For Hamas, Everything Is Going According to Plan
The Atlantic ^ | JUNE 14, 2024 | Hussein Ibish

Posted on 06/15/2024 10:07:39 AM PDT by MinorityRepublican

The leaders of both Israel and Hamas seem content for the war in Gaza to grind on into the indefinite future. Such is the upshot of their ambiguous, but essentially negative, responses to President Joe Biden’s peace proposal, which is now fully backed by the United Nations Security Council. And the reasons are obvious.

Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu seems to have concluded that the best way to stay out of prison on corruption charges is to stay in office, and the best way to do that is to keep the war going. Hamas, meanwhile, believes that it is winning.

As long as we continue to fund both sides of the war, it will continue.

There are only a few ways to get more annoyed than reading the Atlantic.

it is incorrect to suggest that Netanyahu only cares about staying in office.

Even if you conclude that you can not completely destroy Hamas, there is still merit in further diminishing Hamas by continuing to clobber them, their tunnels, etc for month after month.

That is all the reason Netanyahu and Israel needs to keep going.

Hamas has already “not agreed” their own suppoed “deal”. All bullcrap especially for water carrying for Hamas done by Xiden and Blinken/Nod and idiot Jake Sullivan. Bozos all- useful tools.

At the same time, he wants to stay in office.

Islam’s proxies will continue to destroy civilizations until the entire world is under Islamic control. That is their plan in this forever war.

Most of the members of Hamas have been killed or captured by the IDF. So the war is only going according to their plan if one of their goals is to commit suicide.

Nothing about how one sided the “Biden” proposal is or how devastating for Israell’s long term peace. Color me not surprised.

The Israelis needs to figure out soon whether they're going to destroy Hamas or take the first flight out of Tel Aviv.

Gee, I wonder who “wins”???

1. Open border elites getting rid of thousands and tens of thousands of Middle East young men who will not populate the area.

2. Arms manufacturers and delivery corporations and their owners (Blackrock, State Street, Vanguard and most of our legislators, flag officers and deep state bureaucrats)

3. Information/News/TV networks with the broadcast rights and ads for the war porn.

4. Medical/Pharmaceutical industries with all the test subjects to do studies on meds, vaccines, surgical equipment and procedures provided by our families and the DOD.

sure most politicians want to stay in office. Its intellectually lazy for the author to suggest this is his primary motive.

The The Atlantic is a stupid marxist Biden sexual weirdo rag. Once they were worth reading - not any more.

They’ve made their decision.
They’re going to eradicate Hamas and repeat what they did after Munich.

They DO NOT CARE what “the world” thinks and honestly, do you think they wouldn’t set off EMP devices over every single Mideast country AND Turkey if the were being over run?

Everyone will tsk tsk but secretly let out a sigh of relief if the Mideast turned into a pre-electricity civilization. We’d wring our hands, clutch our pearls and wipe away crocodile tears for the MILLIONS killed by the evil JOOS.

Like I’ve said, all the Hamas supporters need to be doxxed and listed and declared enemies of the state. Every single fed employee, journalist, professor , celebrity , student , banker, lawyer and candlestick maker is the enemy and would gladly kill you or any patriotic American citizen and our families.
