Hamas and its terrorist allies have launched more than 1,000 rockets and missiles from Gaza, targeting Israeli civilians. In response, Israel has conducted airstrikes on military targets and terror-group leaders — which is the least any nation would do.
It’s the most violent escalation between the two sides since 2014, but it’s entirely Hamas’ fault.
Lefties around the globe are again condemning Israel for its self-defense. But as Lior Haiat of its Foreign Affairs Ministry noted Wednesday, Israel is “targeting those terrorists specifically” and “in an accurate and measured way.”
So far, the count is 14 senior Hamas commanders and officials dead, plus at least 25 Hamas and Palestinian Islamic Jihad operatives.
Civilian deaths include seven Israelis, one a child, while Palestinian authorities report 14 kids among 56 civilian deaths. But some of those Palestinian casualties are from the rockets, a fifth of which are landing short in densely populated parts of Gaza. Others are the result of the terrorists intentionally basing themselves near civilians.
The pretext for Hamas’ attacks, Jonathan S. Tobin noted in these pages, are ginned-up concerns about mosques on the Temple Mount and a complex East Jerusalem property dispute. But the real reason is that Hamas and its allies are testing President Joe Biden, to see what Israeli concessions or Washington payoffs might be achievable now that Donald Trump is out of office.
Sadly, Biden is calling on “both sides” to show restraint and intimating that his administration favors the Palestinians in the property dispute. In short, even as he’s supporting Israel’s right to defend itself, he’s signaling that Hamas will be rewarded for what in any other context would count as war crimes.
And that, sadly, guarantees that Hamas & Co. will soon be back for more.

A homeless woman was arrested on Wednesday for the hammer attack on two Asian women in Hell’s Kitchen earlier this month, police said.
Ebony Jackson, 37, was charged with assault, criminal possession of a weapon and menacing in the chilling May 4th incident, cops said.
The victims were walking on 42nd Street near 9th Avenue at around 8:40 p.m. when the stranger approached them and yelled “Take off your mask!”
She then allegedly swung a hammer at the women, hitting one of them on the left side of the face, according to the NYPD.
The 31-year-old victim suffered a gash on her forehead and was treated at NYU Langone Hospital.

If the media could take a break from obsessing over the House Republicans choosing a new conference chair, they might have noticed that Joe Biden’s presidency is falling apart.
On every major front, Biden is flailing — even by the depressingly low bar set for him by the Washington press corps.
April just saw the highest rate of inflation in 13 years, according to the Department of Labor. Prices for everything, including food and gasoline, immediately skyrocketed after Biden’s $2 trillion welfare scheme (sometimes referred to as a “stimulus package”) went into effect and flooded the economy with more money than anyone knows what to do with.
Biden’s preoccupation? Spending even more.
The unemployment rate actually went up from March to April, even as Biden bragged that he’s the one responsible for mass vaccinations that are, at least in theory, supposed to be moving people back into the workforce. But no, his extension of the obscene amount of federal unemployment benefits has would-be workers choosing to sit pretty at home cashing government checks. Those benefits don’t end for another four months, assuming they aren’t extended again (you can never assume anything with Nancy Pelosi in charge).
Fuel is running out in several states after the US fell under attack from what appears to be a Russia-based cyber-hacking group that locked up one of the East Coast’s major fuel pipelines.
The White House response to the crippling of a critical energy supply has been to throw its hands up and say, “Sorry, but the pipeline is a private company.” Whaddaya do?
After acknowledging how “seriously” Biden took the matter, he said Monday at the White House that his administration is “committed to safeguarding our critical infrastructure.” But, he added, “much of [it] is privately owned and managed, like Colonial. Private entities are making their own determination on cybersecurity.”
The media expected former President Trump to micromanage every state’s response to the pandemic. Biden is given a complete pass on a devastating attack on a major artery of our energy supply.
Last month saw yet another increase in the number of migrants illegally crossing the wide open border. In February, the first full month of Biden’s presidency, border agents encountered 100,000 migrants at the border. In March, it was another 173,000. In April, 179,000. Those numbers are higher than in any month of Trump’s presidency.

More than 120 retired generals and admirals have published an open letter questioning the legitimacy of the 2020 presidential election as well as President Biden’s fitness to be commander-in-chief.
The letter, which was first reported by Politico, bears the heading of a group calling itself “Flag Officers 4 America” and claims the United States “is in deep peril” and Americans are “in a fight for our survival as a Constitutional Republic like no other time since our founding in 1776.”
Among the letter’s 126 signatories are retired Rear Adm. John Poindexter, who spent a year as national security adviser under Ronald Reagan and was convicted of lying to Congress and obstructing the congressional investigation of the Iran-Contra affair (the conviction was later reversed), and retired Lt. Gen. William G. Boykin, who spent five years as deputy undersecretary of defense for intelligence under George W. Bush and is now executive vice president of the Family Research Council.

You'd think that someone who hid in the Capitol bathroom fearing for her life would have a little more sympathy for millions of Israelis hiding in bomb shelters fearing for their lives https://t.co/8XL7qRSmtA
