In reply to the discussion: Just imagine calling for a cease fire on [View all]moonshinegnomie

i have a couple of friends in Israel. based on what they have said I dont think theres a power on earth that can stop israel from wiping out any hamas supporter.
One of them lived in the US during and after 9/11. In his view Israel will do whatever it takes. and will attack anyone they think had a hand in the attack. Just like what we did after 9/11 the average Israeli considers any action against Hamas to be justified now.
They think that if Hamas starts executing hostages then the Gaza will be flattened. They really dont care about the consequences.
