... Attacked by HAMAS by land, sea and air. Hostages taken from Israeli territory, families, small children to adults. 1000 injured, so far 70 dead.
Israel has attacked Gaza..
Israeli missed any and all intelligence.
Since TFG didn't have a problem selling us out, did he sell out Israel, via his friends in Saudi Arabia and other places?

Leave it to Don Jr and tweeting videos of naked bodies from Israel. TFG sent out message that is us all Biden's fault. Too bad the GOP screwed up our government leaving an empty speaker's ... "Just so we understand what we’re up against,” Trump Jr. wrote next to the video, which showed the almost naked body in the back of a pick-up truck, alongside heavily armed men. Hundreds have died after Hamas fired rockets and sent troops into Israel on several fronts in a surprise early morning attack Saturday. “Just so we all understand who the left is continually boosting at the expense of our #1 ally abroad. One day this savagery will come here because not only are we allowing it but we are encouraging it &funding it. www.rawstory.com/donald-trump-jr-2665824958/ |

Republicans are blaming Biden for releasing that money to Iran for the return of our citizens for what is happening in Israel.
I read none of the money has been spent.
This is the State Department Spokesperson.
Matthew Miller….
”Let's be clear: the deal to bring U.S. citizens home from Iran has nothing to do with the horrific attack on Israel. Not a penny has been spent, and when it is, it can only go for humanitarian needs like food and medicine. Anything to the contrary is false.”

The last sentence says it all in the post. Because the truth no longer matters to the Republicans.
Biden-Harris HQ
”1. The money goes to vetted non-profits to pay for food and medicine without ever entering Iranian government hands
2. None of it has even been spent yet anyway
Some might say “truth matters.”
The above was in response to this from the idiot Chris Christie…
”Biden’s appeasement of Israel’s enemies has invited this war against Israel. Appeasement anywhere never works. We must do whatever it takes to support the State of Israel in its time of grave danger, and we must end the scourge of Iran-backed terrorism. This terrorism is funded by Biden’s idiotic release of $6 billion to the Iranians.
The Hamas war against Israel is now the second war started under Biden’s failed presidency, first by Russia in Ukraine and now by Hamas in Israel. Both could have been deterred by strong American leadership. Under my presidency, America will restore the deterrence Biden has foolishly given away.

Pence has found his backbone. Former Vice President Mike Pence came out swinging at Donald Trump and the Republican Party Saturday in a vicious rebuke of foreign policy which Pence blamed for Saturday’s attacks on Israel.Speaking in Iowa, Pence put partial blame for the attacks on, “voices of appeasement like Donald Trump, Vivek Ramaswamy and Ron DeSantis that I believe have run contrary to the tradition in our party that America is the leader of the free world.” He said many Republicans have, “embraced the language of isolationism and appeasement," according to a report in Politico. Speaking directly about the Israel attacks, which have seen hundreds killed and a declaration of war from the country’s prime minister, he said, “This is also what happens when you have leaders in the Republican Party signaling retreat on the world stage." Pence has made foreign policy – particularly support for Ukraine – a cornerstone of his campaign to become the Republican’ Party's presidential nominee. Trump, Ramaswamy and many on the right of the party have vocally objected to funding Ukraine. www.rawstory.com/foreign-policy-mike-pence/ |

Oh, and we don't have an ambassador in Israel thanks to the blocks in the Senate.
And the mess of Tuberville and his 'white nationalists' affecting our military readiness.
Upper ranking military have and some are considering resigning...

It's horrible news. So much suffering by innocent civilians. And of course Republicans will blame. They love placing blame while doing absolutely nothing.

Even Fox News is debunking the lie the Republicans are spreading… ACYN… ”Griffin: The $6 billion is still currently held in a Qatari bank account with U.S. Treasury oversight. The money came from Iranian oil sales to South Korea and did not include U.S. Taxpayer dollars.” In response to the above… Aaron Rupar ”Fox News reporter debunks lie spread today by range of GOP elected officials” x.com/acyn/status/1710725171865166204?s=61&t=j45uMgNk1i8O0YllKF58nw |

What I fear they are going to bring down on their own people just proves it. |

This is a very serious situation with probable global implications. I pray earnestly for our president that he will have wisdom to guide our country in this concerning event. And elaine I wish I could hug you. How frightening this is for you! I am praying and will continue praying that God will wrap His arms around you and that He will hold your nephew tight in protection. |

elaine I am so sorry For your entire family. I am sending a ton of stay alive and well thoughts to your nephew. I have a friend who lives 6 months in Seattle and 6 months with her family in Tel Aviv. She is here right now, but I am sure she is worried sick about her parents and brother (and his family).

This is an interesting analysis of the situation. www.politico.com/news/magazine/2023/10/07/israel-hamas-attack-00120498“ Dennis Ross: I think the main reason this is happening now is because of the prospect of the U.S.-Saudi-Israeli deal. Hamas understands this is a huge transformative event, and they are trying to create a circumstance where it will be difficult for Saudi Arabia to do it right. This is not spur of the moment. What’s interesting is you had the Iranian supreme leader giving a speech this past week where he attacks the idea of normalization with the Zionist entity. This attack was clearly something planned over a long period of time: the fact that they had hang gliders, they had prepared to breach the fence, they did a barrage of rockets as a way of overwhelming Israel’s air defense system, Iron Dome.” That makes sense; we will have to see if it is accurate. |

Sending prayers for your nephew and all Israelis, elaine . And your assessment of Hamas is absolutely correct. Other nations in the area have pushed to normalize relations with Israel but Hamas has never tried to find a peaceful solution, preferring instead to normalize war and bloodshed. |

Strange how all these crafty/card-making influencers I follow on Instagram who have no problems commenting on major political and world events (as is their right, of course) have been noticeably silent today.
