In response to rockets fired from #Gaza at #Israel, the Israeli Air Force conducted strikes on about 80 targets, including this training facility which was used to store weapons. Hamas deliberately positioned it next to schools, a hospital & a mosque. For Hamas, nothing is sacred pic.twitter.com/prFCH7RpiE

BREAKING: The Assad regime & Iranian Quds Force are behind the Islamic Jihad rocket attack on #Israel. Hamas is responsible for everything transpiring in #Gaza & emanates from it & will bear the consequences for the terror it seeks to inflict upon Israeli civilians. pic.twitter.com/gr8iVIzCwh

So the next time someone calls the Gaza riots “peaceful protests,” tell them this: Gazans have a crossing into Israel, THAT THEY USE, and on October 27th, 2018, they fired a rocket at it. pic.twitter.com/5uBHcNQDQt

nice to see the IDF bombing so many empty buildings and doing NOTHING to stop the attacks. Our ‘leaders’ continue to give us BS and want so badly to believe the lies of Hamas that it reminds me of Rabin and Oslo.
When with the Israeli government actually do something constructive and hit Hamas instead of empty buildings??
