Israel’s War vs Islamic Wild Beast Terrorists in a Minute

Israel’s War vs Islamic Wild Beast Terrorists in a Minute

by Moshe Burt

Negotiations leading to partial return of some, or for that matter all, of the hostages in exchange for hundreds of terrorists = Surrender and Appeasement. Israel’s victory is ONLY defined as eradication of Hamas and All other Gazan Terror groups as well as IDF (Israel Defense Forces) Liberation of All hostages, as they did at Entebbe on July 4, 1976.

And accusations of Israel “murdering” “innocent” Gaza civilians: It is a time of war which Israel did not start, nor did Israel instigate. Israel could in no way even conceive of the barbaric atrocities of Hamas. Nor would they intentionally seize, murder, rape and behead an adversary’s civilians, as Hamas did to Jewish civilians. read more
