#9  Both the US Ambassador to Israel and US State Dept HQ came out with Israel supportive statements today. Both essentially condemned the Hamas attacks and regretted loss of civilian life.

So, at least so far, no throwing Israel under the bus.

#8  It is true that Ahmed Jabari carried out some anti Al Q and anti Islamic J ops as part of his overall duties. However, he has led, planned or directed hundreds of attacks on Israeli civilians.

The next phase will be interesting. Israel has the location of dozens of Hamas ammo storage sites that are in residential or even hospital locations.
