oh really what good will that maybe help us now
Joe, you are a brick, and thanks so much for your help and advice. The Israeli commanders would like to learn all about how to defend their citizens from being wiped out in a manner consistent with international humanitarian law that prioritizes the protection of civilians [but not Israeli civilians]. Can you please make available to them the planning documents from the US bombing raids on Dresden in February 1945. Unless I have the wrong atlas page open Dresden was even closer to Washington DC, the US-declared Capital than Gaza is to Jerusalem, the Israeli-declared capital. After that plans for the nuclear strikes on Hiroshima and Nagasaki would also provide wise advice from Israel’s closest ally on how to properly proceed. And to give us an idea of the size of the task, how much “humanitarian aid” did the US need to send to Dresden, Hiroshima and Nagasaki? Joe please understand Israel is in a war for its survival. If the Hamas ruled State of Gaza wants war, and it has said it does, it risks being completely obliterated. The USA did its bit to respect its obligations by telling the citizens of Hiroshima and Nagasaki to evacuate their cities. Indeed the Israeli Government could even translate into Arabic some relevant parts of the letter the US dropped on Nagasaki. Estimates of how many people the American bombing of Japan killed vary but the lowest estimate is in the hundreds of thousands.
Biden and Netanyahu go way back. They’ve known each other for over 30 years now.
There is a lot of information around about the United States bombings of Hiroshima and Nagasaki
On 6 and 9 August 1945, the United States detonated two atomic bombs over the Japanese cities of Hiroshima and Nagasaki respectively. The bombings mostly killed civilians. Estimates vary but at a minimum it is estimated that the US bombings, its “prompt and utter destruction” of these two cities killed no less than 200,000, yes TWO HUNDRED THOUSAND CIVILIANS and that is aside of the warm up destruction of 64 other cities.
In the final year of World War II, the Allies prepared for a costly invasion of the Japanese mainland. This undertaking was preceded by a conventional bombing and firebombing campaign that devastated 64 Japanese cities. The Allies called for the unconditional surrender of the Imperial Japanese armed forces in the Potsdam Declaration on 26 July 1945, the alternative being “prompt and utter destruction”. The Japanese government ignored the ultimatum.
POTUS why are you lecturing Israel about humanitarian aid and when and how to destroy the enemy? Japan isn’t and never was anywhere near America. Japanese terrorists did not invade the United States and rape, torture, murder, and burn alive US citizens.
There is no evidence the alleged “”missiles” are offensive weapons. They are simply fireworks being sent up to celebrate Mohammad Allah’s birthday. And they are being fired from the grounds if Gaza Hospital because Allah is in the psychiatric ward there. Indeed all the damage to our neighbors’ homes is caused by their vain efforts to shoot down our fireworks
The only water they should give them is to flood the tunnels! The US is too preoccupied with the “nebach” Gazans. What about the abducted Israelis? Where is the uproar and the compassion for them?! Let the Gazans pressure Hamas to release the hostages and then they can get water.
As if Jews need permission from the Goyim to defend ourselves…
The truth is Biden and his handlers could care less about us yidden, they just know the politically correct phrase to use before demanding Israel commit suicide and feed Hamas.
“You have a right to defend for yourself, but you must feed the “innocent” people in Gaza.
As if there are any innocent people there and as if this is a noble thing to do… The Reshoyim want to teach us morality
