When the leaders of Hamas chant “From the river to the sea,” they convey their absolute hatred of Israel and the Jewish people. Murdering all Jews from the Jordan River to the Mediterranean Sea would constitute genocide.

What Hamas failed to imagine was that the river and the sea would be brought upon them. Below Gaza, underneath the earth, exists a network of tunnels constructed by Hamas terrorists. Israel has constructed a brilliant plan to flood those tunnels of terror in response to the murders of Jews on Oct. 7.

I commend the Israel Defense Forces and their heroic efforts to defend the sovereignty of their nation. American leaders could learn a thing or two from Israel’s valor and thirst for victory. Israel should not abide by the United Nations’ absurd calls for a cease-fire. Israel must not bend the knee to antisemitic universities, pro-Hamas protesters or socialists in the West.



Flooding the tunnels of terror is an effective plan and a wise use of military resources. To avenge the deaths of innocent men, women and babies, I say, “Let it rain!”
