What exactly are the military goals of Israel? When Hamas first attacked them, most of the world supported Israel's counterattack.

However, people did not support Israel acting like Hamas and bombing civilian targets, etc. Also, never-ending wars.


America may soon ditch them, leaving Israel with no allies. The Arab world could unite and crush Israel. It only has 12 million people. Netanyahu could be trying to expand and grow the size of Israel; it is not clear. What type of future is this leaving the next generations?


It seems American politicians are bribed by Israeli lobby groups, as the amount of support that America has given them has been above and beyond the call of duty.


If the Israeli's lose Israel to the Arab world (again), then is it even worthwhile putting them back there again in the future.

Jews have been seen as a protected species because of what happened under Hitler's WW2. However, that respectful protection has been worn thin as the world tires with their continuous war-mongering.

How many gay people did they behead or toss off buildings?...I don't like what they're doing and believe they should be stopped, but they're not even close to the Taliban or Iran for that matter.

That is true. Also, Israel only has problems with the Arab world, where as the Arabs fight with everyone.


However, Israel is in the Middle East, so their current actions could be very negative for future Israeli

Will their even be an Israel.

They had to take revenge for the Hamas attack, but their has to be a line in the sand. Otherwise, it is hard to separate the good and bad from the same.


Also, what do they really hope to achieve by getting into a war with so many Arab countries, and at the same time. No stated military goal.

Shark ...IDK WTH is going on in the world, but Israeli leadership under BiBi is a problem and America is too involved... Trump's idea of getting the rest of the countries involved with the Abraham Accords is the way forward...the Muslim countries of the region should sort out Hamas and Hizbola...to Israel's satisfaction...the IDF should operate in Israeli territory only...excluding the West Bank and Palestine...the Arab countries should get some sort of peacekeeping force going to take care of radicals in the Arab countries...coordinated by some ad hoc peace council similar to Trump's Peace Council idea, but the soldiers on the ground should be Arab...the US can help with the funding of that ...the UN is useless...rife with corruption and hidden agendas...when last did they resolve any kind of conflict?
