File under: Hamas

#1 Kinda funny how they omit the fact that Hamas broke the ceasefire with mortar and rocket fire, and an attempted kidnapping of an Israeli soldier.

Its pretty simple: If the Pelostinians in Gaza don't want the Israelis there, then they need to get rid of the reason they are there: Hamas. Stop supporting Hamas.

#2 Actually, it's 10 not 62.

#3 Sorry, ten just doesn't fit the narrative.

#4 62 was the number of Israeli soldiers lost. I think the journalist was getting his/her stats mixed up.

#5 That's still about 18 to one. In a war that's a dandy exchange rate.

And the ratio could actually be better than that. Of course the Israelis are trained and the Gazoo are just expendable. But still.

And for the most part the Gazoo don't accomplish much by just shooting in the air a lot. But then, they ARE Moslems.
