US officials: Sinwar trapped underground, running low on supplies
Arutz Sheva ^ | 22/8/24

Posted on 08/22/2024 12:09:31 AM PDT by Eleutheria5

US officials believe that Hamas leader Yahya Sinwar wants to strike a deal with Israel since he is "trapped" underground and running out of ammunition and supplies, Washington Post journalist David Ignatius wrote in an opinion column on Wednesday.

With their desire for a deal to end their misery, Ignatius notes that Hamas is "playing a waiting game," hoping that Iran or Hezbollah will attack Israel, a move that would transform the battlefield.

However, he writes that Iran will likely disappoint Hamas. He reports that US officials estimate that Iranian leaders have decided to delay their strike on Israel, deterred by strong threats by the US.

According to Ignatius, Tehran is urging Hezbollah to strike Israel in its place. On Hezbollah's part, US officials believe that its leader Hassan Nasrallah has backed down from his initial plan to launch a missile barrage on Tel Aviv and will instead choose to hit other targets.

This is from WaPo, and it quotes "US Officials". In other words, BS. Rats are not "trapped underground". That's their element. "Supplies" is what they shout at a Japanese birthday party. So long as there's "humanitarian aid" to steal and sell, and the rank and file Hamas are at liberty underground in their element, Sinwar, et al., are not "trapped" at all.

Find him. Kill him. Then display his dead body as he's done with numerous hostages. Then dump him in the ocean like UBL was, preferably wrapped in pig skin.

If this Satanic Fakestinian mass- murdering terrorist is really running low in supplies, I’m sure that Israel will send in a whole trucking convoy of new free goodies to keep him alive and happy. Like how Israel treats that other mass- murdering Fakestinian terrorist Abbas of the PLO/ Fatah gang
The Jews just can’t seem to learn how to defeat enemies. Hint: stop giving them supplies and funds. USA didn’t drop free money and food on Hiroshima or Dresden, at least not until victory was achieved.

Learn, Israel, learn from history. Your own history as well as the history of other nations. Study and learn. And then blow the Fakestinian terrorists straight to jahannam (Moslem Hell) and be done with them.
Idf is fighting for victory, it is supposed to be an army not a charitable organization or a welfare services agency for the enemy. Learn. And do.

I believe that the article is correct and was leaked as a way for US intelligence officials to warn Hamas and its supporters that they cannot count on US pressure to rescue them because the weakness of Hamas is known to Israel. The IDF is now like a terrier ripping into a rat's nest. They will not be stopped by anything Hamas can do in the field or by outside intervention.

In military terms, the IDF has command of the battle space in Gaza and is engaged in an operation of defeat in detail against Hamas. Pinned down, with lines of communication impaired and supplies running out, Hamas's military power is much diminished and its defeat as an organized force is well underway.

As US and Israeli negotiators are no doubt warning, unless there is a hostage deal, Sinwar and the other Hamas leaders in Gaza will be killed or captured.

The US intelligence is running a psy op, then.

I suspect it is election misinformation. AOC says Kamala is doing everything to effect a cease fire! Isn’t she wonderful? The administration will force a cease fire on Israel to give her a victory and this is a lead up to that.

The rape war enablers are beating the drums of “peace peace”. I remember the movie about the Boston marathon bomber. Even his wife was a true believer in murder. Of course since the experts at the Olympics can’t tell the men from the women, we will not be hearing about “women and children”.
Meanwhile we are preparing for nuclear war with N Korea???? Funny how the dems are now war mongers and the conservatives are anti sending our sons, daughters and tax dollars.

The administration is trying to force a cease fire, but Israel and Netanyahu are unlikely to buckle for the sake of electing Kamala or puffing up Biden.

Phosgene is a go-to remedy in these situations. It is heavier than air and sinks to low points such as underground tunnels. It causes a terrorist to drown in his own fluids as his lungs fill with water. It's a great weapon to use against tunnel rat terrorists.

After the Gazan terrorist are killed, Israel needs to eliminate the terrorist at the New York Times, Washington Post, CNN and especially MSNBC. /spit

The deal with Sinwar is......you die.

That’s all, no more, no less. Death is trhe only outcome.

Hostages? don’t matter. Sinwar dies
