IDF: NETANYAHU’S GOAL OF ELIMINATING HAMAS IS UNACHIEVABLE
The Libertarian Institute ^ | 6/20/24 | Kyle Anzalone

Posted on 06/20/2024 7:16:18 PM PDT by hardspunned

The spokesman for the Israeli military explained that Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu’s goal of eradicating Hamas is not achievable. The statement comes amid a growing rift between the Israeli leader and the military. In remarks to Israel’s Channel 13 News on Wednesday, Rear Adm. Daniel Hagari, the military spokesperson, explained that the PM’s stated objective in Gaza is an insult to the Israeli people. “This business of destroying Hamas, making Hamas disappear – it’s simply throwing sand in the eyes of the public,” he said. “Hamas is an idea, Hamas is a party. It’s rooted in the hearts of the people – whoever thinks we can eliminate Hamas is wrong.” The statement from Hagari reflects assessments from US intelligence and military officials that destroying Hamas is not something that can be accomplished. The US intelligence community’s threat assessment released in March said that Israel would likely be fighting Hamas for years to come.

The logi_cal869 dude states as unequivocal FACT...

Ahem: Using your own words, "Prove it."

It is quite illuminating how true to old saying is, "give them a little rope..."

You are using leftist tactics. You are either

  1. a troll,
  2. a rino or
  3. emotionally compromised.

CHOOSE...

If the IDF is right, then Israel has no choice but to cut off southern Gaza from everything, make it possible for civilians who want to leave to leave, and let no food or water in until the remaining hostages are released and Hamas surrenders. Sooner ot later the civilians in southern Gaza will have to put their own lives on the line and turn on Hamas.

So, then, you choose to demand that I “be realistic,”

Is that it? /s

Is that statement original to LeMay?

Is anything truly original? LeMay said it.

He probably was not the first one to say it. Check the last 10,000 years or so of war commentary.

We have lived sheltered lives in prosperous times and do not want to look at what it really takes to win a war. But it has never really changed.

In America, a lot of it is due to the MIC.

That's not the case with other countries in the West.

Are you nuts? That would defeat the whole Israeli purpose. The goal, after the Palestinians are killed or driven away, is to steal the rest of their land. After the genocide, ghouls like Kushner are set to make the big bucks on luxury Gazan beachfront property. He’s so above selling Palestinian hair and good teeth, not enough $$$ in that.

“Steal” their land? Invented Palestinians made their bed empowering Hamas and FAtah.

Kushner hotels won’t be lobbing missiles and rockets in to Tel Aviv.

You really don’t know what you’re talking about. Take a look at the map of the ME from 1945. Notice the country of Palestine? Notice there is NO Israel. Where are the receipts from the land purchases that turned Palestine into Israel? They don’t exist because the Palestinian land was stolen. If your family’s land was stolen and your family was put into an open air concentration camp, would just watch your family die or would you resist? Stop being such a Zionist racist stooge. Educate yourself!
