This war have already caused multiple innocent people to die,,,
Which is bad

ivolt:
NO, Hamas did not. Iran forced Hamas into attacking Israel because Saudi Arabia and Israel were close to normalizing their relationship and isolating Iran further. The aim of the attack is to destroy the upcoming Saudi-Israel peace deal

motayoayinde:
NOPE.

IT IS THE IDF THAT IS SHOCKED BY THE SCALE OF HAMAS OPERATION AND RESILIENCE.

BOMBING EVERYWHERE IN GAZA IS ALWAYS THE DEFAULT, UNTHINKING RESPONSE OF IDF TO HAMAS ATTACKS,

IT'S NOT NEW AND IT NEVER CHANGES ANYTHING.

HAMAS KEEPS GETTING STRONGER.

Mcreloaded:
Any which way you look at it, Israel now have more than enough excuse to finish Hamas once and for all.
When 2 elephant fight its the grass that suffers it.
The women and children will be the collateral damage when e erythinf cools off.
Hamas should have just stick to kidnapping of soldiers and at most the men and jot the u necessary killings of women and children.

Tozocalamity:
Hamas leaders and footsoldiers have shallow mind. As a result of their they made a very poor decision to attack isreal in a suprise attack . Not only did they attack isreal and caused hundred ofs isreali deaths, They also took hostages with the wrong assumption that isreal wil negotiate in order to secure the realese of the abducted in exchange for imprisoned palestinian /hamas fighters. The consequences of making Poor decision can be very catastrophic.

I'm not so sure about that. Hezbollah is already firing missiles on IDF positions on the border towns of Lebanon. Before it gets to the point of "finish Hamas once and for all," who knows what other paramilitaries would've joined the conflict openly. Iran is just looking for an excuse to do just that. Khemenei has already made an appearance of solidarity with Hamas. In any case, Hamas will always lose, even if not exterminated altogether.

Exactly.

Whatever came over them to do this, only time will tell.

Hamas counted on later support from countries an groups sympathetic to them when the Israelis start countering them.

The US war ship now stationed nearby is what is really deterring those they banked on for back up.

It was a strategic move by the US stationing the war ship close bye.

Time will still tell. If the war ship would be enough deterrent to the other would be actors.

BentizilL0:
Israel is overrated...

You mean to say UK, US and their allies response??

Israelterrorist:
Isreal is over rated
Ordinary ragtag militias are giving them a bloody nose, imagine it was iran, Israel would have been wiped off completely from the earth.
I still blame Hitler for not getting rid of these terrorists when he had the chance to.
Dogs own people my foot

Franzinni:
Ww3 is cooking already ... It is slowly gathering momentum.. in real time

Buccalcavity2:
Since I've been monitoring this, Its the same pattern. Hamas attacks with rockets and Israel retaliates, then they call for a truce. The difference this time is that Hamas bridged the border and physically did what it had always stood for on Israeli citizens and covered it on camera., thereby humiliating and proving Israel right that it's existence is at risk if Hamas exists.
Make no mistake. If those over 5000 rockets found its way into Israel alongside the land assault, Israel would have been history last Saturday!

You nailed it.

My point as well.

NSNO:

This is an intelligent take on the issue. Because this conflict does not make sense to me.

misreal:

In 1948,An underated Israel properly dealt with 6nations in the Arab world in just six days.
Guess what,Iran will not near and underated Israel in this modern times.
Can you tell me why Iran is not yet attacking Israel?...
Rag tag militias that are being smoked out already..
Na only I sabi wetin u mean by bloody nose

ExudeLoveToAll:


A second carrier strike group has been notified to enter the theatre, It will arrive in two weeks time.

That's a sufficient deterrent, the combined stealth capabilities from F35, F22raptors, F16, submarines, cruisers, destroyers, frigates and other capabilities is enough to deter any intending aggressor who wishes to join .

Do they know how to calculate anything?
