so you are ok with effectively de-homing 2.3million people and basically going full Ghengis Khan scorched earth on all Palestinians ? It's ok if you are just be honest about it. How many of those woem and chidlren will you offer a place to in your homne when theirs are razed, guessing none, because they are mostly brown skinned right ?..................

He knows full well what that’s for. If other countries kick off it’s a big deterrent. What else does he want? Israel to just nuke an invading country. It’s about containing this war and not letting it blow up into something bigger.

What's skin colour got to do with it? :S
It isn't the first time countries have been deleted, and it won't be the last. The Civilians that want to live in a civilised world need to do their best to get out.
and if they get out and have nothing you will offer a place in your home to some of them right ?........................
He’s right though. The actual physical presence of a US carrier group serves no purpose. The idea that it would deter other Arab nations from assisting Gaza or Hamas seems like a solution to a problem that doesn’t exist.

Why would I? They have folk much closer to them/aligned to their needs. Also, my house is a mess. I haven't even loaded the dishwasher yet.

Well then it isn't a problem, is it? :S
true, but he can kind of keep it in his pants while it's all still a bit raw surely ? just doesn't seem like a particularly tactful piece of diplomacy to engage in right now.

nato should kick them out, it's bound to happen eventually, may as well rip the plaster off now.
Iran is the main one and they aren’t an Arab country. Syria is another that may join and they are Arab. The problem is there are several countries in the region that could join for and against which can just get out of hand really quickly.

Na they owe them a bunch of money now. Friends 4 lyfe
Solves the issue tho tbf : ironic reply I think, watch the planes start falling out of the sky, suicide bombers ....
Israeli ambassador yesterday made the comment of most Jews killed since holocaust, and the irony of them wiping out another race presumably wouldn't be lost.
US carrier probably helping improve intelligence/monitoring.

throw out Turkey ?
not happening, it's basically the gateway to military action in the middle east. As much as they would probably like to have Israel as their gateway, politically that would blow up really fast when it comes to relationship management (if there is any left) with other Arab nations.
My point is a carrier group will not act as a deterrent in that scenario. If anything it will raise tensions in the region.

guessing they are all looking for express tickets to Jesus then..............
It sends a strong message that Israel isn’t alone and not to get involved. It’s a massive deterrent. Plus it helps secure supplies going into Israel in case they get cut off for some reason.

I haven't read all the posts in this very long thread so I apologise if this has been mentioned elswhere.
The IDF historically has not attacked indiscriminately. A few years ago when attacking locations rockets where launched from they used to phone the property and tell them they were going to use artillery. Apparently according to our Home Secretary they currently often use a "light" artillery shell to mark the location that does minimal damage then use a "heavy" artillery shell to obliterate it. This gives civillians time to escape.
The IDF accepts that collateral damage occurs, killing the wrong people, but that is a byproduct of what is happening not the purpose. In addition it must be noted that Hamas deliberately places it's weapons in civilian buildings for the protection it gives and the affect of the retaliation. In a narrow respect the IDF shows more concern for Palestinian lives than Hamas.
When Hamas attacks civillians are the preferred target not a byproduct
