Proof positive that Israel should not have taken U.S. advice to give-up Gaza and the West Bank. Moreover, that Israel actually did “surrender” this property, and allowed its enemies onto their doorstep. Time to eradicate and deport these bozos once-and-for-all! Seal your borders, and never let the Animalstinians in again!!
