no, the guy is being truthful.An incredibly weak showing by Antony Blinken on PBS Newshour tonight. When asked if the US could independently verify IDF claims of a command center under the hospital, Secretary Blinken stated that we could, based on "past Hamas practices and the IDF photos".
When pressed further by Amna Nawaz about independent verification, he stated something like "we expect further verification to be forthcoming as time passes."
This guys smells of Colin Powell circa 2003.
Exactly!! Even Iran does not want to be more involved!! Iran has basically told Hamas you are on your own!! Why? Because deep down Iran knows Israel is right!!Israel just isn't going to stop till they are salified that they have taken out HAMAS command and control and captured/killed most of the leadership that exists within HAMAS. Once they have good control over a sector with a well defended road leading to a hospital, then they will probably allow some humanitarian aid in - just to take pressure off their allies (they don't really care). All the Arab nations are backing off. They don't want to have to deal with the Palestinians either and many aren't keen on losing access to the local high tech resources that Israel has. So, allot of thunder with no lightning.
Even the Iranians are backing off. We've launched some deadly USAF strikes against Iranian backed Iraqi militia groups after our bases were attacked. Iran got the message, especially with two CSGs in the region. The US government has had a long history of backing Israel and is probably waiting an 'appropriate' amount of time before we push for a cease fire when Israel has achieved some of it's more important military goals. We are also in a difficult place given what we did after the 9/11 bombings - not exactly a shining moment for the US.
So that just that. People can keep protesting, and I hope they do, but I don't see anything changing over the next few weeks unless HAMAS just collapses unexpectedly under IDF pressure.
I am deeply saddened by the high civilian death toll and the lack of food, water and medical care. I'm just pointing out that Realpolitik is a bitch. That's all.
Oct 7th attack in one of the Kibbutz , they found a few burned beyond recognition bodies, i believe that's where they got the burned babies idea from...turns out it was actually Hamas terrorists blown to pieces when IDF forces shelled the houses(with Hamas and supposedly some hostages) with HE RoundsWhat's this "burned alive" story about? I must have missed it. Who's claiming what/when/where?

These are some of the ones i sawLinks?
Why are Israel and the U.S. members of it then? Why is the US a signatory to the unanimous UNSC resolution 465 deploring Israel for its territorial acquisitions since the 1967 war which "have no legal validity" and "constitute a serious obstruction to achieving a comprehensive, just and lasting peace in the Middle East."? This is pretty revealing and cuts through Israeli propaganda like butter.So....you really don`t get it do you?? The United Nations is just a paper tiger at best! I am sure you can do better than your attempt to copy and paste.
The tit for tat game has already been in motion long before Hamas came into being. You simply cherry picked a convenient starting point helpful to Israels narrative. When you kill, maim whole families, bulldoze their houses and property and bomb the hell out of them every so often, some pricks like Hamas will eventually come into being and bite back.Again. You just do not get it ! That is not even close to being the truth! Israel was not the aggressor here. Israel has a right to defend itself! Hamas should have never started this.
Why would you booby trap a vehicle full of expensive weapons...
Not taking sides here, but that would make perfect sense, actually. The weapons would be the bait.Why would you booby trap a vehicle full of expensive weapons...
They're lucky this guy didn't show up:Fucking commubists
You don't bait with stuff that's actually valuable, you bait with stuff the person you're trying to bait thinks is valuable. Why would you trade a dozen good weapons for one dead opponent?Not taking sides here, but that would make perfect sense, actually. The weapons would be the bait.
