I strongly disagree with those who blame Israel for what happened on

October 7th, instead of those who actually DID October 7, Hamas.

No one forced Hamas to attack, torture, kill and rape civilians, that is all on them.

That is parallel to blaming the woman who gets raped for not wear appropriate attire that it is her fault for getting raped

It is BS.

As for the Yom Kipper war while the surrounding enemies were poised to attack, the Nixon administration pushed Israel NOT to make a pre-emptive move against them. It was that delay that was the major problem.

In the 67 war they didn’t wait while troops were massing at their borders for them to attack, they took pre-emptive action, and were successful.

Have a good day.
