Why are the lives of these sweet boys being sacrificed to preserve the lives of terrorist Palestinians? There should be no place for snipers to hide among human shields!
The place should be razed to the ground and not one IDF soldier should come to harm.
Kowtowing to Biden’s electoral dreams is costing precious lives!
ALL of this because BIBI listens to Biden and refuses to bomb Gaza and makes soldiers go into houses 1 on 1, and they still call him a war criminal. Bibi we will not forget.
The low lives in the IDF are sacrificing innocent soldiers for political purposes. What a disgrace!
The generals are leftists. Most in the government are leftists, even those considered “centrist” are leftists. So we end up with an army and government sacrificing the lives of their soldiers to try to appeaseto a world where Jews are hated. The Gazans are using their civilians as human sheilds, but the Israeli army is also using their soldiers as human shields.
BD”E 🙁
Thank Bibi, Gallant, Gantz, et al cabal for needlessly sacrificing the most courageous precious neshamos just satisfy Briben’s leftwing nuts.
