The Israel Defense and Security Forum (IDSF) is appalled by the heinous attack on Israel

“The Israel Defense and Security Forum (IDSF) is appalled by the heinous attack on Israel. This unprecedented terror attack must generate an unprecedented Israeli response. Everything that Israel has done in the last 20 years was not enough. Israel must now destroy the Hamas leadership and all of its capabilities. Israel needs to fundamentally alter the situation in Gaza, sending a resounding message that Hamas will not survive this audacious attack on Israel.

This is not just a battle between Israel and Hamas, it is a war with Iran. Israel is defending itself against Iran. Iran has committed Hamas to a suicide mission to prevent the US-Israel-Sunni alliance and peace in the Middle East.

Every single building used by Iran and Hamas for war is a civilian building. Iran and Hamas are intentionally exposing their own civilians to become martyrs against every single counter-strike by Israel.”
