. . . the elected government of the Gazans did. Like I said, hopefully they learned enough not to do it again.

Watch the celebrations in the street on October 7 in Gaza City as a truly innocent woman's corpse was paraded through the streets to the celebratory shouts of Allahu Akbar. All that was found of her was a fragment of her skull.

Just one inhuman atrocity amongst thousands perpetrated on that day and since.

Tell me about innocent civilians.

Israel didn't start the war, but they will win it. And they should.
