  1. ما هو جوك الآن يا إسرائيل ،انك تلعبين بالنار ،احذري هناك مقومين لا يخافون الموت ،يخافون الا الله .انتبهي ،اليمن على الخط ،

  2. Israelis Soldiers are the Best in the World. The Most Generous force on Earth, GOD knows & see Everythings He is now in the war against the enemy of his Children, He Knows the Truth & the Lies laid out by the Hamas & the Media

  3. Of course, in the end they will occupy the territory, only idiots believe this is "defensive" operation. That's invasion and a genocide

  4. Hamas targeted civilian villages and a music festival.

  5. I SAY ABSOLUTELLY NO TO ISRAELI OCCUPATION EVER. Have the UN act as a mediator.

  6. Congressman Mast: STOP repeating #Hamas lies about casualties numbers in #israelhamaswar A MUST WATCH >>

  7. Yea lets ask the bright minds behind the Iraq and Afghanistan wars.

  8. Gaza Judea & Samaria = Israel 🇮🇱

  9. They aren't getting the North back. Lucky if they keep the South. Free the Hostages.

  10. im already on it got to grt kids first

  11. It’s time for the Palestinians to move to Egypt or other places.

  12. Propaganda Much 😂😂😂
    Let me guess, this General works for a private military contractor 🤦🏽‍♂️

  13. You like Muslim blood???are really human ???it’s Israel have to evacuate and be judged for war crimes

  14. The tunnel is outside the Al Shifa Hospital👎

  15. Great! You have left people with dead wives, kids, parents. Now you will need to magnify occupier army status.
    What you call an own goal.

  16. My good god what is going on here,,

  17. The war can end immediately but Hamas doesn't want! All they have to do is release all the hostages and have a peace treaty with Israel. But instead, Hamas and Qatar chose not to do so! The problem here is arab can not think strategically in the same manner as Israelis. Arabs are weak emotionally and indecisive.

  18. The Palestinians must have a homeland. Bring them to Antarctica. Just protect the penguins there

  19. Occupiers gonna occupy.

  20. "security presence"… Call it what it is O C C U P A T I O N…

  21. Western liers shame on you

  22. Its not security presence, its oppression and terrorism

  23. These people are not hiding they are totally out in the open supporting a cease fire and openly display their atimosity against Israel.

  24. We need security presence now in USA

  25. Crimes of Israel, we are not stupid

  26. Ridiculous, this was all played. To steal more land of palestina

  27. From the start, it has seemed obvious to me Israel's end game is to create conditions to not allow Palestinians to ever return (or leave anything to return to) to Gaza territory once cleared by the IDF. The IDF has already signaled they are now turning their clearing operations southward, so they will continue to push the civilians into a concentrated pocket in the vicinity of the Rafa Crossing as they search and destroy Hamas remnants. My guess it they likely try to actually push most Palestinians out of Gaza and into the Sinai, despite Egypt's best efforts to stop this. I think this is why Netanyahu said Israel will provide security for Gaza for the foreseeable future. Security will mostly entail preventing Palestinians from returning to their homes rather than being an occupation force embedded with Palestinian civilians and thus a very active insurgency.

  28. After war, Palestine would be free as an independent state. Israel could not interfere anything in palestine administration and territory.

  29. Turn it into a unpopulated DMZ forever.
    Flattened, salted, and forever a no man's land. Which means no 'settlements' either.

  30. If nations were really honest..no country wants Palestinians as neighbors..but they are so quick to tell israel and Egypt what to do..smh i can't imagine living right next to someone who wants u unlive you..everyday..smh

  31. WHERE WARS ARE WON OR LOST !!

    Wars are waged by older men

    In battle rooms in countries apart.

    Who call for greater firepower

    And troops for the combat chart.

    While out among the shattered flesh

    The dreams of all have turned gray.

    So young and determined their faces were

    Till on the battlefield they lay.

    Unable to overcome their pride

    The politicians cast their vote.

    For this or that or something else

    As the rage of war sounds its note.

    Wherever wars are won or lost

    The soldiers fall like toys.

    Down through history it remains the same

    Most who die are hardly more than boys.

    Like monkeys in a revolving cage

    Man squabbles for the peanuts of power.

    When will we rise above our greed

    And become as a beautiful flower?

    Death to death, dust to dust

    The wrath of war is a horrible crime.

    It’s the beast within that still prevails

    As it has through the torments of time.

  32. I thought Biden said no reoccupation of Gaza after the conflict? Why not when its over to have a election in Gaza and West Bank and let them elect leadership and govern themselves. Makes me sick to hear people talking about running someone elses lands.

  33. After Russia, North Korea and Iran, Israel is quickly becoming the most hated country in the world.

  34. After the war rename Gaza the " Freedom Strip" a lavish beachfront oasis of resorts on the Mediterranean with modern architecture, world class dinning , shopping, education , medical & science opportunities made up of multi cultural peace seeking Arabs and Muslim civilians committed to keeping peace and prosperity in the region with a government over sight made up of Arabs, Muslims and Israeli official also committed to peace.

  35. They should go to neighboring countries 😢

  36. ISREAL IS STEALING GAZA GAS FIELDS WORHT 500 BILLLION,I SREAL AINT FOOLING NO BODY

  37. Those who fear death don't dare to live there. And the ones who live there need A-Z category securities. Lol

  38. Of course there going to need to stay. They just displaced 1.4 Million people, killed 6000 kids, and took over the land.

  39. They're 🤷🏾‍♂️already there? TF?

  40. How about israel just leave the country of Palestine that they stole and are now trying to finish the genocide of Palestinians and go find another place to live.
