Just as with Sir Winston Churchill, there is no better Prime Minister for Israel at this decisive hour than Benjamin Netanyahu.

Hama can’t be trusted.

It’s a pretty simple negotiation...

All Israel needs are the hostages that are still alive and the bodies of those they’ve murdered... Then a list of every person who was involved in any way, shape or form in the attack on October 7th, hand over any participants they know of... Then Israel will hunt down the rest and execute them.

Do that and the slaughter ends. Until then continue hiding with your wife and children or in a school or at hospital... And face the consequences. There is nowhere for you to hide.

It hinges upon hostages, most of which Hamas can no longer produce, because they are no longer alive.

Hamas must END. Period.

As much as I think Netanyahu needs to be backed in every way regarding the prosecution of this war, you have to concede that anything accomplished through negotiations that prolongs the existence of Hamas, is a concession.

The only thing worthy of extending that existence is the absolute release of all hostages, Israel’s right to continue its campaign after a brief pause and no release of any fighters or terrorists in custody.

Unfortunately, as Israel always releases murderers and rapists in these negotiations, it may be expected to happen again, which is another concession baked into the negotiation cake. Hopefully, they can minimize this.

In a sane world release would only apply to those who can establish they did not bear arms or assist in terrorist activities in the past and otherwise have no blood on their hands. How can anyone release people who have killed or attempted to kill your people and promise to kill more of your people if released?

Bibi knows the only use the Hamas Islamo-Fascists have for the hostages is as a political football. They're like Lucy holding the football and they want Israel to behave like Charlie Brown trying to kick it.

Likewise, nothing will ever/can ever come from "negotiations" because Hamas' only objective in negotiating is to cause political strife in Israel (and among its allies) and, hopefully, undermine the position of the Netanyahu government.

But the Hamas-o-Fascists aren't the only ones stalling. Netanyahu also is playing for time, time he spends gathering intel, trying to locate the hostages. And when he manages to locate where they are being held captive, them he sends in the rough men with loud power tools to kill as many of the captors as possible and rescue whatever's left of the hostages. And the longer this drags on, the more Hamas-niks Israel will kill.

Because unlike the idiots clamoring for Binyamin to grant whatever concessions the TERRORISTS are asking for, he understands that the only realistic plan for repatriating the hostages MUST begin with killing those who hold them captive.

The only effective means of negotiation with these Faux-Palestinians is delivering an M855A1 EPR to the lower brain housing group from powderburn distance.
