True allies have respect for one another. One does not manipulate the other for personal gain, or kick an ally when it’s down. No other country on the face of the earth would tolerate what Israel has put up with from its globalist “friends,” who know full well that Israel faces an existential threat, yet constantly call for a “ceasefire” (in tandem with Israel’s enemies) or for Israel to stand down altogether.
Israel has endured its “friends” demanding that it do nothing in the face of brutal assaults from Hamas and Iran. Netanyahu has shown incredible grace and resilience in the face of the enemy onslaught, and interference from Biden and other globalists—such as Canada’s Foreign Minister Mélanie Joly — just as these globalists grossly mismanage their own countries.
In a Wednesday, April 17 speech to his government (courtesy of the Israel Government Press Office), Netanyahu thanked his traditional allies, but delivers a polite reminder that Israel is a sovereign nation and will do what it needs to do in order to protect its citizens:
I have just come from meeting with the British and German foreign ministers. Last night, I spoke with British Prime Minister Rishi Sunak, and soon I will speak with additional leaders.
I thank our friends for their support in defense of Israel and I say this – support in both words and deeds. They also have all kinds of suggestions and advice, which I appreciate; however, I would also like to clarify – we will make our decisions ourselves. The State of Israel will do whatever is necessary to defend itself.
Today, the Government will approve the Tekuma Plan to rebuild the communities in the Western Negev. We will invest the very large sum of NIS 19 billion in order to move the communities of the Western Negev forward for generations. We will invest in housing, infrastructure, education, employment, health and more.
The Hamas terrorists sought to uproot us. We will uproot them and deepen our roots. We will build the Land of Israel and safeguard our state.

Attempted murder is punishable. Attempted mass murder is also punishable.
Many in the military have been punished for “following orders,” which resulted in the deaths of others. Many have been punished for “mistakes/errors” which resulted in the deaths of others.
If a hitman attempts to murder, fails but escapes capture, he will try again. He should be punished even if he failed to do as he attempted.
mozlums who cause the death, or attempt to cause the death of millions, should be punished.
Telling Israel not to punish the attempt of mass murder….is what biden and his gang, canada, UK, and others are doing.
And each government would do the opposite of what they are telling Israel to do.

If only America had a leader with the caliber Netanyahu instead of a traitor. Biden and his bunch of thugs are more like the old Italian Mafia in Chicago and New York City where their soldiers would enforce their rules rather than the law. Since Trump did not play by the rules that the deep state had established, he had to be taken down and this lawfare attack on him and his close allies and lawyers illustrate their Mafia type attacks and these same thugs are attempting to impose these same rules upon the State of Israel.
I would like to ask this traitor and his mafia like friends at State and elsewhere, since when does a nation have to accept being attacked and its citizens literally butchered by its mortal enemy? If the one of the Mexican cartels with weapons attacked say one of the small towns along the border and butchered the citizens in the manner that Hamas perpetrated against innocent people in Israel, I would like to think that there would be little left of the area under the cartel’s control.

Ray,
To your point, Biden is a somewhat demented criminal psychopath. No conscience.
Somehow, he reminds me of “Whitey” Bulger, the American organized crime boss who led the Winter Hill Gang of Somerville, Massachusetts.

Israel needs to do what is right for Israel and its people. Hamas/Palestine attacked Israel, they now will have to deal with their decision to kill, rape and mutilate Israeli citizens. There is NO QUESTION that Hamas/Palestine wants to destroy Israel and murder all Jewish people. That being their goal, Israel should destroy Hamas leadership and its followers. Its down to one or the other, there is no negotiated/diplomatic end to this Islamic hatred of the Jewish people.
Ray Jarman says
Spot on Old Guy. I also think that Israel should hold its own war crimes trial and hang the leaders as well as those who committed crimes against humanity but I am only daydreaming.
