IT: Israeli forces freed two hostages and killed dozens of Gazans, and... Do you support age limits for elected officials?

Welcome to Monday, February 12th, neighbors...

Israeli forces raided Rafah, freeing two hostages and killing dozens of Gazans.

Israeli forces raided Rafah in southern Gaza to free two hostages held by Hamas. The military reported launching a "wave of attacks" to create cover for the operation, which killed dozens of Palestinians.

Netanyahu has ignored warnings from Israel's allies, including the U.S. and UK, to halt plans to send troops into Rafah. 

How do you feel about U.S. response so far?

Age limits for elected officials?

Special Counsel Robert Hur's report of President Joe Biden's handling of classified documents found in his home brought his age back into the spotlight after Hur wrote that a jury would see the president as a "well-meaning, elderly man with a poor memory" if he faced criminal charges.

This brought back the question: Should there be age limits in politics?

Do you support age limits for elected officials?
