Everyone with a beating heart looks at what is happening in Gaza with horror. And then the blame game begins its endless cycle. As usual, armchair critics blame Biden. Because everything is always the fault of whoever the sitting president is. I rear ended a car, it's Biden's fault. A ship sank in the Atlantic. It's Biden…

Hamas is dedicated to the elimination of all Jews in the region.
Hamas hides in tunnels underneath their women, children and parents.
Hamas committed an atrocity that seems to be drifting away in the public consciousness.
Hamas promises more violence.
Hamas could have ended this conflict by negotiating peace.
Hamas could end the conflict today and save thousands of lives.
Hamas watches their own people starve as they spend billions of donations from Qatar and Iran to build tunnels and launch missiles into Israel.
Hamas uses their babies as shields. They are not warriors. They are devious monsters.
With all the financial support Hamas has received from their "religious" leaders they could have been building infrastructure, feeding their people, negotiating nationhood. Instead, they refused the two state solution, allowed their children to starve and invited the destruction of their neighborhoods. Invited it.
I ask what Americans would do if a paramilitary organization were to have slaughtered over a thousand people at a music festival. Raped and tortured peaceful people. Beheaded children.
Would we allow that organization to hide in tunnels? Would we not seek their surrender or death? What if there were Neo-Nazis in tunnels right now, right here - who were pledged to the destruction of our nation? Would we walk away? Could we?
I don't have the answer to how Israel could approach this situation differently. I welcome suggested solutions. But they won't be solutions unless they include the complete and total elimination of a Hamas - proxy assassins operating under the direct influence of Iran and by extension - with the approval of Putin.
The horrors of Gaza are the perfect distraction from Ukraine. There is a real genocide happening in Ukraine. Where is the rage at those who oppose assisting the Ukrainians who are being slaughtered by Russians? Ukrainians who simply wanted to exist peacefully as a democracy. A people whose only mistake was having a border with Russia. Where were the campus protests while Republicans held up support for our allies?
Putin is playing three dimensional chess and we are playing checkers.
Hamas have the same values as the Nazis of WWII Germany. The same values as the military leaders of Japan when they bombed Pearl Harbor. The people of Germany and Japan in the early 20th century supported them. They paid a horrible price.
The children of Gaza are the victims. The adults who caused this should look in the mirror.
October 7th is just a preview if Hamas is allowed to survive and rebuild.
Thanks for saying all of this, Bill. I agree with it all. The Palestinians have been treated badly by Israel. Everything they have done, especially allowing settlers to go into the West Bank and take good land, has been done without any respect to the people or their rights. Hamas was an outgrowth of this treatment. One thing I want to add is that "Palestinian" should not be equated with Hamas. It was Hamas who committed the horrible actions of October 6, not Palestinians.
Thank you Bill. I’m so tired of Israel being blamed shunned and vilified around the globe. I’m so tired of Jews who are living elsewhere being blamed. I cannot understand why young people are casting their lot in with a terrorist organization. Imagine if your country was invaded by 4000 militants and other hangers on to commit murder, rape and take hostages. What would you do? Clearly the Arab countries who support Hamas and Iran have a superior PR system. I don’t know if you read the article in the NYT about Sinwar. He states that he is prepared to sacrifice the whole population of Gaza in order to fulfill his aims.
Thank you Annie.
