What else do we expect, when over 40,000 souls perish including infants, children, women, the elderly, The handicap, the sick and wounded shot dead in hospital beds, thousands starved and left to die on the streets of Gaza!!
This is the product of so much hate and cruelty on both sides, but Bibi and his war mongers are to blame for not finding ways to end this madness.
Aly Rustom
Exactly! Well said Woody!
Its only a matter of time before this blows up into a full regional conflict if a permanent ceasefire is not realized.
When that happens, there is not going to be anyway to put the genie back in the bottle.

2+2=5?
How do the actions of a single Jordanian connect to Iran? Perhaps selective vision means he's already forgotten the assistance Jordan gave Israel in shooting down Iranian missiles and drones a few months ago. An action that was at great cost to its political standing within Jordan and the middle east.
The shooter was a 50 year old truck driver. Likely decades of being humiliated by Israeli border guards and witnessing the daily humiliation the Palestinians ongoing for generations finally flipped a switch.

@ Capuchin.
2+2= 6 in Bibi's math, LOL
Capuchin
Sorry, correction. The driver was 39.

I thought it was Hamas = Isis. Bibinomics is hard to keep up with.

The "blood debt" incurred by the extreme right-wing Zionist government of Netanyahu for the 100,000+ dead and maimed in Gaza and the West Bank will have to paid with "pounds of flesh" by innocent and not so innocent Israelis. Even if we don't want to admit it, we all know the natural and inevitable consequences to expect from all the IDF's sadistic brutality and atrocities before and since October 7. The countries that have been enabling the war crimes will hardly be safer, either.

Bibi has created an Anti Israel, Anti Jewish, and possibly and Anti Semitism environment more than any other world leader or groups. The damage that this man has done to Israel and it's stands on the world stage is Incomparable.

Britian owed much of the tragedies to both the Palestinians and the Jews. The bloodshed beginning was the "Balfour declaration".After W.W.2 Britian just run away in 1948 and let you Arabs and Jews killing each other until now. Even Churchill has underestimate the Jewish settlers appetite, they don't want a 50/50 deal but they took all the Palestinian lands, even Goland heights the Syrian lands.

Woz gonna leave a hair- breadth comment. But Israel Defence Force in another mission. Just kill, hope that you young fellas can deal with PTSD as you've murdered untold innocents. Probably best to go top yesself.
Aly Rustom
elephant- agree with everything that you said, but would like to make a little amendment-
This isn't about Arabs and Jews. Its about Arabs and Zionists. The Sephardi Jews are Arabs. Many of which came to Israel from other Arab countries. The main beef is with the Ashkenazi Jews who are not of the region at all but came to colonize Palestine. They are Europeans, and they are the ones pushing the Zionist Agenda. This is not an Arab vs Jew conflict at all. Its Arabs vs Zionists.

Aly Rustom,
"" This isn't about Arabs and Jews. Its about Arabs and Zionists. ""
Yes always has been always will be.
Arabs and Jews got along very well before the Zionists arrival in Palestine, in fact many Arab Jews lived among Arab Muslims and Arab Christians all over Palestine doing business and living along side each other.
Mosques , Churches, and Synagogue were open to all faiths NO Exceptions the only requirements was for women to cover up with a scarf and wash up before entering certain mosques.
Those traditions still exists in many countries in the Middle east and many parts of the world.

Wouldn't it be equitable to label the 3 'militants' or 'members of the IDF terrorist organization'.
Aly Rustom
Absolutely! But I would like everyone to refrain from saying Arabs and Jews. The 2 are not mutually exclusive. Many are both.
Absolutely! Even in Iran today there are synagogues and Jewish members of Parliament.

@ Aly Rustom,
Yes I know about Synagogues in Yamen, Morocco, Algeria, Libya, Egypt, and Syria.
