IT'S WAR...

HISTORICAL FACTS

The word Palestine derives from Philistia, the name given by Greek writers to the land of the Philistines, who in the 12th century bce occupied a small pocket of land on the southern coast, between modern Tel Aviv–Yafo and Gaza.

In 1917, in order to win Jewish support for Britain's First World War effort, the British Balfour Declaration promised the establishment of a Jewish national home in Ottoman-controlled Palestine.

While the State of Israel was established on 15 May 1948 and admitted to the United Nations, a Palestinian State was not established. The remaining territories of pre-1948 Palestine, the West Bank - including East Jerusalem- and Gaza Strip, were administered from 1948 till 1967 by Jordan and Egypt, respectively.

The 1968 Palestinian National Covenant described Palestine as the "homeland of the Arab Palestinian people", with "the boundaries it had during the British Mandate". However, since the 1988 Palestinian Declaration of Independence, the term State of Palestine refers only to the West Bank and the Gaza Strip.

Hamas is a militant group that controls the GAZA STRIP.

Yesterday, Hamas executed an unprovoked attack against Israel.  Hours later, Israel's Prime Minister, Netanyahu, declares war on Hamas.  Iran and Hezbollah applaud.  Hezbollah operates out of Lebanon, whose southern borders touch Israel's northern borders.  Both Hezbollah and Hamas want Israel destroyed.

There is a good possibility that IRAN gave Hamas money to attack Israel from the six billion of Iran's money that was frozen, that Biden gave back to them.  If that is true, it is water over the dam but an indication that Biden's decision making process is flawed.

Will this DECLARED WAR, bring in countries like the USA, Great Britain, Europe, NATO, to stand up against Iran, Iraq, most of the Middle East (minus Egypt and Jordan), Russia, China, and others???

If so...  could this lead to a WORLD WAR III?

Right now, the USA is CASH POOR, having invested tons of money into Ukraine to fight the Russians, along with sitting on top of the largest NATIONAL DEBT since the creation of this country in 1776.  Our social programs like Medicare, Social Security, and Unemployment Insurance have put enormous strains on the national budget.  If we print more money, we risk deflating the value of the dollar and further increasing inflation.

A world war would be disastrous for the USA...  at this time.

With the USA between a rock and a hard place, will we back away from our support of Israel?
