Hamas terrorists on Tuesday night (local time) launched 130 rockets from Gaza over Tel Aviv, Israel’s largest city.
“We are now carrying out our promise,” Hamas’s armed wing said in a statement. “The Qassam Brigades are launching their biggest rocket strike against Tel Aviv and its suburbs, with 130 rockets, in response to the enemy’s targeting of residential towers.”
Air raid sirens were heard in and around the city.

DEVELOPING…
I support Israel however was the two Jewish lives lost wouded by Arab retaliation for a court ordered eviction of long time Palestinian residents from their small homes worth it? Would not an offer of state paid relocation of the evicted been a lot less cheaper and saved more lives on both sides? I am sorry but sometimes I wonder what goes on in the mind on Netanyahu though I have supported his courage and leadership throughout the years.
This is nothing new and typical democrat politics. Hell, obama openly supported hamas and the plo. Nothing like the USA turning their back on an ally! I just called all of my Jewish friends that voted for Biden and laughed. Biden will help the plo wipe Israel off the map.
Agree. IF Israel is “our friend” then WHY did Biden (and Obama) send $$$ to the Palestinians who use the $$ to attack Israel and fund terrorists?!?!?!
@ Richard. Israel is NOT the LIEberal Demoshit’s friend Israel stands in the way of having Islam rule the middle east. As you know Øb☭m☭ bin lyin and Bidet made MILLIONS through kickbacks through arms deals.
Donald Trump exposed how politicians have been laundering our taxpayer dollars called “Foreign and Military Aid” Back to themselves through Family and Friends as well as corporate donations.
The Corruption in Politics is not what scares me. What scares me is how comfortable people are DOING NOTHING ABOUT IT!!!!
Because Obama hates America and Jews and Biden is a senile puppet. This last election is the biggest scam ever perpetrated on the American people. And all you liberals out there who still support them is a fool. I know some of you voted for Biden but certainly not enough of you to elect him.
Time for Israel to really address the Gaza Issue. Roll in, wipe out and take it all over. Do it! Do it yesterday! Time is wasting!
Jews that voted for Biden and gun control. Will they never learn?
@Jack THAT (supporting LIEberalism) my friend is an enigma that remains a mystery and probably will long past our lifetime.
It is past time for Jewish Americans to leave the Democratic Party and become Republicans. We have Israel’s back.
Amen. Most Conservative Americans still feel that the Israels are the most loyal and devoted allies The USA has ever had. I hold a special place in my heart for Israel and all Jewish people. I hope the Jewish community here in American come to realize that it is actually we, the Conservatives that now back them here. The Liberals are only interested in themselves!
@ Joseph when I owned my own engineering firm my best overseas clients were the Israelis. Yes thy are shrewd business people but fair. Each time I made the trip I was treated like one of their own I found them to be warm and gracious people. Even though I am retired several of my former clients keep in contact.
I don’t think those Jews that voted for Biden really care about Israel.
