I’m sorry but why would we commit troop’s and boots to another Middle East war?
There are Americans and numerous other nationals being held by Hamas under dangerous situations. A strong democratic power like the US is and should be committed to protecting their citizens worldwide. Currently there is no direct diplomatic/military pressure from the US on Hamas to release the American hostages except supplying bombs to Israel to bombard Gaza randomly/blindly with no plan/interest of recusing the hostages.
As of today Biden hasn’t done anything meaningful to rescue Americans help by Hamas since Oct 7. Sending bombs to Israel to kill civilians isn’t the right approach for the safe return of the American hostages. Is Biden incapable of handling Hamas or does not want or confront Hamas? I believe Trump would have acted more effectively in getting those Americans back safely.
The USA has to do a balancing act between the Arab Muslims and the Israeli Jews. Part of that extends to the UN. Israel is NOT included in the UN group for the Middle East, it is included in the group covering Europe. The USA Central Command that has command authority over US troops in the Middle East does not cover Israel, that is handled by the European Command. So other than equipment, the USA has never sent combat troops to help Israel. We do not want the Arab nations to get mad and cut off the oil......
War makes money
Defense contractors are producing
Money is being cycled into the economy
Government jobs are opening
Unemployment and Inflation are further masked
It's business...
It profits no one in the White House for this punic conflict to end so abruptly, even if blood must be shed for a few $$$

First. Where are the hostages? Hamas has them hidden away in tunnels that stretch for miles. No Hollywood Rambo BS operation going to happen
Secondly Are you happy to get the US into yet another middle east war? Iraq and Afghanistan weren't enough for you?
Thirdly Israel needs to accept a two state solution and not expect the Palestinians to live packed together in a strip of land 25 miles long, stop building settlements on Palestinian West Bank land
Finally Jewish Americans should stay in the US and not reside in a place like Israel. If they choose to do then they have to take the risks
Our spooks are not very good at their jobs these days?
I think our spooks are probably good enough at their jobs that Americans would cringe at what they're capable of. But I also suspect the Israelis are better. And probably less worried about what people think.
