#Israel #Hamas #Palestine
No news but israel for two days ,,,,,,,xxx
Is this israeli news??????
911 did not reshaped the USA. 911 reshaped Afghanistan and Iraq ia bad way.
It didn’t reshape the US as you let more terrorist in look at your illegal migrants , what happens when they all turn on US
What needs to be asked is why this has started now and why are the militants waving OUR guns from Afghanistan ? Why is Biden trading 6 million dollors, and why on earth was Obama and why is Biden giving money to country’s that pay to slay there’s a LAW we have named after an American that was slaughter by terrorists and country’s who are known to pay n slay are strictly forbidden guns from us AMERICAN TAX PAYERS WE ARE DONE WITH ALL THIS Craziness , ,🙏🙏🙏FOR ALL TO FIND PEACE LOVE AND HOPE
All to this hate.why not do what Susie q sead .rich merry the poor.poor merry the rich .things will balance out and there will be no more poverty in no more wars.
We miss you Susie q
The best inheritance a father can give his children is to show them how to work. The best inheritance a grandfather can give his grandchildren is a safe country…..Joe grand father
Man will die. Nations will rise and fall. But an idea will live on… President JFK
Israel: killed
Gaza: “Dead”
Hamas,,, a disaster of humanity.
Most likely started from spending violation🤦🏾
Partisan News Reporting, Government State Media Properganda 🥸
Tribal wars should remain Tribal
Palestinians “have no where to run”; Egypt has locked the gates. (but they promise to toss bread over the fence)
They were stupid enough to take American hostages?? I suspect that there is a team of very talented individuals on their way now.
They should show both sides not only one…there’s so many Palestinian children being killed and dismembered too . Everyone loses in this War…The innocent are the ones paying the price
ITS SO TOUGH TO WATCH. Who in their right mind hurts kids?!?!
Man’s inhumanity to man.
Too graphic please stop
What a waste of human beings lives over what? Religion, land, beliefs, WOW! Really 😭😢😭😢😭 sad
They should have had guns to defend themselves the Israeli government are like the dems now they wish their people were armed
The United States of America is about to make history. It is going to become the only country in the world to have ar convict as president. It’s going to be the only country in the world run from a jail cell.hes going to have to report to his parole officer once a month and he’s not going to be able to leave Washington . Because of United States country run by the rule of law . Which means that the law applies to everybody even the ruler
Convicts are not allowed to vote .but we’re going to have a president that’s a convict.only in America
Absolutely pathetic and pure hypocrisy … not even 20 seconds coverage of the
Genocide committing as we speak by the Israelis Military against civilians.
Biden couldn’t scare a mouse , that is not how you show authority and let another country to know better. Lord help us we have to get a president who is mentally able to talk and walk , and doesn’t make us look like fools
You know what’s wild, US got undercover over there risking their lives. But we can’t tell the people. I know this for a FACT
I would kick all of those students out of college and keep there tuition
This is wrong Netanyahu was warned by Egypt he blew them off.
Isreal is supposed to have the best INTELLEGENCE in the World.
You mean to tell me you did not know or see an ARMY of men practicing for this Attack for over a year?🤔🤔🤔
This is a false flag attack that Isreal allowed to happen just so they can DESTROY THE PALESTINEAN PEOPLE AND STEAL THE REST OF THEIR LAND…
Key words used 9/11 and Pearl Harbor attack.
9/11 was a false flag attack just so that America could go to war with Iraq. We never found weapons of mass DISTRUCTION 🤔🤔🤔.
Now Isreal is attacked and playing the victim just so that America can help them bully the PALESTINEAN People.
Netanyahu needs to be arrested right now because he allowed this attack to happen.
No one remembers the USS Liberty an unarmed American ship that Isreal ATTACKED back in June 1967 during the Arab Isreal war.
Isreal ATTACKED AND KILLED AMERICANS AND THEY TRIED TO BLAME THE EGYPTIANS FOR IT…
They pulled a false flag attack to try to get America to support them in their war.
Johnson covered everything up because the Jewish families have LOTS OF MONEY.
Now Isreal is Once again Causing a False Flag event to pull America into their WAR.
This has to STOP!!!!!
YOU ARE ALL BEING LIED TO!!!!
WE NEED PEACE PLEASE STOP THE GOVERNMENT LIES!!!!
THEY ARE KILLING INNOCENT PEOPLE ON BOTH SIDES JUST SO ISREAL CAN WIPE OUT THE PALESTINEAN PEOPLE AND STEAL THE REST OF THEIR LANDS….
ALL OF THESE GOVERNMENT POLITICANS ARE PLOTTING TOGETHER AND SENDING INNOCENT PEOPLE TO DO THEIR DIRTY WORK.
HOW MANY MORE OF US HAVE TO DIE JUST TO SUPPORT THEIR EVIL AGENDAS???🤔🤔🤔
PLEASE WAKE UP PEOPLE THIS IS GENOCIDE AND POPULATION CONTROL AND ANOTHER LAND GRAB FOR THE RICH!!!!
RUSSIA, CHINA, AND IRAN ARE ALL DICTATORSHIPS THAT WANT TO KEEP THEIR POWER OVER PEOPLE….
THIS NEEDS TO STOP!!!!
PLEASE STOP ALLOWING THESE GOVERNMENT ELITES TO TURN THE WORLD AGAINST EACH OTHER!!!!
WE NEED PEACE!!!!!
WE ALL LIVE ON THIS PLANET TOGETHER!!!!
THE WORLD IS FALLING APART BECAUSE WE ARE SO DIVIDED BY HATE!!!!
WHO IS DIVIDING US???
YOU ALL HAVE A CHOICE IN YOUR LIVES THAT YOU MAKE FOR YOURSELF!!!
LEARN TO SEE THROUGH THE LIES AND DECEPTIONS AND THINK FOR YOURSELF!!!
AMERICA SHOULD NOT GET INVOLVED!!!
ISREAL HAS ALLOWED THIS ATTACK TO HAPPEN JUST SO THEY CAN HAVE WHAT THEY WANT!!!😡🤬😤
HERE IS THE VIDEO ABOUT THE USS LIBERTY WATCH IT AND THINK FOR YOURSELF!!!

Mr. Holt You are a phenomenal news commentator . Thank you for sharing your wonderful journey with the World. We Love You …
THIS IS SCRIPTED FROM LONG AGO PROPHECY IT WOULD BE TRITE TO SAY “MY OUR HEARTS AND PRAYERS GO OUT TO THESE PEOPLE CAUGHT IN THESE HORRIFIC UNIMAGINABLE ATROCITIES AND UNDENIABLE SUFFERING AND ANGUISH WE CAN ONLY HOPE THIS ENDS ASAP BUT THAT IS NAIEVE WHEN IT COMES TO A SITUATION LIKE THIS IT WILL TAKE MORE THAN A MIRACLE LIKE THE SECOND COMING OF JESUS HIMSELF I 🙏
😞🙏 prayers for the innocent victims in Israel
,🙏
But they both are killing women and children. 🤷🏿♂️🤔
What about the Israeli atrocities?? Both sides are killing children. Israel has been committing inhuman acts for many years against Palestinian families. Speak truth to hate.
If they could do this then what can you do ? Biden Stop talking and stop what’s going on 😢
I just hate violence, please god , the creator, please do something 🙏🙏🙏
Religion strikes again
US should stay out of it. Israel has gotten plenty of US financial and military support already.
Hamas does not represent Palestinians. The situation will never change until Palestinians rise up and attack Hamas themselves.
No thanks to our dishonest and incompetent president Biden.
I pray for Palestine’s people God Bless you in your freedom fight. I support for the Palestinian freedom from made up Palestine by the Brits, french, german all other pink trash that are destroying the lives ofthe people living there. Evil but being imprisoned in your own town is creepy. I get it, I’m so sorry for all of your loses. Lives, family, religion & I know the Israleis are attacking you.
It’s amazing with all of our Understanding of our planet, our bodies and this time in man’s history we can achieve great things, but we are collectively beast in hearts. How can two people’s with the knowledge and History that they have be so blind. It’s going to end well for either of them. No one is right concerning this Total disregard of human life. For generations they have slaughter each other, and there is nothing the world can do about it. Both people’s chose hate neither chose love compassion or kindness, who can stand before envy and strife. These two have destroyed Nations displaced the world. No weapon yet has been able to conquer these two. Only love can but neither side has it. With all there weapons and technology they are poor on this love.
I know how to end the war. End TERRORISM. I know how to end the war. End TERRORISM. I know how to end the war. End TERRORISM🌍💪
It’s NOT Iran. It’s The ISLAMIC REPUBLIC, The Terrorist Rulers of Iran….
Why don’t you people get it? It’s NOT the Iranian backed, it’s the ISLAMIC REPUBLIC backed.
Do NOT Confuse the People of Iran with its “TERRORIST” Rulers, The ISLAMIC REPUBLIC !
GOT It? Good….
The scales of justice choose Israel.
So sad, we never learn from War, what is the point in killing each other, when our World is dying..
You covering only one side what about the other side people suffering
He is really overseas 😂😅
The problem with jews and Muslims
Is
Neither believe Jesus is the savior
Only Jesus saves from sin
Iran surprised? They armed & funded it together with Quatar!
USA tells Americans they have to pay for their own expenses to get out of Israel,while USA pays for Illegal migrants to get in USA
Lester is getting creepier by the minute
I hope Biden is not the president when ww3 starts!!
3:39 😂
why are other countries more important tha the US?
Shame on you NBC and Lester, so much coverage on the evil actions of Hamas, but very little on the evil actions of Isreal throught their history in the region. you focus on personal Isreali lives, but what about the people of Palestine, what about their families, children, women and men, they are not Hamas. Oh poor poor Isreal, they will be judged, and so will you.
It’s stupid for people to think that the government is supposed to know where everybody is when bombs start dropping. Was anybody holding Israel accountable to know where their friends and family were when there was no bombs falling from the sky? Why call home thousands of mikes away just to say I love you? Call the police, call the government. So it’s stupid to think everyone is going to be immediately located unless they have been chipped. Is Lester in Chicago or Israel? How’s he sitting down with these people?
Hamas or Isis👹👿😈 what’s a difference between Pure Evils
How can we as non military people comment on other country issues or war. Go fight a war then you have the right to comment…
Peace ✌️ is possible.
This is getting old talking about this war their is other news n their both killers n why hasn’t either of their gods stepped up lol but seriously this is what religion is all about lol you have to hate other religions lol n no god has fixed anything just free money n free thoughts and prayers
Hey lester. Either fight for what you thin is right. Or just your stupid journalist mouth. You never go into conflict. Anyone who watches knows you go in after. All praise lester holt. Savior of the free world
Palestinians in gaza were urged by Israel to leave to go to Sinai peninsula why don’t they leave!
And Blinken you lie about the billion of dollars you released to Iran according to reports we heard. Americans ARE NOT STUPID.
I hated to see a war 😢😢😢
Mr Lester Holt I know you are good man and you should tell the truth when it comes to the news I watch you all the times because you are honest guy,please show what Israel doing in Gaza no water no food no piowe to be on the right side tell us what is Palestinian is going through because they trust you as African American not like your own people.
How stupid you all are… Israel brought this war apon itself for Biden to profit from it.. War War Biden’s game of dearh…
Why has the atrocious actions by Israel not been included in reports?
Flesh wound …go fight …quit crying
Yaaaaaay for your terrorist support. Just so you all know. Hamas and the Philistines are about to be wiped off the map. THANK ALLAH
War good God what is it good for ABSOLUTELY NOTHING 😢
seems like a long time coming
This report is very one sided. We (the world) have ignored for too long how the Palestinians were treated by 🇮🇱. Regardless, that’s no excuse to target civilians. The ironic thing is Israel had been targeting Palestinian civilians the exact same way. This war has no “, Good guys”. They’re all bad. This will never end until one side is completely eliminated. It’s a very sad situation. All of us have blood on our hands.
I support all civilians but condemn both governments.
Didn’t these people colonize Israel in 1948?. Are these not the true Israelites? No ,they are not.
Who are the true Israelites of the bible?. I know who they are, and they are not these colonizers. Israel is a part of Africa even though they don’t want you to believe that. Jews are black just like yahshua is. These people don’t even believe in Jesus. Do your research!!. . yes, all lives matter..and any death is sad. Look at the facts. Why would God let this happen to ” his” people? These are not. The Most High is in control!! He is a God of war!
His Will be done on earth as it is in heaven. Read Your bible. I don’t take sides. READ YOUR BIBLE!!! Pray. War is sad on both sides. God decides All. All we can do is pray for all!!❤
Religion destroying the world…pathetic…and innocent people die for this crap ..
Imagine what Hamas would do to aoc and her squad… wake up left!!!!
I love dogs, I saw them shoot a dog twice…they are less than a dog, to call them animals, is a insult to animals, they are devils
I will not let the media change the nerative!!!! Hamas started this!!!!!!
Glass it all
Hamas is holding it’s own people, those civilian residents of Gaza, hostage. Hamas hides behind the skirts of women and the playthings of children, using those good people who only want to live their lives peacefully, as hostages, counting them as collateral damage, or even worse, as currency in the conflict. And they also know that any who survive this terror will be converted to their cause, and will foster a life-long rabid hatred of “the other side.” The Hamas are evil people, they care nothing for the loss of ANY life except as its worth as another piece on the game board.
One thing we can learn is that Israel’s technology for monitoring and warning for border security was insufficient. Cameras and sensors failed at the job. By this deadly example the USA cannot rely on similar systems. Funding for border security must include actual officers as the main defense.
Why killed if they were leaving? I understand trying to find hostages, and the terrible anger, wanting to save relatives possibly wounded and dying in custody as hostages…. but this means more dead, rather than save the living, leaving? How can they leave, like you ask, if they have no money, or a place that will take them in, or a place to live at night, or money to eat, or get away from people intent on harming people fleeing. This is so frightening, but how many cities in the Mideast and Africa, and South America, have had wars and insurgencies, and military forces invading and seizing power in their region or country, caused hundreds of thousands of citizens to flee, no matter where, just run to get away from guns, before the militarized forces, taking over the buildings and killing openly and seizing hostages, and we have lost our balance and need for people to live without fear.
What did we do wrong, that we failed at a time when so many people live in fear day to day. That was a right line, that said, take care of one another, since there is no other way at all open….
