This is the devastating cost of protecting the unicorn in the room (“innocent Gazans” – there aren’t any). Enough. The world will condemn Israel no matter what they do.
The madness of rewarding hostage by talking ceasefire is a recipe for more hostage taking.

21 Israeli Soldiers Perish in Collapse of Two Gaza Buildings Triggered by Hamas, the Deadliest Attack of the War
Netanyahu, undaunted despite protests, vows to press ahead, as Gallant declares the war ‘will determine the future of Israel for decades to come.’

Twenty-one soldiers were killed and several others injured in the Gaza Strip in the deadliest attack on Israel’s forces since the October 7 Hamas attacks that triggered the war, the military said Tuesday, a major setback that could add to mounting calls for a cease-fire.
The reservists were preparing explosives to demolish two buildings in central Gaza on Monday when a terrorist fired a rocket-propelled grenade at a tank nearby. The blast triggered the explosives, causing both two-story buildings to collapse on the soldiers inside.
It was unclear to what extent the buildings’ collapse was due to the force of the RPG and how much was caused by the secondary explosions of the mines, but it is now being investigated. According to Israeli press reports, the scene of the destruction resembled the aftermath of an earthquake and rescue activities were under way for several hours.
Prime Minister Netanyahu has vowed to press ahead until Israel crushes the ruling Hamas terrorist group and wins the freedom of the more than 100 hostages held captive in Gaza. Israelis are increasingly divided on the question of whether it is possible to do either, and large numbers of Israeli casualties have pressured Israel’s government to halt past military operations.
“On this difficult and painful morning,” the defense minister, Yoav Gallant, stated on X, “the most tragic news reached many homes in Israel; our hearts are with the dear families in their most difficult time. This is a war that will determine the future of Israel for decades to come — the fall of the fighters is a requirement to achieve the goals of the war.”
The fallen soldiers in Monday’s incident were pressing ahead with those goals, under challenging circumstances. According to the Times of Israel, they were undertaking efforts to destroy Hamas sites as part of a wider effort to establish a buffer zone that can eventually allow the residents of Israeli communities that border Gaza to safely return to their homes.
Another Israeli minister, Benny Gantz, expressed his “heartfelt condolences to the families of the fallen and wishes of recovery to the wounded,” adding on X, “We must be united, remember the heavy price we are forced to pay for such a just war and the lofty goal for which our heroes fell — to secure our future, to return our daughters and sons, and to take care of Israel forever.”
In the meantime, families of the hostages and many of their supporters have called for Israel to reach a cease-fire deal, saying that time is running out to bring the hostages home alive. On Monday, dozens of hostages’ relatives stormed a Knesset committee meeting, demanding a deal to win their loved ones’ release.
Israel’s offensive in the Gaza Strip pounded the southern city of Khan Younis on Monday, pushing thousands of Palestinians to flee even farther south. Hamas is believed to have suffered heavy losses but has continued to put up stiff resistance in the face of one of the deadliest air and ground offensives in recent history.

May they rest in peace. Pretty sure blood martyrdom qualifies for sainthood, but that’s just my opinion.
Not a criticism … but often forgotten point …
Standing down to a bully often incites and invites further aggression.
Standing down to Islam tends to inflame violence and tension.
Which leads to a conclusion …
… Bibi and the rest of his government – anyone loyal that is …
… needs to remind the world that appeasement, backing off, standing down, or any other form of surrender …
… shows weakness and WILL lead to violence …
I’ve seen some ‘influencers’ – young Jewish men – say this on social media,
… but if anyone in authority has said this … I’ve missed it.
Again,
G-d bless the 21 victims of this attack … and we pray for all of the IDF soldiers fallen, injured, and still fighting …

These gallant young men gave their lives not just for Israel but for all of Western Civilization in its 1440-year battle against the armies of Satan. They join the millions who have heroically fallen before them in a special Hall of Greatest Honor.

John, I don’t know when I’ve read a more beautiful post. Their gallantry inspired you. They ARE in what you term, “Hall of Greatest Honor”. So young! Heaven is their reward-where else would they be after having died selflessly, for the good?

The head of the snake is Iran. They must not get the bomb Ezekiel 25:17 said: “The path of the righteous man is beset on all sides by the inequities of the selfish and the tyranny of evil men. Blessed is he who, in the name of charity and good will, shepherds the weak through the valley of the darkness. For he is truly his brother’s keeper and the finder of lost children. And I will strike down upon thee with great vengeance and furious anger those who attempt to destroy my brothers. And you will know I am the Lord when I lay my vemgeance on you.” I’m waiting for this!

The General staff of Israel should be court martialed and imprisoned. Glant refused to do anything in the lead up to the massacre and sat on his hands for hours whilst Jews were being raped and orgiastically slaughtered. Finkelman ordered Zahal to paint over the graffiti he the soldiers had written. Finkelman should get the severest penalty for that.
As for this demand that we feel sorry for the “fakenstinians,” Basil Liddel Hart warned that no country won a war by hugging and cherishing the enemy.
p.s., the Knesset should pass a law that declares that antisemites have no right to life. The Sanhedrein can decide the death warrants and such wet operations should be done quietly.
p.s. antisemite should be one word without a hyphen in between.
