Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu has said Israel’s brutal campaign in Gaza could continue into 2025, Israeli TV reported.
The report from Israel’s Channel 12 said Netanyahu made the comments during a meeting with local council chiefs from kibbutzim and other communities near the Gaza border.
Netanyahu told them that Israel’s current assessment is that operations in Gaza will continue into next year. Before the New Year, an Israeli military spokesman said Israeli forces would be fighting in Gaza for the entire year of 2024.
The Israeli slaughter in Gaza has already killed over 24,000 Palestinians, and more than 60,000 have been wounded in just over three months. Many more are expected to die of starvation and disease caused by the brutal siege unless there is an immediate ceasefire and a major humanitarian relief effort.
Martin Griffiths, the UN’s relief chief, told CNN this week that the “great majority” of the 400,000 Palestinians in Gaza who the UN determined are at risk of starving are “actually in famine, not just at risk of famine.”
Netanyahu has the incentive to continue the onslaught in Gaza for as long as possible, as his political career is in peril. Polling has shown the majority of Israelis want him to step down after the war. Some US officials are worried that Netanyahu might see provoking a major war in Lebanon as key to his political survival.
Israel cant afford war for 3 more months let alone 1 year. Despite replenishments from Germany,America,and UK and also supplies of manpower, Israel cant withstand the resilience and resistance mounted by Lebanon Hamas and Syria.
Israel is taking more losses on the ground than the media knows.
Painful,but there is no choice for them.
BDS needs to be a worldwide focus to stop both Israeli and US terror operations in Gaza and abroad. Period
Hopeful the UN will submit a General Assembly BDS resolution.
BDS China.
“BDS China”?
Americans complicit in genocide demanding human rights in other countries? BWAAAAA-HAAAAAAAAAAH!
Abie Baby-so the Uyghurs in concentration camps don’t count,so the victims of forced organ harvest don’t count,so the Tibetan women with their fetus forcibly pulled out don’t count to you a bit. A victim is a victim.Oh-and the millions slaughtered in the great cultural revolution-wait,it never happened.
provide any legitimate proof that Uyghurs are in concentration camps. You will obfuscate at every turn to defend the premeditated Genocide being perpetrated by your beloved Israel. China is not mass murdering or treating anyone like the Zionists treat the Palestinians..period.
“so the Uyghurs in concentration camps don’t count,so-”
nuh nuh nuh, genocide jake – you “don’t count”:
as an open genocide cheerleader, openly callous in the face of appalling suffering, you have zero moral credibility
i mean seriously – moral words coming out of your dirtbag piehole? a repulsive joke.
Jake, please get a grip, and realize that no actual civilized country that Israel “claims” to be is acting like it. China is an utter saint compared to the barbaric racists in Israel chanting for more and more mass murder. Your brethren are as bad as what existed in Germany in WW2…
Will not happen. Nothing will happen. Biden, or whoever is the next deadhead in the White House will sanction the whole world.
Let BDS attack China for its.The monkey knows whose back to jump on.Fork BDS. occupation of Tibet.There will be no BDS movement if China grabs Taiwan
People and governments have been BDSing China on and off, for various reasons, since 1949.
Meanwhile,China sells massive amounts of goods to the US,which is great for consumers, makes their MIC wealthy,and deprives the working poor in the US of industrial jobs.
Tariff them.
now you are talking!
For once we agree on something
Free trade with everybody.
Boooo!
Yes, China sells massive amounts of goods to the US, which is great for consumers.
Many of whom piss and moan that the US (which has a larger manufacturing sector now than at any prior point in its history, and real median wages half again what they were in 1991, and rock bottom low unemployment) should “tariff” China to benefit politically connected Big Business fat cats at the expense of themselves.
Go into an electronics store,a modestly priced clothing store- a shoe store if you can find one-where are these products from? The US worker cannot compete,so he is underemployed,unemployed,or sells drugs.
Trumps mistake was to target tariffs to individual foreign competitors to win disparate concessions..
No, the tariffs should be general without any consideration if they’re friend of foe.
The only consideration should be is if it’s good for the workers and the counrty as a whole..
Well, make up your mind. Are you in favor of tariffs, or are you in favor of the good of the workers and the country as a whole? The two are incompatible opposites.
US history refutes you.
Better do your homework.
I’ve been doing my homework for about 30 years. I got started in earnest when I submitted an essay to a magazine advocating for a Pat-Buchanan-type trade position on China and the editor patiently assigned me homework to “improve” the article, knowing that if I dug into the real reasons and real effects of tariffs, I’d stop being a protectionist.
Kindly send me a link if it’s still available.
Thank you.
It never got published, because after about three months of going through the editor’s (leading) questions, I changed my mind and withdrew it. The only article of mine that magazine published was a book review.
Also, at the time, that magazine didn’t have a full-content web site. This was the 1990s. It basically had a single web page with print subscription information.
Interestingly, the editor in question now works with a prominent columnist whose favorite topic lately is the Chinese “threat.”
Lets BDS China??? what?? are they engaged in a premeditated campaign of land theft, terrorism and mass murder?? NO, BDS is a human rights and peaceful resistance movement that “needs” to be enforced by all countries adhering to international humanitarian law against Israel since Israel is out of control and can no longer be trusted as a reasonable moral country.
All states are constantly engaged in campaigns of terrorism and mass murder. Land theft is more of an opportunistic add-on, but more than half a century of occupying Tibet ticks that box off too, even if one agrees with the PRC and disagrees with the Permanent Court of Arbitration’s ruling that the PRC’s “nine-dash line” claims are unlawful.

Wow. I read the quotes and as soon as I got to the nasty shit, I couldn’t go any further. The quotes alone made my blood boil.
Interview with former IDF soldier, as well as the son of a former Israeli general by Chris Hedges, posted in Scheerpost: https://scheerpost.com/2024/01/15/the-idfs-war-crimes-are-a-perfect-reflection-of-israeli-society/ From a young age, Israelis are programmed to do bad stuff, all based on a myth, a deadly myth.
Go count the number of Israelis killed by Arab terror since 1900-oh but they don’t count.
I have nothing to say that doesn’t include a lot of swear words and angry ranting.
Anyone who wants a Two State Solution should come live next to these guys.
Edit: By “these guys” obviously I meant the genocidal zionist barbarians
There was never any intention of a two state solution , that was just a front to allow the Zionist to build up it`s forces .
And 200 nukes. Kennedy was very against Israel getting the bomb. For two reasons. Number one, he was after nuclear disarmament. Number two, he felt that were Israel to get the bomb, Israel would be more billigerent. Several terse letters were exchanged between Kennedy and Ben-Gurion over the matter. I would say that the Zionists of the time were quite happen whey Kennedy was eliminated. This article from Mintpress.com is helpful to understand the possible implications: https://www.mintpressnews.com/from-dallas-to-gaza-jfk-assassination-good-for-israel/286457/
Look who raised JFK. Look at the historyo f his father. JFK was quite reluctant to arm Israel,despite massive soviet arms shipment so to her sworn enemies.
This.

I am at a loss for meaningful words…
“These guys” have never been offered a fair deal. They have been cheated and lied to for half a century.
Now you say it is impossible to deal with them.
It is impossible to deal with Israel. Palestinians can’t do it, and now we see Genocide Joe can’t do it either.
But if someone “alongside them” treated them like we treat the Palestinians in Jordan, they might well act like the Palestinians in Jordan.
Yeah and the Zionists have bought tech to influence people with their PROPAGANDA , simple don`t believe anything coming from the Zionists , they are all war criminals and should be arrested on sight out side Palestine .
Meanwhile sleepy Joe keeps snoozing (and sending weapons their way).
Haven’t you been reading the establishment media? Biden and Bibi haven’t been talking for two whole weeks. Biden is soooooooo mad at Bibi. OMG oneoneoneeleveln!!!!!!!!!
Now that Biden is soooooooo mad about Israel not taking his advice that totally absolves him from any moral consequences of continued support. Don’t you understand how neocon fascist logic works. What’s wrong with you?
What’s the sarcasm tag again?
You may be on to something, right there.
It’s all for the dimwitted “progressives” and “liberals” in the USA who are starting to have doubts about voting for Biden. You know, the NPR types.
And 2026, as long as it keeps him out of prison.
The Israeli slaughter in Gaza has already killed over 24,000 Palestinians, and more than 60,000 have been wounded in just over three months.
The math is scary if these numbers continue at the same pace. And those are low ball numbers. Add the 400,000 already “actually in famine” and tell me how this isn’t a genocide in the making.
Wait until the rubble is raised. The stench of the dead is probably permeated in them. I will be ghastly to recover the bodies.
The entire world should be ashamed about what the Zionists are doing in Gaza and not do anything about it.
The Biden administration should be doubly ashamed to be associated with the genocide of thousands of civilian human beings and to destroy American reputation around the world.
Netanyahu is begging any country to confront them directly to save his own skin.
Release all the hostages,stop firing missiles,and Israel will stop bombing.
Release the hostages in a withering hail of gunfire and bombs…
What could possibly go wrong?
That means trusting people who have broken every promise ever made, and who kill routinely, constantly, over decades. Sure, they’d stop now, trust ’em!
Why don’t the Israelis release the multitude of hostages they hold?
OMG the son of bitch is killing them and the rest of us are not even looking the other way.
what
what
Such an exemplar. If he has to murder 50,000 children in order to stay in power, then it’s worth it, right? After all, they’re just animals who will breed and make replacements.
Here’s looking at you, Joe.
With any luck 2025 will see Trump back in the White House (or at least president, he might have to run the government from prison). Not because he is better than Biden, but because he has a better shot of derailing the entire federal establishment, which seems to be the only way any of this BS ends.
He lies. He won’t “continue” seeking to defeat Hamas.
He will “complete” the ethnic cleansing, and then re-colonize the vacated land. How long that will take to complete is the issue, not how long he will try to “defeat Hamas.”
