The Israeli Defense Forces (IDF) said Sunday that it would withdraw some troops from Gaza but that it expects the brutal assault on the enclave to continue through the entire year of 2024, The Times of Israel reported.
IDF spokesman Rear Adm. Daniel Hagari said the military was “adjusting” its “fighting methods to each area in Gaza” to prepare for a long conflict. “Tonight, 2024 will begin. The goals of the war require lengthy fighting, and we are prepared accordingly,” he said.
Hagari said the IDF was taking these measures “out of the understanding that we will be needed for additional missions and continued fighting during the entire coming year.” He said that some “of the reservists will return to their families and work this week.” The Times later reported that the IDF was pulling a total of five brigades out of Gaza.
Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu and other top Israeli officials have made clear they plan to continue the Gaza slaughter for the long term. Despite international calls for a ceasefire and accusations of genocide, Netanyahu said Sunday that his campaign will continue for “many more months.”
The US continues to provide unconditional and full-throated support for the massacre as the Biden administration bypassed Congress for the second time to get more arms into Israel’s hands.
In less than three months of relentless airstrikes and a ground campaign in Gaza, the Israeli operations have killed over 21,000 Palestinians, including over 8,000 children, and wounded over 50,000, according to Gaza’s Health Ministry.
The Health Ministry numbers are a low estimate as over 7,000 Palestinians are missing, including 4,900 women and children, and presumed to be dead or dying underneath the rubble. About 85% of Gaza’s population of 2.3 million people have been displaced, and about one-quarter are facing famine-like conditions.
As the Israeli operations continue, many more Palestinians are expected to die from starvation and disease caused by the siege. Public health experts estimate that if conditions don’t change, nearly half a million Palestinians will die within a year.
The destruction in Gaza is also unprecedented compared to any other modern conflict. According to an analysis by The Wall Street Journal, nearly 70% of the homes in Gaza and about half of all buildings in the Strip have been damaged or destroyed.
Glad to hear it. Maybe this scum will think twice before they break the next cease-fire. You don’t meet evil with kindness, you eradicate it with extreme prejudice.
Much of the world now thinks that eradication is exactly what Israel deserves and has earned. More of the world comes to that conclusion every day this genocide continues. And fewer of us, every day, will be unhappy if that’s what happens.
If Israel survives, it will be an international pariah for generations, and vile defenders of the massacre, such as you, Rick O’Shea, will have to hide your despicable views if you want to get or keep a job, or avoid being ostracized by decent people everywhere.
Nah. Israel has too many customers for their spy stuff, their killing stuff, just so much stuff.
Israel’s customers are unlikely, ultimately, to be a match for the waves of disgust, horror and anger Israel is generating among the people of the world. There’s a limit to the power and influence of the enablers and the power and influence of Enabler Number One is declining rather rapidly.
See below. Is it possible here? https://x.com/fluxus2/status/1741837325301075985?s=20
Possibly. Either way, the pro-Israelilers aren’t interested in debate. Which is why they’re doxxing and censoring critics of their favorite foreign country
In other words, just cover your sensory orifices when people say things that don’t fit in with your opinions, no matter how wrong.
Hopefully. Because right now those with righteous views must hide them to avoid being ostracized by the oligarchs who own our country
Yes, but the number of Americans who would rather be ostracized than be guilty of failing to speak and act against genocide is large and growing larger every day.
The ruling oligarchs don’t give squat for what you or I say.
The Anti-Sematic / Anti-Israel sentiment that you project has been around for a long time. It is not going away. The Arab nations tried in 1948, 1967 and 1973 to destroyed Israel by force. It did not happen.
You advocate for the destruction of Israel and the genocide of the Jewish people in that area that would follow, at the same time calling Israel campaign in Gaza a massacre. That is about as one sided as one could get. If you think yourself as a decent person, you not.
You should work on reading for comprehension Tim. Also on not spouting stupid bullshit that is helping to generate a surge of actual antisemitism larger and more dangerous than we’ve seen in a long time.
The forces arrayed against Israel’s genocide campaign today are, in every way, greater than its opponents in any of the previous iterations of the conflict. The world is horrified, disgusted and furious, Tim, the whole fucking world. Only the US government continues to support and cover for Israel’s unforgivable behavior, and even that probably can’t continue — the American public is every bit as horrified and disgusted as the rest of the world.
On the reading for meaning part: I don’t call for the destruction of Israel, not at all. But I certainly don’t think any nation (unlike peoples) has a “right to exist” that includes a right to prevent the self-determination of others. (See the US Declaration of Independence.) And if the justifiably-furious and revenge-seeking enemies Israel’s decades of evil behavior have created were to eradicate the Zionist state, I would no longer care very much at all. I would care very much if the Jewish people of the region were the targets of genocidal violence and I would support any reasonable action necessary to prevent that, just as I would support any reasonable action, including military action, necessary to halt Israel’s genocidal massacre of the Gazans.
I’ll leave it to others to decide which of us is a decent person, if either of us are.
You should learn to write better. You used the term “eradication of Israel” and you said that you would be happy if that happen. Now you are trying walk it back with a bunch of nonsense. Also, at least learn to write without using the “f” word.
Israel has faced military and economic threats in the past and survived. They will survive this attack by Hamas and Anti-Sematic crowd will come up with a new reason why Israel will not survive the next attack.
“You used the term ‘eradication of Israel’ and you said that you would be happy if that happen.”
You should learn to read better. Or you should just stop being a deliberately-lying sack of shit.
He’s getting paid to do this… ignore the bastard.
There was no “cease fire” because Israel at all times kept shooting into Gaza, killing and killing. That counts.
They did that for the same reasons they do genocide now — hate and the same drive to war crimes that Hitler felt.
Israel is so nice. “Israel at all times kept shooting into Gaza, killing and killing.” RFK Jr. was right. The Palestinians are arguably “the most pampered people on Earth.” Israel was pampering them to DEATH.
RFK was a big disappointment. But to be fair, I should not have had that much faith in a man who thinks polio is a hoax
I was with you and I was desperate for any possible alternative. He was like a mirage in the desert or like eating a steak in the Matrix.
I thought you might like to know about this arrangement. Any possibility some of those on this site could be getting paid? https://x.com/fluxus2/status/1741837325301075985?s=20
‘Cause its better to argue than to fight.However most anti Israel folks already have the answer, some are poisoned by ethnic hatred.
I still think we can vote our way out of this. . .
Oh, my bad, I thought you were referring to the federal government.
South Africa has invoked the Genocide Convention. This is a big deal.
“Full throated support for the massacre” from Genocide Joe. I can’t write “Genocide Joe” enough. He has certainly earned the moniker.
Perhaps set up in The Hague, so as to facilitate attendance at genocide and war crimes charges.
So it is clear now, the only end will be a region-wide war that finally destroys the Israeli state. It will go the way of Rhodesia, or the way of Nazi Germany, one or the other.
So you are rooting for a region wide war in the Middle East. I can think of a 150 reasons why that is not a good idea. And all those reasons contain either or both Uranium-235 or Plutonium-239.
Kind of like radiation therapy to remove a tumor that endangers the whole body.
… and Washington/Israel, having strenuously opposed and defeated any judicial satisfaction for the victims, will sanctimoniously absolve themselves of any responsability for it.
As long as they have nukes, they will never mind being backed into a corner. Maybe one day they could even use one.
And it’ll be on the US. When they realize that we are abandoning their hateful regime, it’ll be time for another “terrorist” attack on the US to get us uppity bastards back in line.
IDF expects the brutal assault on the enclave to continue through the entire year of 2024
enclave = a portion of territory within or surrounded by a larger territory whose inhabitants are culturally or ethnically distinct.
what is the enclave in this instance? a territory of Palestinians surrounding a smaller portion of territory containing Palestinians.
in other words, fish in a barrel.
rest of the world doesn’t even bat an eye.
happy new year, Palestinians.
A shooting gallery.
In other words,poor unfortunates being used and sacrificed by fanatics bent on destroying the nation of Israel.
The Zionazis are recreating their Holocaust with the target population being Palestinians, their children. It is not anti-semitic to call them out on this. Actually, there is no calling them out because they know.
Duh-did not Hamas invade Israel, and torture,rape, maim and massacre men,women, and children?
Did Israel not keep 2 million people in an open air prison for the past couple decades, killing a couple thousand every few years to “mow the lawn”?
No. Israel did not. Israel capture the Gaza strip after 1967 from Egypt. Egypt did not want it back and Israel did not want it either. Israel left Gaza in 2004. At that point in time Gaza could have built itself into something. Instead they choose to built weapons and forts, not for defensive purpose, but to attack Israel for one “glorious” day.
You’re right. It wasn’t decades. It was merely 17 years. And Israel controlled everything going in or out. The occupation continued, it was just done from the outside.
“did not Hamas invade Israel, and torture,rape, maim and massacre men,women, and children?”
The horrific war crimes of hamas do not justify the “massacre” of civilian, noncombatant “men, women, and children” of Gaza.
The crimes of Hamas do not justify Israel’s collective punishment siege of Gaza: its civilian-punishing blockade, its “indiscriminate” (Biden) bombing, which – predictably, given the 2000 pound bombs dropped in congested urban spaces – has killed and wounded enormous numbers of Palestinian innocents.
That is not a ‘nation defending itself.’ It’s ethnic cleansing by genocide.
Paragraph 2 makes no sense.
Fr once yr right
There were no rapes, and no babies burned as was propagated by the Israeli government. It is unfortunate that the Zionist government is addicted to creating facts on the ground that never existed. The IDF committed mass murder against its own citizens leaving the gathering in the desert with hell fire missiles. No remorse there, or killing three of their own in cold blood while they were waving white. Israel is a sick and dead space.
killing civilians alone is a war crime.
if yr claim is hamas killed no civilians oct 7, yr too fringe to bother with – worthless even to US/Israel forces smearing pro-Palestine voices
Normally the Israelis would call it collateral damage.
English really isn’t your language, is it ?
…dah…waah…waaah-naaaaaah…
…blowmeeklown?…daaaaaa…..
Sorry, I’m just not gay..but I don’t judge you..to each their own.
There are the war crimes committed on young Palestinian young men.
The IDF finds new ways to torture Palestinians on a daily basis.
“did not Hamas invade Israel, and torture,rape, maim and massacre men,women, and children?”
All that has been debunked, there is no evidence to prove it.
There is evidence that the Israelis killed their own people. The focus should be on this issue, an undisciplined IDF.
What has been debunked is that Hamas was responsible for all of the deaths. Stop trying to pretend Hamas didn’t kill any civilians.
When did I pretend Hamas killed no civilians? Of course they did, but they were collateral damage as killing civilians is collateral damage when the Israelis do it. In Israeli’s eyes all the victims are justified collateral damage including hospitals and schools.
“When did I pretend Hamas killed no civilians? Of course they did, but they were collateral damage”
Hamas did not deliberately kill any civilians on 10/7? Regret that’s yr view.
Fortunately, that view is nonexistent in the pro-Palestinian movement mainstream…
…demonstrations, organizations, press…
…and, a/ therefore, cannot be used to attack the movement, and, b/ therefore, can be safely ignored.
There is “no evidence” that Hamas deliberately killed civilians Oct. 7. There is no evidence, that leaves it open whether they did or did not.
There “is evidence” that the Israelis killed Israelis.
I think there is a misunderstanding, to put it mildly.
This is what I replied to.
“did not Hamas invade Israel, and torture,rape, maim and massacre men,women, and children?”
All that has been debunked, there is no evidence to prove it.
And I don’t care who calls killing civilians “collateral damage”. Hamas purposely killed civilians just like Israel is purposely killing civilians.
But it may not have been the plan.
I agree. They were unaware of the music festival going. But they still did what they did.
Not condoning it. But it is way less grotesque than the very intentionally planned genocidal actions of Israel on civilians including women, children, the disabled and elderly.
I agree with that too. It’s like second degree terrorism as compared to first degree terrorism. With the usual grotesque disproportionate amount of killing being done by the IDF terrorists.
“And I don’t care who calls killing civilians “collateral damage”. Hamas purposely killed civilians just like Israel is purposely killing civilians.”
Do I understand you correctly, are you saying I posted this? Did you take the the first sentence out of context? The second sentence is rom you, your opinion or not?
If you do, I do not recall it, it is not my opinion, so please provide a link When and Where did I post this????
I did post that civilians were killed, but it was collateral damage just as Israelis would call civilian casualties collateral damage.
If there is a misunderstanding, you owe me the curtesy to explain it. Thank you.
No, you didn’t understand me correctly. I italicized what you said. I was giving my opinion after that. Calling the killing of innocents “collateral damage” is just making the reckless killing of human beings sound acceptable. So, sure, there was collateral damage on both sides.
“Calling the killing of innocents “collateral damage” is just making the reckless killing of human beings sound acceptable. ”
I agree with you, that is why all conflicting parties do it if they can get away with it. Sorry, I misunderstood you.
Your responses to my posts did surprise me, I knew it is not what you stand for.
Weren’t the military posts embedded in the kibbutz?
Yes, the kibbutz are military posts along the fence.
Do you really misunderstand me or are you trolling?
I fully support the dispossessed victims of the Zionist’s deliberate bestialities including their massacre of the Palestinian people, starting with new born infants.
Zionists massacre civilians intentionally, and you know it.
I questioned you saying ALL killing by Hamas had been debunked. I took the word “all” literally.
I accept that, misunderstandings can happen. Thank you.
JFK one said that things don’t just happen, they are made to happen,
Manipulated.
Who left the gate unlocked?
Good morning, Lysistrata – below, my thinking, which hope you’ll think about.
a/ Deliberately killing civilians alone is a war crime, a “horrible” war crime – the main and most significant act of Hamas.
b/ The ‘historical context’ of this crime is important – explains though does not justify it.
c/ Besides killing civilians, combatants often commit atrocities like rape, + I see no reason to think SOME such acts have been committed in every other military conflict EXCEPT by Hamas.
d/ Clearly, the US and Israel have alleged Hamas atrocities as ‘atrocity propaganda’ – to upset citizens, dehumanize Palestinians and so justify its own deliberate war crimes of collective punishment of civilians – blockade and deliberate targeting.
e/ And clearly some of the allegations are false (40 babies) or exaggerated.
f/ BUT for me any awful details are a distractor: simply, Hamas’s killing of civilians – no matter any horrible specifics – does not justify US/Israel’s war crimes and crimes against humanity: the ethnic cleansing and genocide of Palestinian civilians.
I think you need to back up your assertions, I am being accused of having said things I never said. As I see it, you are misinterpreting what I posted or maybe there are reading comprehension issues or my English is poor.
I have said that Hamas is not a terrorist organization, they are resistant militants fighting brutal occupiers which is legal, you can call them partisans but not terrorists. I take it for granted that in case of conflicts civilians are being killed, they are considered collateral damage like unintentionally destroying schools or hospitals. What is it you don’t understand?
I have no issues with the points you make.
Please, what is YOUR point when you post:
“below, my thinking, which hope you’ll think about.” What do you mean by that?
You seem to think that being a “resistance” organization and being a “terrorist” organization are mutually exclusive. They’re not.
“Resistance” is a goal.
“Terrorism” is a tactic.
Both the IDF and Hamas engage in terrorism, as do most if not all armed forces.
No, they did not. The allegations have been debunked it is sadistic war propaganda, there is not a shred of evidence. The land really belongs to the Palestinians, Hamas did not invade Israel, the occupier invaded Palestine decades ago, HAMAS did perfectly legal self-defense.
Who cares about Hamas? Israel is killing children.
Can you name any war in history in which every side hasn’t killed children?
Intentionally?
Dropping bombs on other human beings means you are going to kill children too. By saying you aren’t intentionally killing children, even though you know damn well that you will, doesn’t make them any less dead.
The Three Hundred and Thirty Five Year War between Netherlands and the Isles of Scilly was only concluded in 1986.
The war started during the English Civil War when the Isle of Scilly sided with the Royalist side. The Dutch were allied with the Parliamentarian side. After the Royal Navy retreated to the Isle of Scilly where they defeated a Dutch fleet.
After England fell to the Parliamentarians, a dutch fleet went to the Isle of Scilly for reparations on 17 April 1651. They were refused, so Admiral Tromp declared war against the Isle. The rest of England was now held by the Dutch allies so the war was declared only against the Isle.
This state of war continued until a historian, Roy Duncan, found the a peace treaty had never been signed. The Dutch ambassador went to the Isle to sign a peace treaty on 17 April 1986

But it is “anti-semitic” according to the oligarchs who back actual Nazis in Ukraine
Israel is so nice. “Israeli Military Says Gaza Slaughter Will Continue for All of 2024”
A true misquote. Israel Military never used those exact words.
No they just dropped a whole bunch of bombs with wild abandon and killed 22,000 people, mostly women and children, in less than 3 months. Now imagine what they’ll do in an entire year. Or don’t because its coming now
They don’t have to, the reality speaks loud and clear.
And that will end anti-Semitism for ever.
The Final Solution. How disgustingly ironic And Orwellian https://uploads.disquscdn.com/images/9553c642a0f1ebc5163bfe151a16b744a80c4f5ccb1979eddb60a1a5b896a2bb.jpg
And all Hamas has to do is to accept unconditional surrender.
From within decades inside an open air prison? The Right to Return is a universal right, right? Self-determination is a UN sponsored right in its accord. You cant steal land from the people who became refugees from war. They Have The Right Of Return unless your in the chosen club>? 2.5 million people suffering in a closed in refugee camp is bs. They just want to go home. That is the symbol of this struggle. It’s a Friggin’ house key. When they were forced to leave from approaching battle they locked the doors to their homes and expected after the fighting to Return Home. They were refused! Villages were erased. Claims sullied and denied in courts. Now the most violent and rightest gov in centuries is in power headed by a guy who should be in prison who prayed for this attack to rally from attack on the self instead on the classic enemy. Stalin knew hitler was coming and bibbi knew hamas was and it was going to be just what they needed.
That is what Blinken says Hamas has to do.
https://www.linkedin.com/pulse/blinken-yet-another-complete-idiot-biden-frank-derose
Israel, really? Seriously? Come on! I/we are working our asses off, to try and get this peace thing in place, for Everyone’s safety and security… This is NOT a WAR, it is a GD bloodbath! Snap out of it already. I do not want to see anyone get their asses nuked. This is basic stuff.
Oh Donna, it is very much a war. The sad thing is that civilians children are got in a cross fire. Hamas does not care if they die. It is good PR for Hamas.
You don’t get it, a war is between two armed nations, not against an occupied unarmed population, mostly women and children.
Hamas is a civilian resistance movement with light weaponry, no tanks, no air defense or bombs or real missiles. They have some fire crackers and that is about it. They are malnourished and sick without medical care, fighting a nuclear power allied with Uncle Sam funding it.
The Israelis and the Americans have yet to say a word of regret for the thousands of infants, babies, and children they have killed brutally.
It is all the fault of Hamas, all they have to do is to surrender. And then what should they do, live in tents in the Sinai?
Donna, you sound great, keep it up.
I am going to smoke some weed and contemplate this entire thing…
“The world is a dangerous place to live — not because of the people who are evil but because of the people who don’t do anything about it.“
Albert Einstein (1879-1955)
When that evil is the US Federal Government, doing something about it is a really dangerous proposition
This is preposterous. Not only is Israel doing horrible things, but our political system is so corrupt that moral citizens are forced to pay for the murder of innocent persons and destruction 0f their property day after day.
Spot on!
The Federal Government will continue to support this genocide as long as it exists. Time to listen to Grover Norquist and let the shrinkage begin! https://www.brainyquote.com/quotes/grover_norquist_182534
The operative word here is Slaughter?!…..
The Genoside Joe and the Butcher Crime Minister hard at work….!
In other words – it is not going well for the Nazis and they need to continue indefinitely since they have already lost 500 soldiers to a concentration camp.
Let’s hope all the liberals who voted for Biden, just because they hated Trump, recognize the horrific consequences of their knee-jerk stupidity. These same liberals are now protesting in the streets, but it’s too late — their Genocide Joe isn’t listening to them. They’ve been suckered by Russiagate and all the rest of the Democratic fear propaganda, and now they’re finally seeing the blood on their own hands.
Trump is a big supporter of Israel. He moved the US Embassy to Jerusalem. Thus agreeing with Israel that Jerusalem in not an international city that UN wanted in 1947. And in March of 2019, Trump proclaimed that the US considers Golan Heights part of Israel.
True, Hillary wanted to do it earlier, but she was not in the right place at the right time.
I never hated Trump when I voted for Biden, I believed Biden had more common sense and he was more qualified and more predictable. I was wrong, Biden continues Trump’s policies, he is a mass-killer. The bipartisan neocons liked Biden better because he is more predictable. I will not vote for the lesser of two evils ever again, evil is evil. If the best the party establishments, the political Elite and the corporate elite, have to offer there is no point to bother to vote.
The war can end in 2024 if Hamas would surrender. But they won’t. They rather read about headlines about Israel “genocide” in Gaza. Hamas prefers PR over own people safety.
Did the 7,000 children killed by IDF have a chance to live if they surrendered?
A harsh message is being sent-this is tribal warfare-if you kill us, we will kill many more of you and drive you out. survival of the fittest.Terrible but true.
And once again, genocide and ethnic cleansing are justified.
sarcasm, to be clear.
Strange, that is exactly what Hamas is doing and you condemn it.
Begin with honest language, Hamas fighters are partisans, fighting a brutal occupier. They are not terrorists, the Israeli soldiers are undisciplined terrorists. The Israelis are NOT the victims, the unarmed Palestinians, mostly women and children, are the victims, get it straight.
I am curious, in your opinion do the Palestinians have any rights of a home, any human rights at all?
Killing their infants and children any age with bombs shredding their little bodies and amputating them and then deny medical care? Is that what civilized people do to other people’s children? Yes, hate will be the payback for a long time to come it is the seed for more Hamas and hate around the globe. What else do the Zionists expect?
Palestinians are human beings,as are Israelis. The Oct 7 massacre-with its rapes,mutilations,castrations,torture,burning alive, murders and kidnappings,was done by people twisted by hate-Israel is trying to elimanate the danger. It will be very very difficult.
There were no rapes, no burnings accept for IDF soldiers using hell fire weapons to destroy Israeli citizens leaving the gathering, and blowing up their cars. I do not condone Hamas killing civilians , but they have every right to execute IDF, and IAF terrorists.
The entire propaganda narrative given by Israel has been exposed as a big and utter lie regarding Oct. 7th. The Hanibal Directive is proof that Israel cares nothing about its citizens and will kill them without remorse.
You posted a list of allegations which all have been debunked because there is no evidence but there is concrete evidence that people told lies. Maybe you should be a little skeptical, there is plenty of propaganda out there.
There is plenty of evidence showing IDF soldiers and the Zionist Israeli government members to be brutal killers, war criminals.
You did not answer my question, do Palestinians have human rights? We do know the Israelis claim the right of self-defense, do Palestinians have that right too? Thousands of Palestinian infants and children have been brutally mutilated and murdered and their parents by people twisted to hate Palestinians. The Israelis robbed the Palestinians of their homeland, it is not the other way around, the Israelis are not the victims, the Palestinians are.
You can be sure that the massacre of the nation, close to 70% infants, women and children, will not make people hate the killers less, they will be hated more not less. COMMON SENSE tells you that.
Allegations? Have you not seen the hundreds of videos that Hamas posted and the ones caught by CCTV committing horrible crimes?
Need i share those gruesome videos with you here?
You guys are so dishonest it is sickening.
Don, I don’t need your BS. Hamas is not that stupid, they are winning the propaganda war based on facts, why spoil it? The losers tell lies, because they are losing, and lies are often even implausible.
I am curious too, in your opinion, do Ukrainians have any rights of a home, any human rights at all?
I mean, hm, you are a Putin cheerleader here.
How do you know this, Timmy ?
They never learn, life is a compromise, regardless of individuals or nations.
But the Zionists want it all, they will never offer a fair compromise.
Back on planet earth,it was Hamas that repated;y refused to negotiate,and opposed Oslo. Start doing some reading.
that is a lie..Hamas agreed in 2017 to respect any Palestinian state based on the 67 borders. Israel has never been serious about peace which is why it would only allow the US lackey government to partake in the “Dog and Pony” shows of the last thirty years. Any real broker would have held Israel to task..period
You should inform yourself, there are history lessons you can watch on You Tube, give it a try.
But that’s the same sh!t Putin is doing to Ukraine and you support it.
Hypocrisy is a b!tch.
The Ukrainians are being taken to the slaughter by Biden, the baby killer, not Putin, he offered the Ukrainians neutrality and prosperity, Biden did not allow them to take the Russians up on that, ask Prof. Jeffry Sachs and others.
Stop the war go yo jail.
Netanyahoo will keep the war going as long as Biden is President.
Scott Ritter is right. Israel is losing badly in Gaza. Having to pull five brigades out is proof that they’re taking way too many casualties and haven’t achieved much against Hamas. They are probably also intending to attack Hezbollah as a distraction from this failure – which will then turn into a much bigger failure. By end of 2024, Israel may no longer exist as a state.
Truly profound very much so…
Hamas fighters are full time professionals,drugged with hate and naivete,well armed with rockets and small arms,living in tunnels paid for by the UN,which is largely supported by the US. Israelis are largely citizen soldiers.Urban warfare is a bitch-but the kill ratio of Israelis to Hamas is still excellent.Still, this is a terrible mess. Israel will still be here for a long while.
Hamas has won Jake..literally they have exposed Israel as a terrorist state that thrives on killing innocent woman and children for sport. Israel has lost the hearts and minds of the world at large, and the youth in America. If Israel does not stop its terror war, it will be stopped…
Israel is gonna be around for a while. They do have the bomb, y’know.
Aimed at the US.
ALL of 2024???
Probably all of 2025 as well
Well, the election is in Nov. 2024, what comes after remains to be seen.
The sheer unbridled evil that consumes the Israeli government and military mindset is beyond the pale. This will not last another month. There will be a major war and Israel will get the brunt of the punishment.
Hamas has won the battle for the minds of the world exposing Israel has a bunch of fiends who thrive on mass murder, terror, and creating more anti-semitism.
Probably good for Gaza that they say their slaughter will fill 2024. It removes any optimistic or procrastination of the “this will;l be over soon” thinking & ignore the slaughter and maiming by the Zionists Genocidle open season on the innocent victims of another land theft. Many of whom are in Gaza because their homes were confiscated, bulldozed or stolen from them by some other slight of hand means & no other option but Gaza where they are prisoners & cannot get permission to leave, & starved, relentlessly starved & bombed!!!
The Palestinian people are a dispossessed nation fighting back, the USA governing elite is deviously dishonest, none of their presidents can really be trusted to be a fair moderator to negotiate anything. They spin a Fairy Tale narrative to look good for the next election. The demented Biden believes he can win the next election, he is so sure the big money will back him up like all the other times before.
But… but… they’re drawing them down! Right? Right?
Hamas Says IDF Slaughter Will Continue for All of 2024
Exactly, and that’s why Hamas is feeling the heat right now.
