“Look, what I would be doing is making sure, one, that Israel has everything that it needs to be able to take whatever actions it needs to take,” he said. “And this is the problem with not having a speaker right now, George, and the actions taken by some members of my party were wholly irresponsible without this going on. They’re now even putting a brighter light on the irresponsibility of not having someone in place. But make sure first they have everything that they need.”

The dastardly terrorist attacks perpetrated against innocent Israeli civilians by Iran-backed terror group Hamas deserve a swift and lethal response.
Israel not only has the right to defend itself against these attacks, it has a duty to respond with overwhelming force.
I stand with Israel. America must stand with Israel.

If Hezbollah thinks they will invade from the North, they better plan on getting hit by the US Navy.
Ford carrier strike group en route now.
US presence on the way has a chance to cool this off rather than heat it up.
Some of these religious neocons are more doomsday cultists than Christians. They exemplify FAFO. "Hey let's F-around in the Middle East and find out if we can start Armageddon."
A vibrant celebration of music and culture turned into a nightmarish scene of violence and chaos as a terrorist attack unfolded at the Universo Paralello Israel warmup party organized by Tribe of Nova near Kibbutz Re’im.
The festival, meant to unite people through music, was besieged by armed militia, resulting in a tragic loss of life and a wave of injuries.
Global Community in Shock as Festivals Face Unprecedented Crisis
Performers from around the world, including Aladin (France), Noface, Jumpstreet (Switzerland), Swarup (Brazil), Spectra Sonics (Japan), Astral Projection, Liba, Man With No Name (UK), Rocky Tilbor, Protonica (Germany), and Radikal Moodz (France), were part of the lineup at the festival, now overshadowed by an unprecedented act of violence.

Eyewitness Account Adds Harrowing Details to the Story
New live information from an attendee at the Universo Paralello warmup party paints a harrowing picture of the unfolding tragedy.
The eyewitness stated, “I was there when it started. They stopped the music, and we thought those were fireworks, but those were Iron Dome interceptions, and they became extremely frequent. It happened at around 7 AM, which means the majority of the party-goers were partying to meet the sunrise. Lots of young party-goers were kidnapped. My friend was driving, and we hadn’t started partying yet, so we were more or less okay and just got the heck out of there about 5-10 minutes before small arms fire started.”
Another attendee shared a similar story, “many fell and were injured from the terrorist fire. The terrorists surrounded us. Somehow, we managed to escape the line of fire. They shot at us three times during the escape. There was a cell of four terrorists, then a cell of six.”
Human Toll Rises: Missing Persons and a Rising Death Toll
Amid the tragedy, many individuals from the Universo Paralello festival are still missing, adding to the distress of families and friends. A list of confirmed found attendees has been put together.
A 30-year-old female tourist from Germany, who was visiting for Nova Festival Israel, has been identified by her family as one of the victims through a video.
Hostages taken to Gaza
In another disturbing video, Noa Argamani (25) and her boyfriend, Avi Nathan—who were present at the festival—are captured being escorted across the border into Gaza through a breached fence. In the distressing scene, Argamani vocalizes her fear with chilling cries of ‘don’t kill me!’

Hamas’ terrorist attack on Israel today is an assault on Western Civilization.
The truth is though, Joe Biden funded these attacks on Israel.
America's weakness is blood in the water for bad actors, but this is worse than that. We didn’t just invite this aggression, we paid for it. Iran is the biggest funder of Hamas. This is the Biden $6 billion ransom payment at work.
Israel must defend its people and the nation, and the United States must do everything we can to assist our ally Israel.
As Psalm 122:6 encourages us, we must pray for the peace of Jerusalem.

Sen. Tim Scott, R-S.C., said Saturday that the U.S. must stand "shoulder-to-shoulder" with Israel after the ally was rocked by a devastating terrorist attack from Hamas, while also criticizing what he says is "weakness" by the Biden administration.
Scott, who is running for the Republican presidential nomination, said in an interview with Fox News Digital that the U.S. must condemn the attack, pray for peace in the Middle East and tell Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu that the U.S. stands "shoulder to shoulder and back to back" with Israel.
"There’s no daylight between the two nations. We should ask him what he needs and be prepared to deliver."
...
He also said he listed the things he would do as president to encourage and support Israel in their fight against terrorism.
"One thing I would do is encourage Israel to stand up, to never back down, to never sit down, and to know that we are with them and I would mobilize the Sixth Fleet. Make sure that they were prepared to provide assistance to the nation of Israel. The next thing I would do is make sure that the IDF would have our full support and we would back them and be ready and willing to provide resources and weaponry in this war, as Netanyahu has called it."
...
He said the U.S. should not limit the scope of the Israeli response in terms of going after those who perpetrated the attack.
"They have the power of the United States standing behind them so as they move forward, they should know they have the wind beneath their wings because we will be with them. This is an absolute responsibility and a necessity that Israel responds and it responds aggressively, and we should not put any limits on their reaction," he said.

"To Fight Terrorism"Scott says US must stand ‘shoulder-to-shoulder’ with Israel after Hamas terror attack: ‘Never back down’
Scott accused the Biden administration of projecting 'weakness'

Forget the history. Look at the present. Israel is currently holding 2 million people prisoner in a concentration camp. They can't leave and have limited access to supplies.
An attack by Hezbollah, and other Iranian proxies, would be devastating to Israeli defense systems.
If such an attack occurs,Israel and US should go after the Iranian Oil Refineries and oil infrastructures which is the lifeblood of the Iranian economy.
I agree Kidnapping children should be a crime where was Ramaswamy when Israel was arresting Palestinian children before the conflict in Gaza?Kidnapping Children is a war crime..
Apparently Nikki believes a country that's located 6800 miles away is somehow part of the US.I am sorry how was this on attack on the US?
