Israel Kills Islamic Jihad Leader Behind Missile Attacks
PJ Media ^ | 17 May 2021 | Tyler O'Neil

Posted on 05/17/2021 2:28:18 PM PDT by Rummyfan

On Monday, the Israeli Defense Force (IDF) shared footage of the airstrike that took out one of Hamas’ key allies in Gaza, a leader of the Iran-backed terrorist group Islamic Jihad Movement in Palestine. Along with Hamas, Islamic Jihad forms part of the Alliance of Palestinian Forces, which rejects the Oslo Accords and aims to erase Israel and establish an Islamic Palestinian state “from the river to the sea.”

“This is the moment we targeted Islamic Jihad Northern Division Commander in Gaza, Hussam Abu Harbid,” IDF announced on Twitter. “As an Islamic Jihad commander for 15 years, he was behind rocket launches, shootings, & anti-tank missile attacks on Israel. He won’t be committing any more terrorist attacks.”

There was a cartoon showing the Israeli leader meeting with Arafat (I think), with John Kerry moderating. Arafat is holding up a sign that reads something like “Death to all Jews”. Kerry then looks to the Israeli and says: “Well, can you meet them halfway?”

The Republicans should give them IHOP gift certificates. In honor of Abu Harbid, who was turned into a pancake.

My first thought was which US official was referenced in the headline, but not yet.

Iran is the real political entity behind the missile attacks. Iran supplied the rockets and whatever necessary financing to Hamas to launch their “rocket barrage”. The real reason is that Iran needs to know the current capabilities, tactics and upgrades to Israel’s Iron Dome defenses. Unless Iran is able to counter effectively with medium range, stealthy,Chinese made ballistic missiles they have positioned in Syrian territory they control, Israel will have no serious concerns regarding counter strikes if they decide to definitively destroy Iranian nuclear facilities. The Iranians arrange these “rocket barrages” about every three years to collect intelligence. Hamas and the Palestinians are sacrificial pawns.

All that was left of the body was a red smear.

Good riddance, bad rubbish.

Does the FakeNews Media even mention that Hamas is a terrorist organization, or that Islamic Jihad is taking part in these rocket attacks?

<< Tlaib and Omar will have a moment of silence on the house floor >>

More than a few moments of shrill bitching would be my guess.

Israel should only quit when Hamas agrees to not only total ceasefire, but also surrender of its entire stocks of missiles . Which they won’t do. So pound all of Gaza into rubble and force all survivors to exit elsewhere . Then go in and bulldoze and grade the entire place . Turn it back into fields . Filled with Jewish farmer settlers . F the Philistines

Israel should talk all of Iran off the map as well. Iran is the primary source of arms and funding. Before any of you fellow Freeper’s jump in, I will state clearly that the people of Iran never anything about their leadership. They don’t deserve any consideration in this matter. They can go back to the stone age for all I care.
