Israeli prime minister Benjamin Netanyahu (quote)

and savage way. But though, Israel did not start this war, Israel will finish it.
Hamas terrorists bombed, burned and executed children. They are savages.
Hamas is ISIS. And just as the forces of civilization united to defeat ISIS. The forces

by attacking us they have made a mistake of historic proportions. We will exact
a price that will be remembered by them and Israel’s other enemies for decades
to come.”

Lift your eyes now and look from the place where you are—northward, southward,
eastward, and westward;
Genesis 13:15 For all the land which you see I give to you and your descendants
forever.
Genesis 13:16 And I will make your descendants as the dust of the earth; so that if
a man could number the dust of the earth, then your descendants also could be
numbered.
