"Rarely does a president (just say Biden or Obama) confront so much peril." Wrong. Rarely does a president CREATE so much peril! I have never felt so threatened by wars, the economy, the border, sexual perversity, abuse of children. What or who will stop this evil? God help us.

When I read that quote my reaction was "Oh boo hoo. Poor little Barry and Joe". Decisions have consequences. Sometimes those consequences accumulate and result in what we are seeing: The public horrified by their pure evil.

The peril is self induced. He is weak, and stupid. Or more accurately weak and corrupt, which provides him the opportunity to act stupidly. None of this would be happening if Trump were in office; whether by luck or plan, or perhaps a bit of both, Trump's foreign policy worked. It would be that which I would most look forward to were he re-elected.

The weakness and incompetence we see in the Biden administration on all fronts reminds of a great Ronald Reagan quote. "Of the four wars in my lifetime, none came about because the U.S. was too strong."

I think it was Rabin, former premiere of Israel, who famously said that the trouble with the Palestinians is that they can't take "Yes" for an answer. He meant that the Israelis are willing to live in a two-state solution but the Palestinians only want a one state one, with the Jews and Christians dead or driven out of the Levant. I don't see how one can square that circle without bloodshed.

The left's convoluted beliefs and actions are finally coming home to roost. As many of the moderates - and even some on the left - are repulsed by this butchery, perhaps Trump will add significantly to his 75 millions supporters from 2020. Let's go for 100 million.

Well put, things are "finally coming home to roost" for the Left.

If Trump got 75-80 million votes in 2020, I would suspect that after 3 years of people getting red-pilled by Joe Biden's astoundingly bad reign that Trump is already at 100 million, or even 110 million, or ??? more ???

"we" (as in Americans) don't end this war. it's not our war in the first place. the cowards who carried out the attack on October 7 will go into hiding in hopes of again someday striking behind their human shields as they've been doing since 1948. it will be a long and arduous task for the Israeli forces to hunt them down. perhaps America can contribute to the cause by sending the useful idiots that support Hamas to hang out with their heroes. they never shut up about their idiocy, so they'll make the hunt a bit less difficult.

I believe Don might be giving the Associated Press too much credit for coming around with fair, honest reporting on matters with Israel. For the past several days my local newspaper has published a front page picture showing destruction and mayhem in Gaza due to Israeli retaliation. I recall little or no pictures covering the attack Israel suffered. This is a relentless attempt to garner sympathy for the terrorists. FYI, I do not subscribe to this rag but glance at the online version. I don't willingly support people who support terrorism and the AP does as much as the BBC.

I think you are far too generous. One (or set of ) “stunned and amazed” headline(s) does not a trend make nor demonstrate a change in world view. The people and organizations have not changed their views, nor will they change their actions until forced to, repeatedly and unambiguously. That’s not until the so-called secular Jews become faithful Jews and are willing to defend themselves. Taylor of Swift does not care about 1 bodyguard. He is however safe in his soul. Others will just keep their mouths shut until they think it’s safe to reject civilization again. The teenagers at Harvard etc think it will all just blow over and the jobs they counted on will still be there. As they probably will be, since the institutions and firms share their beliefs and have deeper pockets to wait it out.

Good morning, all.

So, if I understand things proper, at some point in the recent past the area of Gaza had Israeli settlements. The Israelis in these settlements were then told to leave, by their own government, and to leave the equipment like greenhouses and such behind, to be used by the 'new' residents, the 'Palestinians'. Some Israelis had to be removed by force, as I recall, claiming that their .gov was stealing their land. The new residents then proceeded to dismantle or simply destroy this equipment instead of using it to improve their situation, and then holler about how oppressed/victimized they were.

I have Native American ancestry as well as European, so it behooves me to speak to one of the previous comments regarding on the shameful way some of my ancestors were treated.

My mother's family comes from the Southeast - Missouri, mainly, and some tribal blood from there is part of my heritage; I'm pretty sure the bloodlines from there weren't mixed together in anger! Some of them managed to live through the Trail of Tears ordeal, and chose to farm land of their own rather than live on a reservation, and I never heard any of them complain about it, or about how they had to move to California during the Depression. They exercised choice. If they had chosen to continue to fight the settlers, I am fairly sure that this version of me wouldn't exist.

Now let's look at Gaza.

At some point, there were Israeli settlements there, built by the people living in them. As part of at least one of the many attempts to unite with or at least pacify the Palestinians there, the Israeli government removed the people - Israelis - living there, and turned over the settlements, including greenhouses and farmlands to the Palestinian folks. These grateful people then promptly dismantled/destroyed the majority of the equipment and farmland left behind for them to use to better themselves. Why?? Because it had been put together and used by Jews...

Seems to me, that if you are given chance after chance to better yourselves, and all you continue to do is call down jihad on people who have held out an olive branch far more than I would have done, your fate is being determined by you and you alone.

If the people who lived here in America had chosen to fight to the last against the new settlers, they would have been exterminated. Instead, they adapted, survived, and in some cases have thrived.

Need evidence? I offer you this: all over the U.S. there are tribal casinos...

Think of the opportunities the Palestinian people have not merely missed, but actively smashed, and spare me the equivocation between them and some of my ancestors. THEY knew when it was time to stop counting scalps.

This may sound overly snarky, but the Palestinians for the most part have become the Welfare Queens of the Middle East. They depend on Israel for food, water, and electricity and the billions of dollars in foreign aid from nations around the world, primarily the U.S. Given that they elect terrorists like Hamas to govern them, it is all too evident that they do not deserve their own nation. The same goes for the Palestinian Authority in the West Bank territory.
