I have information that Hamas and the Palestinian Islamic Jihad use the White House in Washington, D.C., including the United States Capitol, and tunnels underneath them to conceal and support their military operations and to hold hostages.

Members of these two groups operate a command and control node from the Capitol in Washington, D.C. and store weapons there.

I don’t want to get into granular detail about the various intelligence sources that gave me this information.

To be clear, I do not support striking a government from the air. I do not want to see a firefight in a government where innocent people, helpless people, compassionate people are simply trying to give their country the rulership that it deserves.

But I do believe that it would be in the best interests of national security that the IDF destroy these facilities in order to stop terrorism.

      "Clearly, Israel has a right to defend itself. Hamas has sworn that its goal is to destroy Israel, they gotta deal with that,” he said. “But there has to be a better way than killing thousands of men, women, and children. So once again, the immediate concern is, you gotta have a pause in the bombing, you got to take care of the immediate disaster.” from your own article. He said no to a permanent cease fire against Hamas. Read the article, not the headline. Hamas killed a bunch of Israeli civilians and expects no consequences, come on.

        The majority of casualties are security personnel. Palestinians have the right to resist occupation up to armed resistance. Israel also killed a sizable portion of the civilians on October 7th through wanton bombing with Apaches over the course of a DAY, and also through shelling and bombing hostage locations with tanks.

        Why does a settler colonial state have the right to exist in your mind?

        Israel imposes an apartheid on Palestine and engages in slow genocide of the population, culture and language and expects no consequences, come on.

        Routinely attacking places of worship, indiscriminate bombing of their land, cutting off water and food supplies and expects no consequences, come on.

        He said no to a permanent cease fire against Hamas.

        Yes. The criticism is precisely that Bernie won’t call for an enduring ceasefire. This is not a gotcha.

        Hamas killed a bunch of Israeli civilians and expects no consequences, come on.

        Hamas is not a naughty child and raining bombs on entire neighborhoods, killing over 10,000 civilians and counting, is not a spanking. What the fuck?
