Israel was brutally attacked last year by Iran-backed Hamas terrorists. Approximately 1,200 men, women, children and babies were killed. Additionally, Hamas took more than 240 hostages to use as bargaining chips. Who can forget the image of Shani Louk being paraded through the streets of Gaza shortly after the attack, stripped naked and dying?
Israel is our friend in a tough neighborhood. Iran is an autocracy with no respect for human rights. Iran is dedicated to the eradication of Israel and uses proxies such as Hamas to further this goal.
I read that Hamas is insisting on retaining control of the Gaza-Egypt border as part of a ceasefire. This is nuts.
“Israel is killing innocent Palestinians with our bombs”; “It’s a moral outrage,” you say. Want to stop the killing? Focus your outrage at Iran and Hamas. Demand action to stop them.
