Israeli army ready for ground offensive against Hamas, IDF chief declares
All Israel ^ | 10/24/23 | All Israel Staff

Posted on 10/25/2023 4:47:00 PM PDT by Roman_War_Criminal

Hamas terrorists “are already beginning to regret” starting the war against Israel as the Israel Defense Forces are preparing for a ground offensive in Gaza, the Israeli military's Chief of Staff Herzi Halevi said in a special press briefing on Tuesday afternoon.

Halevi touched on several aspects of "Operation Iron Swords" in his comments and thanked Israeli citizens and soldiers for their heroic efforts in repelling the Hamas invasion on Oct. 7.

“The containment battles of citizens, members of the security forces, soldiers and commanders on October 7th deserve a lot of appreciation. Many hundreds of terrorists were killed thanks to the bravery of the fighters.”

Halevi also said he had toured the Gaza border area and visited IDF troops who are waiting for the order to begin the ground invasion, and emphasized that the soldiers are ready.

A ground invasion is thought to be imminent for the IDF to destroy the Hamas terror organization in the Gaza Strip.

No one doubts that. OK? We get it. Go when you think is right, or don’t depending on military reasons.

They are telegraphing their moves for some reason. I can think of positive and negative reasons why.

Iran better get ready for the mother of all battles. Iran doesn’t have any friends in the neighborhood.

Look at a recent photo of Halevi. He has a guilty conscience shown on his face.

Probably. It didn’t make a lick of sense.

From now on each and every death or injury to someone after the Israelis start their attack mission will be on TV like the napalm attacks in Vietnam.

A self-sabotage explosives leveling of a building by Hamas made to appear to be by the Israelis will be coordinated with Dems in Congress and on TV to use as propaganda.

But Hamas gouged out eyes, killed family members and forced loved ones to watch and took helpless, terrified people hostage.
Israel was not on the way to take over other people’s land like the Chinese do. The people were simply at home on their Sabbath.

Justification.

Hamas has new funded in part by the Israeli government. They were hoping Hamas would counter the PLO.

Embarrasing!
