Israel is at War - General discussion (pt3)


Recommended Posts

The ceasefire/hostage talks getting intense. I personally don't believe it will happen but I truly hope I am wrong. Meanwhile the IDF continues to target the commanders of the Oct 7th atrocities

 

October 7-Linked Palestinian Islamic Jihad Commander Killed in Rafah

An Israeli airstrike on Rafah on May 4 killed a senior commander of the Palestinian Islamic Jihad (PIJ), the Israeli military reported. Warplanes bombed an apartment used by Aiman Zaarab, a PIJ veteran based in the southern Gazan city, and two other members of the terrorist group. Zaarab’s killing came two days after a senior PIJ terrorist in the West Bank city of Tulkarm, Ahmed Abu al-Foul, was killed in an exchange of gunfire with Palestinian Authority (PA) security forces.

Now a barrage of rockets and mortar shells on KEREM SHALOM from Rafah. 10 people wounded, one in grave condition. Remember Kerem shalom? From which most humanitarian aid to Gaza enters? Will we hear condemnations from the Intl community on this or will we only hear when/if it affects the flow of humanitarian aid?

ceasfire deal ?

 

 

 

There will not be a ceasefire as Netanyahu has been saying for months that he was going into Rafah no matter what.

The only way to stop the Palestinian genocide is to cease international support to Israel.

There will not be a ceasefire 

 

Rubbish you quickly and deliberately forget this, from a few days ago:

 

US Secretary of State Blinken urged Hamas to quickly reach a decision on Israel's "extraordinarily generous” conditions for a temporary cease-fire in Gaza. "The only thing that’s standing between the people of Gaza and a cease-fire is Hamas,” 

 

Hamas refused.

Israel rejects ceasefire proposal and presses ahead with 'targeted strikes' on Rafah

Oh gawd, you are behind the times again. The ceasefire that Hamas accepted was a new one that was drawn up by Qatar and Egypt only. Of course Israel rejected it, it was a full surrender and still no hostages back for months!

Hardly a full surrender. It left Hamas in control of Gaza. Hamas must be destroyed. Palestinians must be protected.

Yea what I meant was a full surrender by IDF was required, complete withdrawal from Gaza while Hamas retains full control, just waiting to perform another Oct 7th

   Interesting that you call the elimination of Hamas as "Palestinian genocide" .

Hamas terrorists need to be bought to justice and the hostages need to be released , achieving that aim isn't genocide

   A full surrender from Israel was the proposal  , not a surrender from Hamas

Israeli airstrikes on Rafah begin despite mounting ceasefire pressure
Palestinians in Gaza thrown into confusion by Hamas’s acceptance of a deal, followed by Israel’s sceptical response and bomb attacks

[...]
Hamas officials were quoted as saying the plan they had accepted involved a ceasefire, reconstruction of Gaza, return of displaced people to their homes and a prisoner swap deal, and that the deal would involve three phases, each of 42 days.
[...]
A Saudi foreign ministry statement warned of the “dangers of the Israeli occupation forces targeting the city of Rafah as part of its systematic bloody campaign to storm all areas of the Gaza Strip and displace its residents towards the unknown”.

Most of the Israeli public (82%) supports a military operation in the area of Rafah in the southern Gaza Strip,

Absolutely. But it is still notable that even in Israel, which is not exactly a Pro-Palestinian enclave, people are beginning to say enough is enough.

Yes hundreds, its a democracy

Hundreds out of millions, and how many of those protesting have a relative being held hostage by Palestine?

Probably got a gig ad an expert on CNN. 

 

And not an "American diplomat"

As time goes on more and more people are saying that.

They know very well there are severe consequences of their massacre, very sever for the rest of their lives.

Of course they do, Genocide is hard to hide if there is a ceasefire. 

 

   It was a dirty dishonest ploy by Hamas , trying to keep the Palestinian civilians in Rafah by telling them there has been a ceasefire and cause the civilian casualties to mount up . 

   Hamas also waited until Israel had began their attack on Rafah before mentioning  a ceasefire , a ceasefire which was just a complete Israel surrender and would never be accepted .

   Shocking how gullible some people are

Yes, absolutely. 

Unfortunately after Oslo there won't be any ceasefires: every family on both sides lost their members >>> it's hard to forgive an forget, isn't? 

I've heard horrible stories from both sides, from those members.
