Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu issued a video statement on Sunday insisting that Israel will not agree to Hamas’s demand that it end the war as a condition of a deal to release the remaining Israeli hostages in Gaza.
“Israel has been, and still is, ready for a pause in the fighting in order to free our hostages,” he said. “[But] Israel will not agree to Hamas’s demands, which would mean surrender; it will continue fighting until all of its objectives are achieved.”

Evidently you know nothing about Binjamin Netanyahu. He is the greatest living world leader, who has seen more, done more, given more for his country than all of the cowards who routinely insult him, including the communist Obama and his lackey Biden.
Once done with them, likely disposed of. They have no idea or consideration of the value of human life.
every word coming out of their mouth is a lie, not to be trusted.
The problem is, from the stand point of those who do value human life, what to do with these failed representatives of humanity.
“ What are they waiting for to complete the job?”
Solid intel and opportunity.
He seems to be a very strong leader. The pressure coming from the current US administration & the international community is tremendous. I assume there are internal elements seeking both compromises and a political advantage. Yet, he has not chosen “to go wobbly” thus far.
The savages of hamas had their “cease fire” on Oct 6 and look what Israel received in response. No matter what Israel does, they will be condemned so they may as well just rip off the proverbial band-aid and destroy every vestige of hamas including the assassination of their leaders who are hiding out in Qatar.
Bibi has more courage in his little finger than you, keyboard warrior, have in your whole miserable body. You have exactly zero reasons to call this man a "weak leader". He is the leader we only wish we had instead of the drooling pedo sellout to our enemies that was finagled into the Oval Office.
But now the out of work “Gazans” will get continual humanitarian aid most likely indefinitely, paid by US tazpayers
Good lord go into Rafah already should have been done months ago that’s where the hostages are and the remaining Hamas jihadists
They were waiting for the US to sent the next round of ammo, but Biden/0bama are withholding the ammo until more IDF troops are killed and Israel has to accept Hamas’ conditions.
There have been targeted attacks but not much widescale attack. Israel withdrew at least one battalion though there also must be some rotations. Israel opened more humanitarian aid crossings. The only place left to really go is Rafah but there are 1 million people evacuated there.
Jordan sent recently a convoy of aid. As it crossed into Israel some angry Israeli citizens tried to stop it. The Israelis arrested those citizens and got the aid to the crossing. Then when it crossed into Gaza, Hamas attacked and stole the aid trucks. But don’t worry the UN is on the case. They’ll find the food. Lol.
Hamas then launched rockets at the aid crossing so Israel shut it down and hit back at the launch sites in Rafah. Hamas is making the case why Israel has to go into Rafah. Stupid. All Hamas has to is surrender. They cannot win, but they watch MSNBC so they think the people are with them.
The internal pressure in Israel to cut a deal that releases the hostages is growing. I’ve said this on many threads, the Israelis have traditionally been leftists at heart. They don’t want this. They want peace and to always a deal for peace. Which is generally the right attitude but that only works when the other side is capable and willing. The Palestinians are neither. Hamas definitely will commit their own people’s death to the cause, and the West Bank has no central leadership. But the Israeli people would rather leave Hamas in place if they can get their people back.
Kill every last one of these invaders of Israel.
Too many civilians. Israel made the mistake. Maybe they had bad intel, got tricked, or were too hasty and didn’t think through what would happened once they cleared the north. They should have sent people west, not south. The ground is softer there due to the Sea, so fewer tunnels. I think perhaps once that pier is build there will be places for the Rafah civilians to move. Israel is setting up tens of thousands of temporary housing in the west. They published the maps for the media. It is Nearer that flotilla that is being build where foreign aid will be shipped in, in a civilian area that has already been cleared out of tunnels and weapons.
I think it’s the plan, or should be the plan- move all the aid to distribution points along the coast. The civilians will move there because that’s where the food is. That leaves the areas where the tunnels and weapons are located, especially Rafah, much more wide open.
An aside: I read that Blinken demanded Qatar kick Hamas leaders out if they don’t make a deal this week.
There are no hostages to free any longer. There never are (any left) when dealing with Muslims.
It’s best to regard the hostages as dead by this point. Otherwise we would have seen endless videos of them pleading for release.
Absence of video is telling.
Terminate Hamas.
Launched at the aid crossing! Hamas savages. They stole the Jordanian aid and then attacked the aid crossing. Israel had to close it. Hamas’ own people suffer. I know that is their strategy. Too many in the west don’t understand it, don’t see it, are in denial of what Hamas is and how they rule.
They did make some video they claimed were proof of life recently of a few people. But just a few. Who knows.
It’s 1945, the Nazis promise not to kill anymore Jews, if the Allies leave Hitler alone. Do you make that deal? I think not!
Some intelligence indicates Sinwar has around 20 hostages surrounding him personally. He intends to kill them if he goes down.
Maybe a few other hostages held by ‘civilan’ clans or groups independent of Hamas, looking for a payout.
Israel, unfortunately, also is willing to sacrifice live Jewish soldiers for dead Jewish bodies.
