Following the surprise attack by Hamas in southern Israel over the weekend, Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu issued a statement vowing to defeat Hamas with haste. Though it will "take time," Netanyahu says that Israel will not tolerate Islamic terrorists marching into the land and snatching up grandparents, women, and children as part of their jihad. Circulating photos and video footage depict women being marched into vehicles, often bloodied and bruised with their hands behind their backs. Other pictures show what appear to be Israeli pensioners being collected from the Gaza Strip on golf carts while families were forced into Hamas trucks. Hundreds of people have died and thousands are reported wounded, with the counts for both increasing faster than news reports can even publish. All of this means that Israel is now "at war," according to Netanyahu, who says his country will eventually "settle the score" with Palestinian militants.

Hamas calls for reinforcements from nearby Arab, Islamic nations in fight with Israel

The United Nations Security Council (UNSC) held an emergency, closed-door meeting after the attack, but failed to achieve the unanimity needed to issue any kind of joint statement about the matter. Israel responded to this by reiterating its declaration of war, specifically against the inhabitants of the densely-populated Gaza Strip. "There are a good number of countries that condemned the Hamas attacks. They’re obviously not all," complained senior United States diplomat Robert Wood following the UN session. The U.S. directly called on the council's 15 members to strongly condemn Hamas, which not all of them agreed to do. "You could probably figure out one of them without me saying anything," Wood added, referring to Russia, whom the West largely hates for invading Ukraine in an attempt to rid the nation of deadly bioweapons laboratories and other corruption. Diplomats who attended the UNSC meeting say that certain members, led by Russia, were hoping for a broader focus than just condemning Hamas, which is why they refused to issue a unanimous vote for a joint statement of condemnation. "My message was to stop the fighting immediately and to go to a ceasefire and to meaningful negotiations, which was told for decades," said Vassily Nebenzia, Russia's UN ambassador. "This is partly the result of unresolved issues." As this is all taking place, Hamas has called on other Arab and Islamic nations to lend their support to its efforts after at least 198 Palestinians were killed, and another at least 1,610 wounded, amid Israel's retaliation. "I tell Hamas, you are responsible for the wellbeing of captives, Israel will settle the score with anyone who harms them," Netanyahu proclaimed the day of the attack. "What happened today has never been seen in Israel, we will take mighty vengeance for this black day." At the UNSC meeting, Palestinian Ambassador Riyad Mansour called on diplomats to focus on ending the Israeli occupation of the West Bank. "Regrettably, history for some media and politicians starts when Israelis are killed," Mansour is quoted as saying. "This is not a time to let Israel double down on its terrible choices. This is a time to tell Israel it needs to change course, that there is a path to peace where neither Palestinians nor Israelis are killed." In an open letter sent to the UNSC members ahead of the emergency meeting, three Palestinian human rights organizations blamed UN inaction for the latest violence, accusing its members of being "complicit" in the attack.
