Hamas’s fighters, the Al-Qassam Brigades, were doing fine, the upbeat message said. The militants were ready for Israel’s expected assault on Rafah, a city on Gaza’s southern edge. High civilian casualties would add to the worldwide pressure on Israel to stop the war, Sinwar’s message said, according to people informed about the meeting.
Hamas’s military wing in Gaza is waging an unequal fight with the strongest military in the Middle East—a war brought on by the U.S.-designated terrorist group’s Oct. 7 attack on Israel. But Sinwar, the mastermind of that attack and one of Israel’s prime targets, is playing a different game. His goal is for Hamas to emerge from the rubble of Gaza after the war, declare a historic victory by outlasting Israel’s firepower, and claim the leadership of the Palestinian national cause.

I can’t wait for the IDF to turn this monster into a greasy spot on the concrete
Him and his entire family.

North Vietnam lost most of the battles in the war too, including the biggest one, Khe Sanh.
For some reason, they thought they would win the war too.
The world will give the billions of dollars when it’s over ,D’oh
In similar fashion, Hamas could win this war too, if Biden gets his way.
Well perhaps they are inspired by the terror summit they wer part of hosted by a major world power that is their ally...

You win wars not by killing everyone and destroying everything, you win by breaking their will to fight.
It is not the leadership’s will, but the people who actually fight and die. In warfare “morale” is something that a military leader has to be aware of, not just the enemies but of their own troops (or civilians supporting the military).
Israel has to find a way to destroy the morale of Palestinians are face years of war.

It’s the Niki Haley battle plan
Israel may be winning on the ground, but when it comes to the war of public opinion within the world media, and academia, Hamas has won an astounding moral victory in all of this, and have succeeded in painting any action they undertake against Israel as justified blows against an illegitimate apartheid state, and likewise, any sort of retaliation undertaken by the so-called “Zionist Occupational Government” as unspeakable war-crimes and acts of “Genocide”.
And this narrative has not only been accepted without criticism, it cannot even be QUESTIONED.
Read Chronicles; the history of Israel is a history of war.
Israel is not going anywhere. Win or lose, Israel is not going anywhere.
Hamas:
(to the tune of I’ve Got My Love To Keep Me Warm)
My guys are all losing
our Arab allies snoozing
the war is just
going all wrong
I don’t care if it’s going all wrong.
I’ve got my Dems to keep me strong.
They may “win” the war in a manner of speaking by international pressure to bring Israel to the negotiating table. At least that appears to be their plan.
Well, with ‘dnc’ help..........
Women and children can live in Gaza. Put all the men in Bukele's style prison.
The DNC, The UN and Ol’ Joe will give them billions for ‘reparations”.
Didn’t realize Zelensky was running Hamas as well
Biden’s buddy Ted Kennedy sold us out during Vietnam.
North Viet Nam lost the war.
Then after the peace Teddy Kennedy assured them if they attacked that the Democrats would not permit US troops to come to the aid of the South.
Teddy kept his word.
