Shouldn't it be more of a counterattack instead of an offensive?

Yes.

Some people need to realize that not all situations can be resolved by talking.

When dealing with Middle Eastern Muslim countries, when has talking worked anywhere close to long term?  Maybe short of massive bribery money.

Two American soldiers fighting for the Israeli Defense Force were killed fighting in the Gaza Strip on Sunday.

Max Steinberg, 24, and Sean Carmeli, 21, both U.S. citizens, were among 13 Israeli soldiers and 65 Palestinians killed during the first major ground battle of the ongoing fighting between Israel and Hamas, according to ABC News.

So, whaddaya think about that ^^^?  Not, "Americans visiting Israel killed by rocket/stray bullet/splodeydope while in Israel" but as members of the Israeli Army.

From what I read, neither has served in the American armed forces.


Also, have not been to nationalreview.com in a while.  Whoo-eee are those folks hot to shoot up Russia or Russia's proxies in Ukraine.  Must be taking hits off the same bottle of Geritol Sen McCain uses.

No. Anytime the religion of peace is attacked, its obvious the aggressor is the aggressor. Th religion of peace, by its very definition, can only spread peace, harmony, and tolerance for other cultures/religions.

So Israel's Security Council UNANIMOUSLY shut down Kerry's temporary truce proposal, then hours later, agreed with each to a temporary truce for humanitarian aid.

How much more ineffective can our administration look when two groups that pretty much hate each other come to an agreement in spite of us? There was a photo going around yesterday of Netanyahu and Kerry shaking hands. There couldn't be more annoyance in someone's eyes as Netanyahu's in the photo. We truly are becoming the "community organizers" of the world. Protests, signs, and hashtags instead of real diplomacy.

Some days even my lucky rocketship underpants won't help.


Bring me my Broadsword and a clear understanding.
Get up to the roundhouse on the cliff-top standing.
Take women and children and bed them down.
Bless with a hard heart those that stand with me.
Bless the women and children who firm our hands.
Put our backs to the north wind.
Hold fast by the river.
Sweet memories to drive us on,
for the motherland.
