By Tommy Acosta —
“Revenge is a dish best served cold.” – Ricardo Montalban as Kahn in the Wrath of Kahn, Star Treck 2.
Sedona, AZ — And no colder dish of revenge can be served than the Israeli retaliation on Hamas and Palestine for the October 7th sneak attack on Israel.
With the moral compass firmly on its side, Israel, because of that incredible act of stupidity and cruelty by Hamas, got the go ahead to devastate an entire nation in response to the killing of 1,200 plus Jews and the taking of more than 250 hostages.
Setting a goal and clarion call for the annihilation of Hamas, the process continues with the precision of a master diamond cutter crafting a masterpiece.
The Israeli game plan appears to be quite simple:
- Turn the enclave into rubble.
- Force the population into one corner of southern Gaza.
- Bomb the living shit out of them no matter where they are told to hide.
- Deny them food, water, shelter, sanitation, medicine, electricity and internet access.
- Force them to migrate to neighboring Arab countries or die.
- Flush the tunnels.
- Move in when they are gone.
The IDF invasion began in the North, with the demolition of buildings, schools, entire neighborhoods, refugee camps, stores, homes, anything and everything that once stood higher than three feet above ground.
The bombing was relentless, and the displaced population was forced to migrate south.
Once the buildings in North Gaza were leveled the tanks and troops were sent in to mop up whatever was left. With no buildings or structures to hide in, the Hamas forces were basically denied the cover they needed to fight house-to-house. Whatever resistance existed above ground hiding in the debris was simply eliminated with rockets, tank shells and drones.
Moving south, the bombings destroyed anything still standing, forcing Palestinian refugees to flee further into more concentrated areas, denying the Hamas forces anywhere to hide from the IDF attack.
The present focus is in middle Gaza where the IDF is following the same strategy it did when clearing the north.
Once they flatten the middle of Gaza they will finish the job in the south in the same fashion.
No buildings, homes or structures will be left standing in their quest to weed out every last Hamas fighter. When the job is done, the population of the enclave will be country-less, homeless, jobless, and hopeless. Palestine will be no more.
Then and only then will Hamas cease to exist. Israel will finally achieve, after all these centuries, its goal of eliminating its mortal enemy, forever.
Now, that’s cold…

You neglected to mention 100s of miles of underground tunnels where hostages are being kept, and HAMAS is using for command and control and launching attacks using RPGs and IEDs. Or the fact the rocket launchers are buried next to hospitals and schools, and the population is used as a human shield.
Not to mention that HAMAS along with IRAN, the head of the snake that our idiot in the White House ignores since he has all of Obama’s people running things, and it shows.
It is the repeated stated goal of HAMAS to eliminate the state of Israel, as is the repeated stated goal of IRAN. When a state says they want you eliminated, you need to take them at their word. Iran authorized the HAMAS attack before Israel could do a deal with the Saudis, which was imminent. They would have none of that. Without Iran, there is no Hamas, albeit for the money that we gave the Palestinians that never made it to the people – another US policy screw up. We helped fund the monsters that attacked Israel on October 7th.
IRAN through its proxies have attacked US bases and facilities in the region over 130 times, and now we have as US soldier in critical condition and others injured. And Biden plays the weak sister.
These people learn ZERO from history. Neville Chamberlain thought he could negotiate with Hitler. How’d that work out. Unless you smack HARD the Iranian proxies, including the Houthis, and send a military message to Iran, this isn’t going to end.
You either cut the head of the snake off or you get bit, in this case the snake is more like Medusa, with multiple heads.
I agree. The author fails to mention the tunnels but what good is it when the rats emerge from them if there is no country left for them to fight for? Hamas is fighting tanks and F-16s, drones and an extremely well-equipped army, with rifles, outdated ordinance and prehistoric missiles. Now, going after Iran is a different story. They got all kinds of modern weaponry, A real army, jets and probably hypersonic cruise missiles compliments of Russia. Getting into an above-board war with them is no piece of cake and I think Biden knows this.
Let’s face it. They hate us, the Arab nations. They want us dead and they want Israel destroyed. What most of us don’t understand is why. Osama bin Laden articulated that in his letter to the U.S. that was banned from Tic Toc.
https://www.interestinganswers.com/what-is-osama-bin-ladens-letter-to-america-read-the-full-text/
Some might say the letter is a scribble written by a mad man but some might actually get some insight into why they hate us so much if they read it.
Tommy makes a good point though, writing that the only way to defeat Hamas is to basically wipe out Palestine. Hamas don’t wear uniforms or carry flags. They blend in with the civilians and hide amongst them. Basically, they are them.
Israel is faced with the same dilemma French nobleman Simon de Montefort faced in 1209 when ordered by the Pope to kill the Cathars who were hiding behind a Christian population. IDF can’t really tell the difference, so they are left with only one choice if they truly want to eliminate Hamas. To borrow a phrase from Arnaud Amalric, “Kill them all and let God sort them out.”

There are many heads to this snake. One must be certain to not be bit in the ass while cutting one off.
Most of your stuff is bull shit. You’ve clearly drunk the Kool Aid. Your line referring to the idiot in the white house is telling. He has clearly been more successful than the previous guy.
You’re delusional. You my friend have an endless supply of Kool aid in your fridge. Keep chugging it
For someone who is too much of a coward to use your real name – quite a statement.
Idiot in the White House? He was installed, this is Obama’s 3rd term and he has many of the same people and certainly the same policies. It is incredible that the success of the previous “Orange Twitter Guy” cleary is light years away from what we have now. A little reminder:
1. NO Wars
2. Gas Prices hovering around $2
3. Labor participation rate – highest in decades (unlike now)
4. Unemployment record low – with no covid to use as a crutch
5. A border policy that was working – despite every DEMOCRAT effort to divert wall funding.
6. Energy Independence
7. More Asian, Hispanic and Black start up business than anytime in recent history
8. Inflation 2%
9. REAL Wages increasing over inflation
10. Rebuilt the military
11. Created the Space Force
12. Stopped the insane deal with Iran
13. Forced NATO countries to start paying their dues
The list of positive actions, whether you liked his tweets or not was long and could have been longer if not for the obstructionist Democrats that did things like the Russia Hoax – fake impeachments and a whole group lying to the FBI and Congress that for some reason went unpunished. Just diversions that the mainstream media supported.
Since 2020, we are dealing with two wars, and out of control Iran and its surrogates, 13 dead Americans in a horribly botched Afghanistan withdrawal, against the recommendations of his military advisors, leaving the largest air base EVER in the region and $85 billion in arms and equipment for the enemy. The US weakness was on full display.
Biden stopped the pipeline, immediAtely put 40+ thousand out of work, supported dirty oil from Venezuela, purchased oil from Russia, literally BEGGED the Saudi’s to increase production, drastically reduced our strategic oil reserves, punished the US economy and has ushered in more painful regulations than any president in history.
Over 5.4 million illegal aliens are wandering around the country, many with notices to appease in front of an immigration judge as long as 8 YEARS into the future. 302,000 illegals alone in December that we know of plus got aways.
Drugs pouring across the border, Fentanyl alone killing last year over 100,000 Americans. Cartels in firm control. Democrat run cities with out of control crime, and billions spent in green new deal policies that have proven not to work. I guess The Solyndra deal where Obama lost billions of our money didn’t sit well, so were doing the same thing all over again. Government picking winners and losers – never works. But taxpayer money is free. Great way to buy votes.
This list of the US sliding into oblivion is small as compared to what is really going on. We don’t need a politician,. we need a pragmatist. And we had one, and we see what happens when politicians with unlimited dollars can do if given half a chance.
And the scary thing is not the puppet in the oval office who can’t complete a sentence that is not on the teleprompter, it’s the puppeteers that hate this country the way it is and their supporters that are pulling his strings to bring it down.
He stole money from the military to the tune of $130 billion to build his blow down in the wind wall and most of that money was never spent so where is it? I suspect it’s at the Berkhof a Lago along with all of the missing TS/SCI, PRP and higher classification material he stole from the National Archives. I know you never served so you’ve no idea the level of security he violated for reasons yet unknown to most but is ASSumed to be utilized as political leverage. I think he intended to sell them. He’s a businessman after all albeit an incredibly incompetent and crooked one.
He WAS impeached twice and very rightfully so. And he was investigated by and testified against by fellow Republicans (likely the last true Republicans this country will ever see). He just happens to have dirt on all of his GOP puppets that he holds over their heads and has Federal Judges that he installed to get what he wants.
He also whored himself out to get spanked by a known porn actress while his wife was pregnant with his son.
Yep he’s a victim. Poor wittle Don Don! So Christ reincarnated like as the blind led by the blind like to chant.
One day you’ll wake up from your trance just like the Germans did as WWII came crashing down upon them! The masses will not support Tyranny! Never have and never will!
-Jay Bee
So we should have Dresden’d all of Germany during WWII, killed all the South Koreans so we only had North Koreans left to kill, nuked Vietnam, LAOS and Thailand to eliminate the Viet Minh, attacked Iraq because of 9/11 because they have “WMD’s” somewhere, and now we should kill innocent Palestinians to eliminate armed and trained Hamas insurgents?
Problem is those are all high level war crimes and would make anyone complicit in them war criminals who can and should face a war crimes tribunal. Unfortunately the US and Israel have exempted themselves and their troops from being prosecuted at The Hague for crimes against humanity and other war crimes.
Trained professional soldiers can tell the difference between non combatants and those trained in the art of war. Sometimes it is difficult to do but there are verification methods ground troops use today such as facial recognition. It is impossible to do from a missile battery 1,000 miles away or military aircraft 800-10,000 feet in the air while traveling at high speeds as is the prevalent method of “prepping the battlefield” by basically making it In hospitable to life in any form via aerial bombardment so that ground troops face zero or less risk of loss on the ground.
There were chemical WMDs in Iraq, not only used on the Kurds but many American Servicemen lost their lives trying to dispose of them. I won’t comment on all the other points but that one is for sure. The report of NO WMDS in Iraq was a blatant lie.
You’re half correct. There “were” WMD’s in Iraq and yes he used upon Kurdish civilians(which the Orange Draft Dodger gave Erdogan the green light to ethnically clense) back in 88-89 I was there as part of Operation Provide Comfort and witnessed it first hand.
George H Bush (another crooked POTUS)not only provided those weapons to Saddam during the war between Iran-Iraq in which the US armed both sides with devastating lethality in the “hopes it would prevent one side from winning” when in reality the hopes were that they’d obliterate one another and we could waltz in for an oil grab, which was also W. Jr’s administration’s lame assed excuse of WMD’s in Iraq as justification for the US launching a second war against it in retaliation for Saudi and Yemeni terror attacks on 9/11.
Problem was Saddam used the VX and GB agents on the Kurds decades prior and so nothing of any significance WMD wise was ever found. But W. eliminated his Daddies patsy Saddam just as his daddy stifled his drug kingpin friend Noriega. Oh and the Bush family is good friends with the Saudi Royal Family and the Bin Ladin’s.
Orange Juliass Ceaser is friends with the Saudi Royal Family and made billion dollar deals on military sales with them during their molestation of the sacred glowing orb ceremony.
You seem to think I’m a Democrat but you’re 100% incorrect if you do. I think all politicians are criminals in some form or another whether it’s tax evasion, stock manipulation, foreign interests with benefits etc. They don’t do it for the large paychecks they do it for the benefits. I just happen to be clear enough of mind to know that Donawlt Dump or anything similar would be the very worse thing to happen to our Democracy. But some people want a lying, cheating, stealing, misogynistic, racist, privileged draft dodger, Manchurian Candidate to hand our country over to his pals Putin, Un and Xi.
Genocide is a war crime, even if it is committed by Israel.
All in favor of genocide should have their homes destroyed, their business destroyed, their children and spouse killed and be forced penniless into exile.
After all, some US soldier sometime committed a war crime.
Mike,
many US soldiers have committed war crimes from our war of independence to present day. War is a crime in and of itself!
Unfortunately some Presidents like Nixon and Trump think war criminals are heroes and have pardoned them despite their own people turning them in for their war crimes when they should have been locked up for life or worse! Pardoned war criminals show the world that the US talks a big game when it comes to war crimes and war criminals but we are spineless cowards when it comes to justly punishing our own (like the cowards Lt Calley and CPO Gallagher)and that makes us look incredibly hippo critical in the eyes of the world.
Israel’s war is not against Hamas. It is a long-planned war of genocide to eliminate Palestine. With US assistance, it is going according to plan.
Your small world view is showing again, Tommy. For the last 1500 years, the battle cry has been to kill the Jews and fight everyone else until the world is dominated by a single political system (disguised as a religion). Palestinian adherents of this political system were closely associated with Hitler’s hatred before the Jewish state even existed. So, the Israelis have been very tolerant of the violent hatred living adjacent to their border. I challenge anyone (including you, Tommy) who has a neighbor constantly throwing Molotov Cocktails over their fence to sit nonchalantly doing nothing about it. And the evil of Hamas doesn’t exist without the support of the citizens of Palestine (who “voted” Hamas into power) – to eliminate this evil, unfortunately, means to destroy it’s root system (no pun intended for the hundreds of miles of terrorist tunnels). Israel is fighting against real evil. Anyone in denial of this has ignored centuries of history, or cherry-picks their version of it. Of course our hearts ache for every innocent death, and the human toll is frightening, but this evil has demonstrated it’s rampant depravity and must be stopped, for the good of all in the region.
Think the battle cry started when the “jews” suddenly appeared in the region land grabbing and killing to take what the book that they wrote claims is theirs despite according to their own story having vacated it for thousands of years.
Had they done the same with land in the US or anywhere in Europe the response would have been the same! The “neighbors” that were uprooted and relocated would be pissed off!
As for the Grand Mufti being an accomplice to Hitler that is pure bullshit! That’s like stating that the “Jewish” “Capo’s” in the extermination camps were willing accomplices of Hitlers which they most definitely were not! And Hitler was never ever a Socialist by the definition of Socialism despite claiming to be Socialist. True Socialist don’t live high on the hog while their constituents die off. Nope, he was a Fascist Racist Asshole period!
I find it very interesting that people in the US would even entertain having Fascism or fascist ideology here in after fighting it head on in WWII. And yet people (including military veterans who were likely all REMFs) here prefer Putin over Zelinsky and the Orange Moron DICKTator over Democracy.
Just shows to go you that although history repeats itself that nobody learns from it especially when it gets distorted by lies and conspiracy spun as “Alternative Facts”.
JB – you seriously need to review your historical facts, you’re coughing up kool-aid.
Give me a reputable documented source proving what I say is bunk because it’s easy to say such things now let’s see you prove them.
LOL – people only say that when they themselves don’t have any factual basis to stand upon but relish their own subjective opinions – bunk this https://www.hoover.org/research/mufti-and-holocaust ????
LoL to you as well, you got nothin but conspiracies.
The Holocaust and the Mufti’s non relation to Hitler are well documented in history.
Saying the Mufti was a Hitler loving fascist and that Hitler was a Socialist not a Fascist like he very clearly was is white supremacy bullshit and you know it!
Try a non Israeli link on for size-

We don’t have a Democracy, that’s not our form of government. All Democracies fail. Our founding fathers knew that.
We have the closest thing to a Democracy there is at least for now. There’s no such thing as a truly democratic, socialist or even communist society because there’s always greed to ruin it for everyone else.
Did you ever serve, or are you the Typical chicken-hawk ?
Who are you asking Daniel? I served for nearly 15 years on Active Duty during which time I deployed 4 times to 4 different regions and battlefields.
My brother /fellow Vet-I was asking Acosta-I already know Schroeder didn’t..
No worries just checking. Thank you as well brother
I was an Army 13F (P) with a handful of ASI’s and SQI’s. How about yourself?
Going to guess you were medical which is the field I wish I had dove into rather than Field Artillery. I aspired to be an SF Medic but never followed through with it and wish I had.
