Israel will push on with its offensive against Hamas, including into the southern Gaza city of Rafah, despite growing international pressure to stop, Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu said on Thursday.

Netanyahu has vowed to destroy Hamas after its fighters attacked southern Israel on Oct. 7, killing 1,200 people and abducting 253, according to Israeli tallies. More than 30,000 people have been killed in Gaza during Israel's subsequent offensive, Palestinian health authorities estimate, prompting worldwide criticism and condemnation.

"There is international pressure and it's growing, but particularly when the international pressure rises, we must close ranks, we need to stand together against the attempts to stop the war," he said.

This was you several comments ago.

Christians will back the 12 Tribes of Israel because they’re the foundation of their religion. You can’t have Christianity without accepting God chose the Jews as his people and created the Kingdom of God and distributed it amongst Jacob’s 12 sons. If this is not true, nothing after it is either including Jesus as the Son of God, gentiles being accepted, and being judged be the 12 thrones in End Times.

This is demonstrably wrong. If you want to argue that Christians are hypocrites then fine. But the mere existence of that story doesn't create an obligation and most Christians don't even connect that to modern Israel.
