Hamas leader Sinwar said to narrowly evade capture by IDF two separate times

If they capture/kill leadership then they lose their rational for why their genocide is ok…

Same reason Netanyahu was letting suitcases of cash into Gaza for years.

For a far right government that doesn’t care about their own citizens, Hamas is a good thing. And it’s really hard to believe their support was tanking and they might lose power, then coincidentally all this shit popped off.

Either that, or the IDF is completely and totally incompetent

Isn’t it better for the IDF/Israel if they don’t catch him since hunting him down is just about the only justifiable part of this whole war? If they catch him the pressure to stop the war will just increase, but if he’s still out there they can use that as a reason to continue their genocide.

How short would the war in Afganistan be if the US didn’t bomb everything to shit in the opening months and instead gathered Intel and sent in a special forces unit to take Bin Laden down? But if they did that then how would the Military Industrial Complex get their billions.

I know I’m being a bit of a conspiracy nut now but it’s just too convenient, isn’t it?

Capturing an/or killing him will be seen as a conclusion to the matter.

“The emphasis is on damage and not on accuracy,” Israel Defense Forces official Daniel Hagari said, according to Haaretz.

Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu said on Sunday that Palestinian civilians being killed en masse are simply “collateral damage” in his military’s destruction of Gaza.

“Gaza will eventually turn into a city of tents. There will be no buildings. The ground maneuver will surprise Hamas,” the official said in a stark warning to the terrorist group behind the weekend assault that killed more than 1,200 Israelis.

Aren’t they negoting with Hamas? They probably know where they are…

I was going to add a story, but frankly I was too tired for the hassel I get. But, the israeli newspapers last night reported that Hamas had demanded a ceasefire before any hostage release. This, of course, puts any ceasefire in doubt. But, we’ll have to see.
