Hamas' Surprise Attack on Israel: Israel Going to War

[Uncrowned Guard]

A devastating and unexpected multi-pronged attack from Hamas has sent shockwaves across Israel. Launching a combination of air, sea, and land offensives, Hamas militants have been responsible for significant casualties and unrest within Israeli borders. With an unparalleled barrage of rockets and fighters infiltrating the southern Israeli boundary, there's a mounting tension in the region that calls for a deep dive into analysis, international responses, and what the future might hold.

This whole situation is just terrible but I can't help but blame the US government for some of this. They allocated 6 billion to Iran and there are rumors that these men got their weapons from Ukraine. Either way, it would appear the US funded some or all of this. I am just so sick of all this death and destruction from groups like this.

That it is.  American influence in the area has certainly both helped and hurt the overall situation, I don't really know if it would make much sense for Ukraine to arm Hamas as Israel is giving them their Iron Dome system to fight Russia, but probably not anymore.  The main benefactor of this on an International level is probably Russia, so that might be a better source to look towards if outside help is suspected.

Just an update along the way, the US is sending a carrier group to the area.
