Hamas Attacks, Israel Responds II

Imagine if this happened on 10/7 or 10/8?

"As bad as it's been, it could have been worse" I guess is comforting in some way?

 

So when Israel does something, he's able to spell out the word Israel. When Iran does this, it's too broad. This is reason #12,345 why UN is a useless and seemingly more and more of an antisemitic organization.

I condemn the broadening of the Middle East conflict with escalation after escalation.

This must stop.

We absolutely need a ceasefire.

Good job, Iran.

You killed 1 Palestinian, killed a small number of your own soldiers whilst firing the ballistic missile, had a few missiles land in Jordan, and then managed to destroy an elementary school in Israel.

If I have to explain my post about his tweet, then either you're being dishonest, or you're not paying attention to the messages Mr. Antonio has been tweeting, or just feel like arguing for the sake of arguing.

To make my point perfectly clear - he has no issues singling out Israel all the time, while almost none of his tweets mention Hamas, Hezbollah, or Iran. Today was AS GOOD A DAY AS ANY to SPECIFICALLY call out Iran, for basically (for the 2nd time this year) declaring a war on Israel. Even if his tweet didn't say TODAY, the events that unfolded happened TODAY and he tweeted TODAY. Hope that clarifies my point.

 

So your entire argument hinders upon his one tweet that didn't mention Israel by name? If you have some time to spare, feel free to look at his timeline or tweets and see for yourself.
And once again, because either you're being willfully stubborn or perhaps I'm not doing a great job of explaining, but today, the country of Iran launched close to 200 ballistic missiles towards Israel. We can argue till the cows come home whether if and how Iran is directly or Indirectly fighting Israel, but what's abundantly clear is precisely what happened today. There is zero, ZERO reason for him not to call out Iran for their actions. He didn't do it.

 

My claim is 100% accurate and irrefutable. This is all from just last week.

Mentions Israel and not Hezbollah.

I’m gravely concerned by the dramatic escalation of events in Beirut in the last 24 hours.

This cycle of violence must stop now.

All sides must step back from the brink.

The people of Lebanon, the people of Israel, as well as the wider region, cannot afford an all-out war.

Mentions Israel and not Hezbollah.

Last night I urged the Security Council to work in lock-step to help de-escalate the situation in Israel and Lebanon.

An all-out war must be avoided at all costs. It would surely be an all-out catastrophe. pic.twitter.com/QDfzo8Liau

Mentions Israel and not Hezbollah or Hamas.

The situation in Gaza is a non-stop nightmare that threatens to take the entire region with it.

Lebanon is at the brink.

The people of Lebanon, the people of Israel and the people of the world cannot afford Lebanon to become another Gaza.

What was that you said to me above? Oh, right.....I'm not going to do your work for you. Feel free to inform us of how many bombs Israel dropped today on "people" of Lebanon? How convenient of you to take the line of Mr. G and not mention Hezbollah as well. Because you know, it's kind of important to mention who it is really that Israel goes after.

Are you now done with your futile line of argument?

The five victims were named on Wednesday as Revital Bronstein, 24, from Bat Yam; Ilia Nozadze, 42, a Georgian citizen; Shahar Goldman, 30 from Lod; Inbar Segev Vigder, 33, and Nadia Sokolenco, 40. The identities of two further victims were not yet cleared for publication.

The sixth victim, Jonas Chrosis, 26, was a Greek citizen who was living in Jerusalem while he studied architecture in Tel Aviv. “He was kind-hearted and sensitive and always helped everyone,” one of his classmates told Channel 12. “He expressed infinite optimism in the face of every difficulty that came his way. He was talented, funny, and humble. He was always kind to the people around him and was a loyal friend who saw the good in everyone. He was a talented piano player.”

The terrorists, meanwhile, were named as Mohammad Mesek, 19, who was killed at the scene, and Ahmed Himouni, 25, who was seriously injured. Both men are Palestinians from the West Bank city of Hebron who were in Israel proper without a permit.

 

Ironically, to our mini debate last night on this topic.
https://www.bbc.com/news/articles/cy43j9944lno

Speaking to the UN Security Council, António Guterres said it was high time to stop what he called the "deadly cycle of tit-for-tat violence" in the Middle East.
In an earlier statement, Israel's Foreign Minister Israel Katz declared Guterres persona non grata and an "anti-Israel secretary-general who lends support to terrorists".
The comments were issued in response to Guterres initially calling for a ceasefire, but not specifically mentioning the Iran attack.

Addressing the council, the UN secretary general said he had condemned the attack in April, and "as should have been obvious yesterday in the context of the condemnation I expressed, I again strongly condemn yesterday's massive missile attack by Iran on Israel".
In a statement after the attack on social media site X, formerly Twitter, Guterres said he condemned "the broadening of the Middle East conflict with escalation after escalation".
Prior to Guterres remarks to the UN Security Council, Katz said in a statement that anyone who "cannot unequivocally condemn Iran's heinous attack on Israel does not deserve to step foot on Israeli soil".
He specifically criticised Guterres for "his anti-Israel policy since the beginning of the war".

 

Deadly clashes in Southern Lebanon today.

Details of the deadly battle in southern Lebanon this morning, in which six commandos of the IDF's Egoz unit were killed, according to the military's probe:

The Egoz commandos began an offense against a village near the border early this morning, where Hezbollah had…

This was a really nice story.

Is anyone in the West commenting on the fact that there was a Yazidi sex slave sold to a Gazan terrorist and kept in Gaza?

How about the freedom fighters and Hamas supporters on our streets? No?

No Jews, no news! https://t.co/biVx8NJwTC
