Mark Levin: "Israel literally has the weapons to blow the Gaza Strip off the face of the Earth, the way Harry Truman did in Hiroshima and Nagasaki ... Should it be proportional, or should it act like the greatest generation in the United States"

MARK LEVIN (HOST): And for all the talk of Joe Biden and his Ivy League morons who surround him, they talk about proportionality. They need to understand something right now and right here.
Israel literally has the weapons to blow the Gaza Strip off the face of the Earth, the way Harry Truman did in Hiroshima and Nagasaki. They talk about the north, Hezbollah. Israel can't survive a two-front war, Hezbollah's 10 times stronger than Hamas. They're funded by Iran -- Oops, I'm not allowed to say that. There's no evidence. You know?
So, what if Israel is facing defeat? And what if Israel's 7,000,000 citizens are facing what the 1,500 citizens faced last week? Should it be proportional, or should it act like the greatest generation in the United States when we had real leaders, like Democrat Harry Truman? And I'm no fan of FDR, but he wanted to win those wars. Democrat FDR. Republican Dwight David Eisenhower.
Should they fight this war like they would, or were they war criminals? Was FDR a war criminal? Was Truman a war criminal? Was Eisenhower a war criminal? Were our generals war criminals? Proportionate when we dropped 2 atomic bombs? I'm not pushing this. I'm just explaining the illogic and the immorality of the critics.
