I hope both sides get another chance. With Hamas eradicated and following elections in Israel (post war). The people on both sides deserve a chance at peace. One can dream.

Every day the sun rises on a new chance for peace. Never give up hope.

That is actually sort of a big deal. We will see what the response is to this. The Houthis are of course just another pawn of Iran, and unfortunately Iran seems determined to set the region on fire.

The poorest country in the mid east getting into this is insanity. The Houthis will cause the populace to suffer even more.

I think that is a mistake to even be having those discussion. It is justifying the taking of hostages. Hostages released, then talk of cease fire.

Following a series of attacks against U.S. persons in Iraq and Syria, U.S. Central Command (USCENTCOM) forces conducted an air strike against a facility in Syria used by Iran’s Islamic Revolutionary Guard Corps (IRGC) and affiliated groups. We will take all necessary measures to defend our people against those who are responsible for the attacks and will respond at a time and place of our choosing.

Bracha Levinson, 74, was murdered by Hamas terrorists in her home in Kibbutz Nir Oz on October 7.

Her family learned of her murder when the killers posted a video of her killing on her own Facebook page, adding to the grisly psychological torture they inflicted on her family and on the country as a whole. Family members said that the terrorists then burned her house down, and her remains were only formally identified and buried a full month later, on November 6.

Oh this won't be good and the fact the Houthis were so proudly sharing the video of it.. I am sure we will respond. I think everyone in that area should be concerned. The drone that was flying over GAZA was at 25,000 feet consistently. If they can shoot the done down, then what's stopping them from shooting down other aircraft?

"The Deputy Prime Minister of Belgium wants sanctions against Israel. ​

'We can't look away'​

'We cannot look away when children are killed every day in Gaza',
said Petra De Sutter, Deputy Prime Minister of Belgium, who on Wednesday supported the introduction of sanctions against Israel.

The leader of the coalition Greens called on Wednesday for the introduction
of sanctions against Israel,
as well as for the initiation of an investigation into the bombings of hospitals and refugee camps in the Gaza Strip.

'The time has come for sanctions against Israel.
The bombing is inhumane',
De Sutter wrote on Platform X.

'While war crimes are being committed in Gaza, Israel is ignoring the international demand for a ceasefire',
added the Belgian Deputy Prime Minister.

She also called for the 'immediate' suspension of the EU-Israel Association Agreement and proposed that Belgium allocate additional funds to the International Criminal Court to investigate war crimes committed by Israel and Hamas.

Split in the Belgian government

The conflict in Gaza is causing divisions in the government of Prime Minister Alexander De Croo.
While the head of government tries to calm emotions, the Socialists and Greens are calling for Belgium to impose sanctions on Israel.
The Christian Democratic party CD&V also takes a similar position.

De Sutter's remarks come two days after De Croo called Israel's actions in Gaza 'disproportionate', Politco.eu reported."

Journalists with Hamas terrorists: Watchdog questions international media's presence at October 7 massacre scenes​

Reuters, AP, CNN and NYT photojournalists arrived at border alongside Hamas terrorists, documenting murder of Israeli civilians, lynching of soldier and kidnappings to Gaza; HonestReporting questions whether they coordinated with Hamas and whether their employers had foreknowledge of the attack​

…

Eslaiah, a freelance photographer who also works for CNN, crossed into Israel, took photos of a burning Israeli tank, and then captured Palestinian infiltrators entering Kibbutz Kfar Azza.

HonestReporting presented screenshots of Eslaiah’s now-removed X posts in which he documented himself standing in front of the Israeli tank. He did not wear a press vest or a helmet, and the Arabic caption of his tweet read: “Live from inside the Gaza Strip settlements.
…..
Masoud, who also works for The New York Times, was there as well. Ali Mahmud and Hatem Ali captured the abduction of Israelis into Gaza. According to HonestReporting, the credits of the photographers who were at the border were subsequently removed from some of the photos in AP's database.

The report points out that Reuters has published photos from Gazan photojournalists, Mohammed Fayq Abu Mostafa and Yasser Qudih, who also happened to be at the border when dozens of infiltrators rolled into Israel.

They both took pictures of a burning Israeli tank on the Israeli side of the border. Shockingly, Abu Mustafa also took photos of a lynch mob brutalizing the body of an Israeli soldier who was dragged out of the tank.
