  1. Money laundering?
    People are living in the streets in the USA with zero help and we are sending money to support a war ?
    Employees don’t make enough money to to pay rent but let’s use our tax payers money to send to another’s country.
    What’s the interest of USA with Israel ? $$$$$$? Petroleum???? What’s the outcome from all this?
    Who cares about humanity???
    Who is the danger to humans. ?

  2. Hamas got setup for failure by those that funded them to have weapons and start a war not thinking all this through with no missile defense system. Which makes me believe that all this was planned to draw in the USA. Suicidal if you ask me, all of it

  3. No evidence but will continue to make up rumors to justify U.S Military presence in "Midddle East". More propaganda agnist another Islamic nation: Iraq, Palestine now Iran. But U.S media will bend over from Israel. 🙄 Any thing to distract the public from Israel's war crimes.

  4. It seems that the Israelis are not aware that they are the invaders. For years Israel has been taking over territories that do not belong to them and yet, what do they expect? to be thanked for the favor? All the harm they do to each other will only fuel more war and more terrorism.

  5. Israel is a State of US and USA always oppresses on Middle east people and control those areas . USA bombed on Hospital in GaZA that is being clear. This war if US is involved more will be worse that those of 19191 .

  6. Why US president always sniff around in other matter to make it own? Why they send US military to any country to be killed? Or only want oil oil oil. Want to make war agenda personal and attack middle east to get oil
