“The Rafah Crossing was and will remain a purely Egyptian-Palestinian crossing,” Hamdan says.
Israel and ham ass are agreed about a cease fire: They’ll agree if the other side accepts defeat.
Let the fighting continue!
There are official and unofficial (terror tunnels) crossings above and below ground between Rafah and Egypt. The Hamas unofficial Rafah terror tunnels were used by the Hamas billionaires in Qatar to smuggle goods and gather even more $$billions$$. In 2014 Egypt announced it was destroying much of the unofficial underground Rafah tunnels because Hamas was causing mayhem in Northern Egypt (Sinai). With Israel controlling the Gaza side of Rafah, and Egypt continuing to control their end, the Hamas billionaires will no doubt complain about it.
For decades the Hamas billionaires have hoarded their $$$ and refused to help with supplies for ‘their people.’ Before Oct 7, Israel was making daily deliveries of MASSIVE amounts of food, water**, and building supplies to Gaza. The islamofascistnazis used the supplies to create their underground terror operation in Gaza. Hamas even dug up underground water pipes to create rockets in order to kill more Jews.
When President Trump returns to the Oval Office, he should immediately move to relocate the United Nations to Gaza. No more limousines, escorts, fine dining, etc. Just place a few large tents on the Gaza coast, and see just who really wants unity.
**water - Israel has mastered and expanded desalination to the extent that they sell clean water to any neighbor country that wants clean water.
Good start!
“...cease-fire negotiations with Hamas remain on a knife’s edge.”
Israel: “No deal. We’ll accept your surrender and the release of all the hostages.”
Hamas: “Heartless war-monger!”
American Useful Idiots: “Stop the genocide! Free, Free, Palestine! In our lifetimes! From the river to the sea, Palestine shall be free!”
“left a glimmer of hope alive — but only barely — for an accord that could bring at least a pause in the seven-month-old war that has devastated the Gaza Strip.”
Bullcrap. That’s just a scam. If they can get a “pause” it will be near impossible to start up again. And in the meantime the vermin will resupply, rest, and improve positions.
Stay after them till they surrender or die.
Kill Hamas.
They should have done this years ago. A permanent garrison.
When Elisha became sick with the illness of which he was to die, Joash the king of Israel came down to him and wept over him and said, “My father, my father, the chariots of Israel and its horsemen!” Elisha said to him, “Take a bow and arrows.” So he took a bow and arrows. Then he said to the king of Israel, “Put your hand on the bow.” And he put his hand on it, then Elisha laid his hands on the king’s hands. He said, “Open the window toward the east,” and he opened it. Then Elisha said, “Shoot!” And he shot. And he said, “The Lord’s arrow of victory, even the arrow of victory over Aram; for you will defeat the Arameans at Aphek until you have destroyed them.” Then he said, “Take the arrows,” and he took them. And he said to the king of Israel, “Strike the ground,” and he struck it three times and stopped. So the man of God was angry with him and said, “You should have struck five or six times, then you would have struck Aram until you would have destroyed it. But now you shall strike Aram only three times.” 2 Kings 13:14-19
When you have to go to war, you must fight to win completely.
the Egyptians refused to allow their Gaza countrymen to return to Cairo, by blocking the “border” except
1. for identified terrorist movements and
2. for smuggling of guns rockets and ammo into Gaza district
so it makes perfect sense for Israel to retake control there, indeed there really isn’t any workable alternative even if we were to seek one
Good for BiBi.
find tunnels.
flood tunnels.
kill hamas.
then negotiating may get easier
Thanks be to God ... the God is ISRAEL!!!
Egypt has deployed on the other side of the border effectively sealing it off
Prayers up for Israel.
If the Hamas side offered hostages that may or may not all be alive, how did they handle the dead ones? Several days or weeks or months dead. Gruesome.
Unconditional surrender. Then we will have a cease fire.
It was good enough for the United States it is good enough for Israel.
Hamas terrorist to leader: شكراً Tanks.
Leader: أهلا وسهلا You’re welcome.
