Israel is at War - General discussion (pt3)
Bkk Brian replied to Social Media's topic in The War in Israel
I edited already and stated the mistake, so to clarify what should have been, can you show me where (my highlights) "The reason the US is reluctant to stop weapons transfer to Israel is the threat of Hezbollah, not support for Israel's bombing of Palestinians." -

Last month, he issued a new protocol, demanding those countries that receive US arms affirm in writing that they abide by international law, including on humanitarian aid. If the US doesn’t certify that declaration, all arms sales stop immediately. In Israel’s case, the deadline for certification is Sunday. US official says Israel sent assurance it is using arms lawfully, days before deadline https://www.timesofisrael.com/biden-official-says-israel-sent-assurance-it-is-using-arms-per-international-law/ -

There's plenty of hope, just because the UN resolution was vetoed does not mean the deal being talked about now in Qatar will not happen. -

ooops aweful news, vetoed by Russia and China. U.S. Gaza ceasefire resolution vetoed by China, Russia at UN Security Council Russia and China on Friday vetoed a U.S. draft UN Security Council resolution which called for an "immediate and sustained ceasefire" in Gaza along with "the release of all remaining hostages" held by Hamas. Why it matters: This was the fourth time since the war began in October that the Security Council failed to agree on a resolution calling for a ceasefire. This time, the dispute was over the U.S. insistence on linking the ceasefire call to a hostage deal and condemnation of Hamas, rather than the unconditional ceasefire resolution demanded by Russia and China. https://www.axios.com/2024/03/22/us-ceasefire-resolution-veto-un-security-council Another huge let down for the hostages and families along with the ceasefire of course -

US to bring Security Council motion for Gaza ceasefire and hostage deal to vote Friday Reuters says draft calls for ‘immediate and sustained ceasefire’ lasting six weeks linked to captives’ release; EU issues similar call for pause to fighting, warns against Rafah op The draft resolution, seen by Reuters, says an “immediate and sustained ceasefire” lasting roughly six weeks would protect civilians and allow for the delivery of humanitarian assistance. The text backs talks brokered by the U.S., Egypt and Qatar over a ceasefire and emphasizes support for using the period of a truce to intensify efforts in pursuit of “lasting peace.” Since blocking an Algerian draft resolution calling for an “immediate humanitarian ceasefire” in Gaza at the end of February, US officials have been negotiating an alternative text focusing on support for diplomatic efforts on the ground for a six-week truce in exchange for the release of hostages. https://www.timesofisrael.com/us-to-bring-security-council-motion-for-gaza-truce-and-hostage-deal-to-a-vote-friday/ -

Fantastic news for Israel and the operation at Shifa IDF: ‘Very significant’ Hamas commanders among 650 nabbed at Gaza’s Shifa hospital Troops have captured some 650 terror suspects, including several “very significant” senior Hamas and Palestinian Islamic Jihad commanders, during an ongoing operation at Gaza City’s Shifa Hospital, the Israel Defense Forces and Shin Bet security agency said Thursday, as talks continued in Qatar to secure an extended truce and hostage deal. https://www.timesofisrael.com/idf-650-terrorists-including-hamas-officers-detained-in-shifa-hospital-raid-so-far -

Can you tell me where I said you were lying? I asked who said that, it was not Blinken. You felt it was a very important statement as you put it as the title, who said this, simple question for you. No I have no intention of watching the video, I have all I need from the US gov press release on it. -

Don’t blame Israel for the surge in antisemitism
Bkk Brian replied to Social Media's topic in World News
Not sure about that. Horror as London house is torched in 'anti-Semitic hate crime': Four people are hurt and man in his 60s 'who was making threatening comments' is arrested for 'arson' A fire which gutted a house in east London where four people were hurt is being investigated as a possible 'antisemitic hate crime', police have said. Police have arrested a man in his 60s on suspicion of starting the fire and for allegedly shouting 'threatening comments some of which were allegedly antisemitic.' It is believed the fire on Newick Road, Hackney, was started deliberately at around lunchtime yesterday. https://www.dailymail.co.uk/news/article-13224029/house-flames-suspected-hate-crime-arson-east-London-anti-Semitism-probe.html -

The jackpot at Shifa that keeps giving, expected to last a few more days. IDF says 650 terror operatives captured at Shifa, including Hamas and Islamic Jihad commanders The IDF and Shin Bet security agency say troops have captured some 650 terror operatives during the ongoing operation at Gaza City’s Shifa Hospital, including several senior Hamas and Palestinian Islamic Jihad commanders. The Islamic Jihad operatives holed up at the medical center surrendered to troops, the IDF says. Among them were Hussam Salameh, the commander of PIJ’s observation and intelligence unit in Gaza City, and his brother, Wissam Salameh, head of the terror group’s propaganda unit in Gaza City, according to the IDF. https://www.timesofisrael.com/liveblog_entry/idf-says-600-terror-operatives-captured-at-shifa-including-hamas-and-islamic-jihad-commanders/ @IDF Spokesperson Rear Adm. Daniel Hagari talks about the ongoing operation at Shifa Hospital and the terrorist activity discovered in the building. -

You don't really believe Hamas are going to walk out with their hands up do you? No. You said that not me. Here is what I said: "Given Hamas record there is a massive reason to be skeptical" Noted you managed to get in a vile dig calling the Israelis sub human. -

The ongoing deal referred to in my post has nothing to do with Rafah. Whether Rafah goes ahead also depends on how the talks go in Washington as the US is going to be offering some more targeted options to get Hamas in Rafah rather than full invasion. US to focus on Rafah in upcoming Israel talks The U.S. is set to present Israel with alternative options for targeting Hamas that does not involve a risky incursion into Rafah, which would come with a high humanitarian cost. American officials that spoke to The Times of Israel said that Washington will propose securing the Egypt-Gaza border as an alternative to the ground campaign. Under the proposal, Israel would focus on preventing weapons that could rearm Hamas militants from being smuggled over the border. “This isn’t just us saying, ‘No you can’t do it.’ We’re saying that we’re willing to work with you on viable alternatives that still help you achieve your objectives,” one official said. https://www.semafor.com/article/03/20/2024/us-to-focus-on-rafah-in-upcoming-israel-talks Blinken says negotiations to a deal are 'getting closer' amid looming Rafah operation 'We can think of Rafah in terms of whether and how we go... Maybe we can do limited operations that go hand-in-hand with what the U.S wants from us,' says Lt. Col. (Res.) Doron Avital
