Biden Administration: Attacking Hamas in Rafah Would Strengthen Them
Breitbart ^ | 05/09/2024 | JOEL B. POLLAK

Posted on 05/09/2024 12:21:21 PM PDT by ChicagoConservative27

The Biden administration tried to argue Thursday that if Israel launched an ambitious attack on Hamas in Rafah, that would strengthen Hamas, improve Hamas’s leverage in hostage negotiations, and build popular support for Hamas.

Israel launched a limited operation in Rafah this week, near the Egyptian border, as it prepares to take on the final four Hamas battalions in a town that is viewed as the last stronghold of the terrorist organization in the Gaza Strip.

State Department spokesman Matthew Miller said that an Israeli military campaign in Rafah would “actually weaken … Israel’s security.” He also said that the U.S. had presented Israel with “a full range of policy choices” that would achieve the same goal of dismantling Hamas without entering Rafah, but did not explain what those choices were.

Does the chomo have information we don’t? Like Hamas operatives invited across the southern border will retaliate on US soil?

So killing the four battalions of Hamas fighters in Rafah makes Hamas stronger? What sort of logic is that?

This is illogical... If you kill your enemy, then you have less enemies. If you don’t, you have the same amount or more because they can reproduce.

Kill them early, kill them often, kill them all. That is how you deal with enemies.

When it comes to Democrat war time US. government propaganda, I prefer the 1960s Democrat mindset of “we had to destroy the hamlet to save it”

Now it all finally makes sense after all these years.

Let's save Gaza- NOW !

I was going to type:

Mark Hamel calling him JoeB Wan Kenobi really went to his head:
"If you strike me down, I shall become more powerful than you can possibly imagine.".

They will just print more ballots to dump at 3 am. If the Trump campaign and RNC have any smarts, they know where they need to have lawyers present at key counting centers that will not take any bs from Democrat cheaters.
