Biden gave $6 billion to Iran
Trump warned this would happen.

Israel is saying that there will be a heavy response.

Hopefully Israel wipes Hamas off of the face of the earth in retaliation

I've always been impressed by Israel's tenacity & how they've emerged victorious from the many previous attacks they've suffered from neighboring nations, even when said nations coordinated their attacks. I suspect this will be no different & I hope they operate with the 'gloves off' that needs to be the case with the type of fundamentalist enemy they face. The footage of what Hamas have been up to today leaves no question of how to respond.

Don’t think it is doable, otherwise they would a long time ago.

I think what is going to happen, is they are going to slam them hard, send boots in, and probably occupy Gaza. Hopefully, Hezbollah and other nuts won’t join in.

It sucks, all the world needed is another mess.

My sister really lucked out as she just came back from Israel earlier this week.

There are reports indicating that Hezbollah started full mobilization and announced they will declare war and join in if Israel sends their forces into Gaza, which is probably just a matter of time due to preparation. Shaping up to be another hot mess. Hopefully, it is just yapping from Hezbollah, though they are already exchanging artillery fire with Israel.

Well since we are full with Justin's roxam road crossers I doubt the turd will accept israelis fleeing their country. Furthermore in a nation where military service is mandatory (or was?) no one should be fleeing. Fight for your country.

Israel is likely the last country in the world from where people would flee from fighting because they will fight for their country. That’d be including women, whose service is also mandatory.

Hezbollah checked Israel in 2006 in Lebanon; and Hezbollah has been fighting with Assad in Syria for years, so they have way more practical military experience now in addition to much more Iranian and likely Russian funding.

There are videos of Western weapons (MANPADs, etc.) either sold by the Ukrainians or captured by the Russians being used in this incursion.

And America cleaned out its stock of 155 mm shells in Israel to send to Ukraine.

And how did Israeli intelligence not catch wind of something of this magnitude?

The West loses again. Better start getting used to it.

Hamas is a kind of two edged sword, it also does charitable works and is widely supported by Palestinians. As long as Iran provides material support, they ain't going away. Question being, is Israel willing to take on Iran ?

Of course they are a two edged sword. To their people they help out to garner support. Sad but not unexpected. Now we can hear the squad spew their vitriol in congress and say how they aren’t antisemitic and their own party refuse to hold them accountable. Sad day for Israel and Gaza as many innocent people just trying to live will have their lives forever changed!

Fuel air bombs will remove Hezbollah from their concrete fortified positions . If Syria is stupid enough to launch Sarin into northern Israel they will get a nuke back. Syria/Damascus is no more.

A sad and VERY scary day for the human race! We can hope cooler heads will prevail, but how do you deal with a group of fanatical wing nuts that have but one goal; total destruction of your country and annihilation of every citizen??

There are NO COOL HEADS in Hezbollah or Hamas. Martyrdom means all the sex you can desire from many willing virgins. How can a young terrorist say no to that?

So there is only one solution for peace, occupation of Gaza, remove the extremists.

But that was already tried once, and the Muslim Brotherhood emerged as the democratically elected rulers, who then had to be removed.

Default Don't be too sure about the response from Canada

What would help the Liberals the most? Now you are getting it. A strong support for Israel and condemnation of the HAMAS group. Maybe more.

Pay attention. It is not morality it is politics.

I think once Israel gets the bulk of things settled in Gaza and the west bank over the next week or two, they'll go back into Lebanon and probably hit Syria again, going after Hamas and Hezbollah and IRGC. There are vids of Hezbollah travelling to the northern border of Israel at the moment, which strikes me as a suicide mission, but, they are doing it, and no doubt won't have any lack of new recruits. A lot of things are depending on what Egypt and Jordan do in the next while as to what the Israelis will have to contend with and will be able to do too, and then there are the Saudis, UAE, Qatar.
May be the Iranians could send Shahed drones into Syria or Lebanon, maybe even Jordan, as an additional threat too, Ukraine certainly illustrates that risk and how it is playing out, hard to say what they presently have on hand to use though. Kind of a weird vid in terms of this guy's voice and accent, but, he illustrates the difficulties of Israeli offensive air strikes towards Iran pretty well, and it's 5 yrs old, so, some things have changed, somewhat.

Default Man's inhumanity to man...

it knows no bounds. "Love one another as I have loved you" Jesus said that and we have not paid any notice what so ever.
As I have entered very old age I am wondering if religion has done mankind any good at all. Would all this be going on if there were no religions? Or are we as a species just a bunch of ignorant war like murderers?
I guess I will soon find out but I wish we could figure out a way to stop killing one another.
Doesn't seem likely now.

Russia. Aligned with North Korea, China, Iran, Syria, Venezuela and the new puppet regimes in Africa of Mali, Libya and Syria.

The country some very right leaning folks have fallen hook line and sinker for targeted misinformation campaigns of China and Russia.

Fallen so hard that they believe Russia is a great, free country here to save the world.

As incredulous as it sounds, I’m in awe as to how successful they are.

People saying directly or indirectly that Russia should continue unimpeded at attacking independent countries.

Iran is likely behind this and Russia is rubbing their hands.

A bigger question is..

How suicidal is Hamas, Hezbollah and supporting state actors ready to move forward.

https://www.bbc.com/news/world-us-canada-67049196

Likely the US is moving assets to the area to prevent any Iranian, Syrian or others coming into the fray.

If others jump in… it could mean a much bigger war in the Middle East.

Expect longer lines at airports, restrictions traveling, higher costs, skyrocketing gas prices.

But living in Canada… we are blessed with security. Hopefully CSIS is on the ball and 5 Eyes are working hard to foil secondary attacks.

When you target a concert, dedicated to peace and kill, 260 of their participants, one side of your sword is decidedly sharper than the other.

Sounds just like the Nazi apologists.
