We reported over the weekend that Israel has mustered its largest build-up of tanks and armored personnel carriers since 2014 at a deployment area along the border with Gaza and that "all-out war" looks inevitable after weeks of heightened tensions with Hamas. This after special UN envoy for the Middle East, Nickolay Mladenov late last week warned the UN Security Council that "we remain on the brink of another potentially devastating conflict."
It now appears Israel is ready to act, as on Monday Defense Minister Avigdor Lieberman told Israeli parliament that he's been left with "no choice" but to launch military action against Hamas militants. Last week rockets were launched from the Gaza Strip, with one landing dangerously near the densely populated city of Tel Aviv, and unrest along the border fence has continued largely unabated for months.

During his bellicose speech before lawmakers, Lieberman threatened invasion of Gaza: “Wars are only conducted when there is no choice, and now there is no choice,” the defense minister said. He indicated that anything less than the “toughest response” to Hamas is not being considered as Tel Aviv has “exhausted the other options.”
He said of protests which Israeli forces have somewhat routinely fired upon as Palestinians approach the fence and a security "no-go" zone: “There is no popular uprising,” and added, “There is violence organized by Hamas. Fifteen thousand people don’t come by foot to the border at their own will. They come by bus and are paid.”
Lieberman's accusation that Hamas pays large sums to protesters comes as international human rights groups have frequently decried Israel's lose of live ammo to stop protesters from approaching the fence, which have over the past six months resulted in dozens of Palestinian casualties.
The defense minister said further that Hamas “controls the levels of the flames,” but Israel can take deterrent and defensive measures, according to the Jerusalem Post. “I don’t believe in reaching an arrangement with Hamas,” he argued. “It hasn’t worked, doesn’t work and won’t work in the future.”

Well, somethings gotta give. Hamas needs to be destroyed for sure and it'd be nice if it was from within. However, there is only so much one can take when having to live constantly under fire. What the Palestinians need to do is revolt against Hamas so they can have a better life. Western countries have send billions in aide to Palestine which has not reached those who it was intended. Hamas has taken that money to arm themselves and use the population as collateral damage. We need to stop sending money first, and help the Palestinians get rid of Hamas.

Hopefully Israel does it right this time. No more half measures. Hamas is like a cancer and needs the same cure.
Is that based on not exterminating the Indians in North America and the Aboriginals in Australia and the Blacks on South Africa as having a bad outcome?

Indians and Aboriginals will not be in revolt any time soon and when you need a lab rat or a person that can be deposed of without any headlines like the KSA setting an example is doing there are lots to choose from and nobody looks for any that go missing.

The US has ruled Central America with an iron fist for 100 years and their control has never been stronger so 'rebel' is a bullshit word and always has been.

The director of investigations for a watchdog group recently disclosed that a migrant caravan moving from Central America to the United States is being used for human trafficking. He also confirmed sightings of non-Central American nationals and alleged gang members.

Migrant caravans that travel from Central America to the United States' southern border have turned out to be a convenient way to conceal some of the worst of international crimes: child smuggling.
Seven unaccompanied children have been reportedly saved from a second caravan, which just left Guatemala City, by Guatemalan law enforcement officers, according to a report by Judicial Watch published Thursday. The second caravan consists of some 1,500 migrants, while the first, much larger caravan of 7,500 is currently moving through Mexico, some 1,100 miles from the US border.

Hundreds Leave Migrant Caravan on the Way to US Border – Mexican Authorities

According to the report, the children have been taken into custody by authorities and their health is being assessed. In the meantime, the smugglers have been arrested by law enforcement. "This caravan deal presents an opportunity for incredible criminal activity," said Chris Farrell, Judicial Watch's director of investigations.

President Donald Trump has signed legislation imposing new sanctions against Hizbullah, the Iran-backed terrorist group behind the 1983 Beirut barracks bombings.
Speaking Thursday at a White House event marking the 35th anniversary of the attack that killed 241 Marines, Trump said, "No terrorist group other than al-Qaida has more American blood on its hands."
Trump is also taking credit for reimposing sanctions on Iran after he pulled out of the 2015 Iran nuclear accord, in part by citing its support for international terrorist groups. Trump is promising even tougher actions against Iran after most sanctions against the country return to effect on Nov. 5.
The bill expands the list of those who can be sanctioned for doing business with Hizbullah.

99.8% of the people on the planet are beginning to see that as the only pattern Jews can ever come up with. If you can't kill them off with a cocktail of exotic diseases you kill off their main food supply and when they kill a cow they are hunted to the point of extinction. You recognize the pattern right?
If they could get Arrafat's wife to poison him I can assure you they are hard at work subverting people in Gaza. The PLO is in their pocket as much as Trump is. Subversion tactics in Iran, outright warfare in Syria, PR lies in NATO controlled nations.
However, there is only so much one can take when having to live constantly under fire.
Nothing attributed to Hamas has ever had a warhead yet recently a house far past their normal range was hit and rather than accept it was one of Israel's a spin was put on to show it was Hamas with a new and improved model. When that is passed off as a fact on a channel like 'Israeli News Live'. He sounds like he is aware it is a false flag story without actually saying it. I can find the link if you want it, there are many more including but not limited to two storks taking out an F-35.
What the Palestinians need to do is revolt against Hamas so they can have a better life.
So the 20 years of being under Marshall Law Israeli style as the 'better times' you are referring to. Why do you think that is used for the basic teaching that shows it should never happen to anybody, let alone for the 20 years it did. Want to bet a lot of scientific papers were written by Jews in that time? I would bet they also got the first copies of the studies done at Baffin Correctional Center when Indians were the 'subjects'.
Western countries have send billions in aide to Palestine which has not reached those who it was intended.
You do know it is sent to Israel right, push the lie and it will be a long post as the theft has been going on a long time. It will also cover how only out=dated meds are allowed in and Israel keeps the good stuff for themselves so please challenge me on this point.
Hamas has taken that money to arm themselves and use the population as collateral damage.
Crock of shit and you know it. The partial list of banned goods is enough to show they are at starvation levels and that list may appear long but it is about 5% of the real one.
We need to stop sending money first, and help the Palestinians get rid of Hamas.
Bibi would not like that, more settlements are planed. Giving it directly to Israel probably removes the 'war crime' aspect. (like making an income off the goods confiscated from the Golan Heights is, serious case of total lack of morals)
