IDF Deaths Hit 300 as 4 Killed in Booby-trapped Building; Biden’s Rules of Engagement Discourage Bombing
Breitbart ^ | 06/11/2024 | JOEL B. POLLAK

The number of Israeli military deaths reached 300 on Tuesday after four soldiers were killed in Rafah by an explosion in a booby-trapped building that collapsed on them.

Israel is often forced to send soldiers into Hamas-infested buildings because the Biden administration has explicitly opposed Israel’s preferred tactic of bombing them.

Last month, the U.S. withheld a shipment of large precision-guided munitions from Israel to reinforce its opposition to their use.

The Times of Israel reported:

our soldiers were killed and another seven were wounded in the Gaza Strip when a booby-trapped building collapsed on them, Israel said Tuesday as troops continued to battle Hamas in the south and center of the Palestinian enclave.

Their deaths brought the number of troops killed during Israel’s ground offensive against Hamas in Gaza and amid operations along the border to 300. The toll includes a police officer killed on Saturday during an operation to rescue four hostages.

The IDF said that it later found a tunnel shaft inside the home, indicating that the building likely belonged to a Hamas operative.

Biden’s “Rule of engagement” #1. You cannot kill Hamas terrorists.

The Soviets made great use out of rubble during the battle of Stalingrad. The same thing could be happening here. Easy for Hamas terrorists to hide in the rubble and the tunnels to attack the IDF.

Why does Israel care about Biden’s rules of engagement? Screw that.

I don’t understand , if IDF runs into a suspected Hamas position why don’t they just put a Tank shell into it and call it a day, instead of send troops in to find out.

“Why does Israel care about Biden’s rules of engagement?”

Because they need American arms. And that bastard Biden has already cut them off once.

Tell you what, if Hamas again hits Israel again like they did in October, I don’t anyone there will give a hoot about what Biden thinks or says, even Gantz. They’ll want them exterminated, period.
