Lee Smith is 100% correct. The only reasonable counter to recent Israeli behavior is that Bibi is under tremendous pressure from families of the hostages to stay on track with the deal to get hostages out. After that, all bets are off. One would have thought that would be the case after receiving the four coffins on Thursday and the ensuing horrors.
Thinking about Adam's insightful post and Lee Smith’s comments, let alone policies and decisions made long, long (years) before 22nd-23rd Tishrei 5784, I'm reminded of the following poem by Nathan Alterman.
The United States executive is no longer in the way - indeed, now supports total Hamas annihilation to the tune of an additional $8 billion in arms to clear Gaza of Hamas followers! But Jacob - and PM Benjamin too - seem hesitant. Oh Jacob, PM Benjamin - be a Joshua! - and not like the others who kept the Hebrews in the wilderness for forty more years.
Adam Schiff is not an “enemy of Trump”. He is an enemy of the US and the Constitution for aiding and abetting an attempted coup upon the legitimately elected President of the United States. And he’s far from the only one who was engaged in that plot.
If the FBI and/or the DOJ do decide to bring charges against him and others for their parts in that coup attempt, it would be far, far from any sort of a “partisan attack”.
On the contrary, it would be thoroughly justified according to the Rule of Law.
Cleaning out Gaza, (and down the line the West Bank - but that’s a discussion for another day), is the only sane solution to this madness. The problems in accomplishing that are many, number one being how to proceed with such an effort when even the Arab nations themselves want nothing to do with them.
Also, the images of such a mass evacuation when forced upon them (and it would most definitely end up being so), would be the stuff of dreams for the antisemitic hordes around the world to use to rage against Israel. But then, they do that no matter what Israel does, making it not one of the most major concerns, except to the Left factions within Israel, who for no rational basis in reality seem to cling to the idea that they can somehow still live side by side with these barbarians.
Trump see this “solution”, rightly, as the only way Israel can ever have a future of relative peace and stability.
How this plan will ever be implemented I believe we shall find out - sooner rather than later.
"The Conservative Political Action Conference, which has been playing out in Washington over the past week, is the subject of scandal today due to its chairman.."
I haven't followed that particular subject much..
But I have to say, the new conservatives seem to be a little different maybe. Watching Kid Rock sing some interesting lurid lyrics - to an ecstatic crowed - bothered me at first, but then I thought, "big tent" has to have some uncomfortableness to it I suppose. But what bothered me more was how quickly the whole crowed went right into the next song - and just as ecstatic - of God Bless America.

Oh yes. Schiff joined other dems at the FBI to protest. There were FIVE total.
Methinks lady Schiff protesteth too much. Talk about projection.
Thinking about Adam's insightful post and Lee Smith’s comments, let alone policies and decisions made long, long (years) before 22nd-23rd Tishrei 5784, I'm reminded of the following poem by Nathan Alterman.
Thus Satan Said
“How will I overcome
this one who is under siege?
He possesses bravery, ingenuity,
weapons of war and resourcefulness.”
And he said: “I’ll not sap his strength,
Nor fill his heart with cowardice,
nor overwhelm him with discouragement
As in days gone by.
I will only do this:
I will cast a shadow of dullness over his mind
until he forgets that justice is with him.”
***
This is what the Satan said and it was as if
the heavens trembled in fear
as they saw him rise
to execute his plan.
"Israeli Indecision Is Emboldening Hamas"
Absolutely correct!

Why would Kash ever rule out retributive actions?
Make him tremble make him shake shiff is the big flake
I don’t see his going after these criminals as “retributive” any more than a cop arresting a crook is retributive.
They broke the law, HUGELY.
Justice must prevail, and the Rule of Law upheld if we are to survive as a nation.
retribution
/rĕt″rə-byoo͞′shən/
noun
the act of taking revenge (harming someone in retaliation for something harmful that they have done) especially in the next life
the swiftness of divine retribution
a justly deserved penalty
the act of correcting for your wrongdoing
👆
Retribution will be how the Left frames it, as in their interpretation meaning an “unjust act based on politics”.
It will be no such thing.

Trump gave Bibi a green light to break off these Biden imposed talks and to do whatever is necessary Watch what happens
“Zelensky, for all his heroism…”
🙄Give me a fucking break. 🤦♂️

The age of Manichaean ideological purity and what it hath wrought is over. Hopefully. Bring on the big tent and nuance.
I think you might be conflating nuance with overt hypocrisy.
Note the usage of the word “and”. My comment is about Dogma and
ideological rigidity. Be careful not to cast your own stone…
