Enough sacrifices made for Biden! This type of warfare is costing too many precious lives. What about the humanitarian cost to Israel? Does that not count – the bereaved families, the widows and orphans? If Oct 7 was like 20 9/11’s, then this soldier casualty price is equivalent to 8000 American soldiers.
