But tell use again how you're so against Israeli West Bank settlements. I need a laugh
Here's what officials consider a terrorist in the WB:
Hamas must be eliminated as a governing and militant entity in Gaza. This means removing the terrorists from Rafah.
All Rafah terrorists must be purged
The only path to victory for Israel in this fight hinges on uprooting Hamas from Rafah.

This is also a reminder that Hamas and the Muslim Brotherhood are a global threat which wants to kill Jews and Christians while eliminating all western countries across the face of the earth.
Defeating Hamas requires a joint effort from the Western world
Contending with Hamas is not just a one-dimensional struggle of Israel alone. It should be a combined effort of the Western World.

who could've seen this coming?:
Israel's military will "struggle to neutralize" Hamas's sprawling underground tunnel systems and is likely to face "lingering armed resistance" from the militant group "for years to come," according to a new global threat assessment compiled by the U.S. intelligence community.
The risk of escalation of the conflict in Gaza, now stretching into its sixth month, also "remains high," according to the unclassified report, which was released Monday by the Office of the Director of National Intelligence (ODNI). The analysts who drafted it, however, said neither Iran nor its proxy groups are believed to be seeking direct conflict with the United States.
In accompanying public testimony before the Senate Intelligence Committee on Monday, Director of National Intelligence Avril Haines said the war in Gaza had fueled violent acts by terror groups worldwide.
The crisis "has galvanized violence by a range of actors around the world and, while it is too early to tell, it is likely that the Gaza conflict will have a generational impact on terrorism," Haines said. "Both al Qaeda and ISIS, inspired by Hamas, have directed supporters to conduct attacks against Israeli and U.S. interests," she said.
Haines appeared alongside the heads of five major American intelligence agencies for an annual hearing on worldwide threats. CIA director William Burns, FBI director Christopher Wray, Brett Holmgren, head of the State Department's Bureau of Intelligence and Research, National Security Agency director Gen. Timothy Haugh and Lt. Gen. Jeffrey Kruse of the Pentagon's Defense Intelligence Agency also testified.
The ODNI assessment, which represents the collective analysis of the 18 intelligence agencies comprising the U.S. intelligence community, also said the "viability" of Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu's leadership and governing coalition "may be in jeopardy."
"Distrust of Netanyahu's ability to rule has deepened and broadened across the public from its already high levels before the war, and we expect large protests demanding his resignation and new elections," it says. "A different, more moderate government is a possibility."
President Biden said in a recent interview with MSNBC that he believed Netanyahu was "hurting Israel more than helping Israel" by waging a military campaign that to date has resulted in the deaths of more than 30,000 civilians in Gaza, according to the Gaza Ministry of Health. In a separate interview with Politico, Netanyahu later called Mr. Biden's critical views "wrong," and said fighting could end within four to six weeks.
Burns, who returned Saturday from his eighth trip overseas to hold talks with Qatari, Egyptian and Israeli negotiators, testified Monday that a cease-fire was the most effective way to boost the delivery of humanitarian aid into Gaza, where the health ministry has said at least 25 people have already died due to malnutrition.
A former diplomat who has been tapped by Mr. Biden to lead successive rounds of sensitive hostage talks, Burns said a potential three-part agreement — involving the release of hostages in return for a defined number of Palestinian prisoners and an initial six-week cease-fire — remained "on the table."
"I don't think anybody can guarantee success," he said. "What I think you can guarantee is that the alternatives are worse for innocent civilians in Gaza who are suffering under desperate conditions, for the hostages and their families who are suffering, also under very desperate conditions, and for all of us."
While the 40-page, written intelligence assessment said Iran's leaders "did not orchestrate nor had foreknowledge" of Hamas's October 7 attack against Israel — in which more than 1,200 Israelis were killed and more than 250 were taken hostage — it noted Tehran was able to "flex" its proxy network's military capabilities in the attacks' aftermath, and would likely remain a threat.
"While Iran will remain careful to avoid a direct conflict with either Israel or the United States, it nonetheless enabled scores of militia rocket, missile, and UAV attacks against U.S. forces in Iraq and Syria; Hizballah exchanges of fire with Israel on the north border with Lebanon; and [Houthi] missile and UAV attacks, both on Israel directly and on international commercial shipping transiting the Red Sea," analysts wrote.
Hamas is a cult and its attack plan is inhumane beyond words
Top-secret Hamas abduction manuals were recovered from members' bodies on October 7. Listed in them were tactics to create chaos, intimidate captives, apply electric shocks, and carry out executions.
https://www.jpost.com/israel-hamas-war/article-792781
Hamas is, as are most organizations formulated to eradicate Israel and Jews, a radical “religious” cult. The Hamas Charter serves as its “bible” and is supplemented by numerous documents reflecting rules and regulations that Hamas adherents and Iranian funders follow.
Evidence for this is found in the fact that October was deviant, asymmetrical warfare fueled by cult-driven, misguided “religious” fervor. Allowing live bombs to be assembled and stored under toddlers’ beds in Gaza is but one example of this “religious” depravity. There are many others.
Top-secret Hamas abduction manuals were recovered from the bodies of Hamas members on October 7. Listed in them were tactics to create chaos, intimidate captives, apply electric shocks, and carry out executions and rapes. They contained detailed priority instructions on how to take civilians hostage, bind them by their wrists and ankles, and collect their identification papers. They also included instructions on how to livestream kidnappings.
These were supplemented with information on how to conduct other bloody brutalities and “kill the resisting Israelis,” which they did, in great numbers. Israeli President Isaac Herzog said the instructions described “exactly how to kill, torture, how to abduct, how to kidnap...” Plans included detailed instructions on how to sweep schools, synagogues, and youth centers.
The manual lists instructions on operating specific weapons, identifies vulnerabilities in Israeli military equipment, and offers tips on killing with a knife and shows the best places to stab someone, “neck in the collarbone area,” “spine” and “underarms” are highlighted. Their goals were death, destruction, mutilation, and kidnapping.
The abduction manual documents gave both broad guidance, such as which stimulants to take, along with specific village attack information for the invaders. The attackers were to “use them as human shields,” and use “electric shocks” to force compliance.
The hostage-taking manual and Hamas’s own footage gave a fuller picture of the terror group’s plan to take multiple hostages and kill captives who fought back to any degree. The document instructs the attackers to drastically ration food to hostages – leading to long-term starvation – and proves that Hamas was planning to keep hostages in very tight cages for a long period of time. The terrorists hoped to spark a wider insurrection, and just like in extreme cults, they were instructed to fight until the death.
The situation portion of the plan gave exact numbers of which “enemy” forces to expect, the technologies that they had to overcome, and the strength of the Israeli forces.
Hamas has been observing IDF response tactics for a long time before October 7
Hamas had been watching the IDF, timing its Quick Reaction Force (“Three tanks would take three minutes”). This is arguably the most comprehensive top-secret battle attack document ever written for any group. It included tactical command details as well as supervisory command, and was broken down into mission commanders, breach teams, duty teams, mission artillery teams, crossing officers (to direct traffic at the breach points), and monitors. They knew where every speed camera was located and whether those cameras had secondary purposes, along with the location of ground surveillance radar.
The manual is so thorough that it has many strategic scenarios. For example, unit duties: “In case the group succeeds in occupying the kibbutz, the group will approach from street X, then street Y, then the larger intersection where the main gate of the kibbutz is located. This breach crew will then stay at the intersection and secure the intersection and the main kibbutz gate. The first group will open a gap in the fence and attack the kibbutz from the Southwest. The bulk of the platoon will then attack the kibbutz from the main gate, and kill off the regional forces and any other forces, and take control of the area.”
Hamas manuals also gave instructions for GoPro cameras. At least a half-dozen of the terrorists who breached the Gaza border and attacked the Israeli communities had cameras strapped to their bodies, to create more horror for the Israelis. Terrorists today routinely use footage from their attacks for propaganda reasons, and social media has accelerated the trend. The right-wing extremist who killed 51 people at two mosques in Christchurch, New Zealand in 2019 livestreamed footage of the attack from a helmet-mounted camera. The Islamic State continues its social media operation that releases videos of beheadings and other atrocities.
The kidnapping plans contained a list of almost 50 steps to be followed, divided into categories: collection, confinement and control, safety, supply (near starvation), communications, publicity (live broadcasting), negotiations, and unforeseen situations.
The abduction manuals were organized into sections. The goal was to prepare Hamas fighters to kill, maim, and hold hostages inside Gaza and even inside Israel, for long durations. The first section is titled “Gathering” and includes instructions on how to take hostages, dead or alive. Section two, “Isolation and control,” instructs attackers how to control the hostages, kill anyone attempting to assist, and prevent captives from escaping. The manual is clear: “Kill all who pose a threat, distract, or disturb.”
Other tactics included creating “chaos” explosives, and drugging and isolating the hostages. Following instructions, Hamas attackers live-streamed the abduction of hostages while holding the Israeli identifying information up to the GoPro camera. Attackers lured civilians out of their protected homes.
No reasonable army operates this way. Only a radical “religiously” motivated group, outside the norm, and therefore a cult, can justify this type of detailed, gruesome attack plan. The only reasonable response is to eliminate the leadership to the degree possible and reprogram the population away from cult thinking.

It is time to finish the job of eliminating Hamas as a governing and militant entity in Gaza.
Hamas is disintegrating from within, Gazan terrorists tell Israel - Gallant
Yoav Gallant: Hamas terrorists can no longer take the toll of Israel's war in Gaza; terror group is 'disintegrating from within.'

Imagine a handful of maga folks pulled this at a mosque lol. Omg! It would be front page news and dominate the MSM airwaves for a week minimum. Not to mention they'd be charged with felony hate crimes, and locked up without bail.

Three pro-Palestinian protesters were arrested after disrupting the Saturday evening Easter Vigil Mass at St. Patrick’s Cathedral in New York City as the faithful were celebrating the resurrection of Jesus Christ.
Protesters entered the cathedral about 45 minutes into the 8 p.m. Vigil Mass, which was celebrated by Cardinal Timothy Dolan, and stood in front of the altar with a large flag that read “silence = death.” Security quickly tried to wrestle the flag from the protesters and eventually forced them away from the altar and toward the exit of the church before police came to arrest them.
As the protesters were being forced out of the cathedral, more protesters who were standing in the pews shouted “free, free Palestine.” Security also forced those protesters out of the church.
