Saudi Arabia blames Israel for ‘unprecedented’ Hamas terror attack

[1LoverofGod]

Saudi Arabia accused Israel of provoking Palestinian hostility after a lethal Hamas attack from Gaza that claimed scores of Israeli lives.

“The kingdom calls for an immediate halt to the escalation between the two sides, the protection of civilians, and restraint,” the Saudi Foreign Ministry said Saturday, as Israeli Defense Forces engage in “gun battles” with Hamas terrorists.

“The Kingdom recalls its repeated warnings of the dangers of the explosion of the situations as a result of the continued occupations, the deprivation of the Palestinian people of their legitimate rights, and the repeating of systematic provocation against its sanctities.”
That statement stirred frustration and disappointment in American observers of the Saudi-Israeli relationship. United States officials have nurtured in recent months closed-door negotiations over a potential normalization of diplomatic relations between the Gulf Arab monarchy and the Jewish democracy.

That diplomatic effort has been galvanized by a shared sense of threats from Iran, whose leaders celebrated the carnage on Saturday.

This time Israel must annihilate the enemy, occupy Gaza, and install a new govmint. They need to push the enemy combatants into the sea and search and destroy every nook and cranny of Gaza for weapons and destroy every building that is found to have weapons in them. There probably won't be many buildings left standing if they do that.
