You can only be sympathetic if you do not attribute any agency to your pets.

Ten days ago, they published a long article on Hamas’s strategy to conquer and occupy Israel. Hamas’s plans included the execution of Israelis at a grand scale, the enslavement of those who could provide useful technical skills, and the expulsion of innocents like children. Despite this, the article is very sympathetic to Gazans. Such is the Left, even in Israel.

For anyone interested in learning of Hamas’s strategy, I strongly recommend the article. It’s behind a paywall, so you’ll need to use one of the sites that lets you look behind a subscription barrier. Those who take a strict view of copyright protection will need to restrain themselves.

Here’s a link to the article:

Yep, they are patient, patiently falling further and further behind every other culture.

In some sense this can be seen as a shortcoming of the democratic system.

How’s that working out for them?

So they cheifly serve as explosive pinatas. The cruise missiles and balistic missiles are much more of a threat but again not against a prepared adversary.

Sammy, your Persian pals need a taste of a competent attack. Like their on their embassy only bigger. Start whining.

For decades, Iran’s slogan of the ‘death to America’ only war in the air.

We witnessed the Iranian drone and saw photos that depict the same scenes as those shown by China Doron on social media. Iran did the same but looks no enormous explosions, no smokes and no fires……. just compare that with 1991 Baghdad

But 36 years after the Islamic revolution, “Death to America!” has lost much of its potency inside the country, reduced to a rote phrase of state propaganda which few Iranians take seriously.

Iran’s Ayatollah clarifies that ‘death to America’ slogan refers to policies
