis want to live in peace and are willing to accept a neighboring Palestinian state. And most Palestinians do not want Israel to exist.
