Firing on civilian aircraft is an act of war. Should they be stupid and down an international aircraft, meaning American, over Israel, then the response shouldn’t be a ground assault. It should be a carpet bombing that would make shock and awe look like firecrackers on July 4th.

Hamas got a gift from the FAA last time. They’re looking for another one.

Obama would like Israel to look like Ferguson.

I don’t know how any Rosh Yisheeva in his right mind can tell bocherim or girls to come study in Israel at this time. If they do it is only because “kee hashoichad y’aver aanay chachomim v’yisalef divrey tzadikim.. If boys/girls for the U.S. or Europe etc. don’t come to their yisheevas then they would be very empty (and no tuition being paid hence the nigeeis) It is criminal to tell them “come it’s safe here in the Yisheeva, nothing will happen”. Which parent wants to send their kid to a war/terrorist zone? Not me. Let them learn in Lakewood or Mosey or Boro Park etc. There are great yisheevas here in the U.S..

Hamas reminds me of the school yard bullies, who attempt to intimidate vulnerable students with threats. I am not afraid of those momzarim. In fact, I just booked a flight to Eretz Yisrael, and will be landing at Ben Gurion Airport.

santa, go back to the xtians you represent. Jews in the US and in Israel show courage, and don’t hide in the shtetl from threats. We said “Never Again”, well Again is now, so show some guts, don’t run and hide.
