  1. Blame Biden as well he left them our weapons and gave them money

  2. Both israel and Gaza agree that hummus is delicious and healthy, so lets build on that

  3. Hamas vs israel : israelis in shelters
    Hamas + hezbolla vs israel : israelis back to Europe and russia

  4. Can we first form a plan ?

  5. level it. put the gazans on ships or in refugee camps on the borders of arab countries. build a new border and then say that they are the arab countries responsibility. they can have complete freedom, but it is the responsibility of the arab countries.

  6. Great match will be given from 3 direction…

  7. حلم الخروج من الشرق الأوسط للإسرائيلي أصبح خيال حتى الهروب للخارج لا نسمح لك به بعد الآن دفع الثمن بالدماء منذ اللحظة.

  8. 🇮🇳 🤝 🇮🇱 Palestine websites hacked by Indian cyber force group 😂

  9. The past few days on Israel is essentially their 9/11 and they frankly should not be surprised it happened to them.

    Like this wouldn't have happened if they did not facilitate the conditions for Gaza Palestinians to what is essentially an open air prison for all their lives. Having their families bombed since childhood would indoctrinate anyone into committing heinous massacres against their perpetrators.

    These boomers in the comments be too close minded just because Israel is full of less dark-skin people

  10. Now Israel is saying Hamas is killing children and beheading them. Bro I'm sorry I need to see the bodies before I believe anything Israel says

  11. Stay strong palestine 🇵🇸🇵🇸

  12. I guess we'll see how well Hamas' flying lawnmowers hold up against the IDF.

  13. Israel shows far more care to innocent Palestinian lives DURING DEFENSE operations than Hamas does ever.

  14. They elected Hamas they are just as complacent as the terrorists themselves level Gaza to the ground and leave nothing to return to.

  15. Why hamas is not using rockets now on the 300k troops on the border?

  16. Forget ground troups. Use tactical nukes.

  17. SUPPORT PALESTINE FROM ALGERIA 🇵🇸❤️‍🔥🇩🇿☪️🏴

  18. I pray Israel changes their gun laws. So many Men who were in the military at home on the boarder NOT armed. The citizens could have easily defeated Hamas had they had rifles. They were taking video of infiltrators from elevated position’s at homes and could have engaged them easily. All men need to be armed. Clearly you cannot count on the Government to protect you.

  19. Stand against Israel. May they fall and never regroup!

  20. 1. Israel is not in violation of law.
    2. Palestinians support Hamas. Palestinians breed Hamas.
    3. Muslim men commit 80% of terrorist attacks worldwide.

    Islam is an anti-human cult.
    Islam is anti-human.
    Islam was created by a warmongering merchant.
    And to Muslims, a WARMONGERING MERCHANT IS CONSIDERED TO BE "THE PERFECT MAN"

  21. Everyone started talking about the civilians when the Israelis fell. Where were you when the Palestinian civilians were falling over the course of 80 years? Where were you, hypocrites who claim humanity?,..,.,

  22. What will happen if Russia supply weapons to Hamas?
    Thousands of isreali soldiers dead then what?

  23. They're not going in to rescue hostages. They are going in to end the rule of Hamas in Gaza.

  24. Since 1948, Israel has been killing the Palestinians, Muslims and Christians, without mercy. It arrests children as young as 5 years old, tortures prisoners to death, bombs Gaza, destroys buildings, kills innocent people, and carries out ethnic cleansing against the Palestinians. It does not want an independent state for Palestine. God is with us and will one day triumph for the oppressed Palestine.

  25. Palestine didn't even exist back then. That area was mostly under Jordan and Egypt. Problem is Israel is a non-muslim state and Islam spews hate about non muslim and mostly about jews. Hamas is full of cowards and rapists. Since many people support those rapists we know a lot about what they might one day do to us. Even after you show incredible hospitality to muslims, they will always say they are discriminated against.

  26. It appears Israel let their guard down on purpose in order to validate a full invasion

  27. israel calls it eminent domain by any means necessary. Even to the point of sacrificing their own people

  28. Eyes for eyes;ears for ears.
    Wish israelis all the best 🙏🙏

  29. All unrest and instability are 100% the fault of the Iranian regime, this regime has proven that it does not adhere to any law. This regime must be overthrown, we have no other choice. The people of Iran also want the destruction of the regime

  30. ''As I said to Moses, I will give you all the land you set foot on. The limits of this land will be as follows: to the south, the desert; and, to the north, the Lebanese mountains; on the east, the great river Euphrates and all the land of the Hittites; and, to the west, the Mediterranean Sea'' — GOD GAVE THE TITLE OF THE LAND TO ISRAEL, AND EVERYONE IS OWABLE TO ISRAEL. THE LIMIT GOES TO THE EUPHRATES! ! ! YAWEH GAVE THIS LAND ALL TO ISRAEL. PALESTINIANS IRAN IRAQ MUST LEAVE THERE. IT IS FROM ISRAEL TO THE EUPHRATHES – GOD SAID IT!

  31. I support no innocent death. But where was everyone when just over the last 5 years alone (lets not even talk about the 70years) , Israelis KIDNAPPED TORTURED and killed in front of their familes , men and boys. Boys kidnapped and killed so they wouldnt grow up as men

  32. So is this the end of Gaza and Palestinians?

  33. Does hamas works for isreal? Or does it work for qatar and turkey?

  34. How dare they compare this to 9/11. They only compare it to get Americans on their side to justify their atrocities.

    Give me back my tax dollars.

  35. Free Palestine stop Israel

  36. purge them all palestinians

  37. If I occupied your land,force you to evict your home,killing your family member in this process,and then doing everything that your life became miserable, what would you do? Hamas is villain in your eyes but the truth is, you force him to choose this path from the beginning, 1947 where was Israel and 2023 where is Israel now, Think about it, maybe you will find your answer, if you have minimum humanity left you would never support Israel…..
