Some are wondering why Israel hasn’t begun the ground assault on Hamas yet. The answer is in Washington D.C.
After the Hamas atrocities, Israel went on a full war footing. 300,000 Israelis have been evacuated from front line areas and the IDF mobilized 300,000 troops. Those are people who are not with their families or working, some flew in from abroad. This makes Israel one of the most mobilized nations in the world. But it can’t keep that up forever.
But instead of going in, everyone is waiting because D.C. and the EU want to hold off an assault on Hamas.
U.S. and European governments have joined to put pressure on Israel to hold off on its ground invasion of Gaza to allow more time to win the release of hostages held by Hamas, U.S. and foreign officials said.
Several countries have been trying to leverage their contacts with Hamas to press the militant group to release the hostages taken during their onslaught on Israel earlier this month. One U.S. official had said that Qatar’s government had been very helpful on the matter, but noted the difficulties of reaching an agreement given Israel’s bombardment of Gaza and the spiraling humanitarian crisis there.
Qatar is a state sponsor of Hamas. It’s harboring Hamas leaders. Before the Hamas attack on Israel, Qatar very helpfully negotiated a truce.
And now that the U.S. and the EU have made it clear that they can stop Israel from taking out Hamas as leverage for the hostages, Hamas has no reason to release the hostages.
Those hostages are the only reason IDF soldiers aren’t in Gaza City right now.
Rather than securing their release, they’ve made them more valuable as hostages.
What did Hamas buy with the release of two female American hostages? The conviction by D.C. diplomats that they can get more released if they just spend more time negotiating with Hamas.
The United States is pressing Israel to hold off on a ground invasion of Gaza to allow for more time for hostage negotiations, according to a CNN report published Sunday.
“The [administration] pressed Israeli leadership to delay because of progress on the hostage front,” a person familiar with the U.S.-Israel talks told the cable network, one of two sources it cited in its report.
Asked on Meet the Press on Sunday about the U.S. delaying a possible ground incursion by Israel into Gaza, Secretary of State Antony Blinken sidestepped the question, but said they are not “second guessing” their ally.
On Saturday, President Joe Biden responded to a question about delaying a potential ground incursion by telling reporters: “I’m talking to the Israelis.”
It’s in Hamas’ interests to appear reasonable, but to hang on to enough hostages to slow any Israeli action.
And Hamas is doing just that with the able assistance of its useful idiots in D.C. and Europe.
“Hamas does not appear to have gotten anything concrete out of the Friday release of Americans Judith Tai Raanan and her 17-year-old daughter, Natalie Raanan,” CNN claims.
Hamas has gotten Israel to delay a ground assault. How much more concrete can you get?
As if Alzheimer Joe is actually talking to Israeli officials. That retard can’t even finish a sentence and NOBODY takes him seriously. He’s a doddering old dolt with stage four or five Alzheimer’s who’ll be dead soon. Not too soon, in my opinion. Just hurry up and die, you weak ass old man.
And Israel needs to stop listening to countries which hate it. THE HOSTAGES ARE LOST. Just destroy all of Gaza. Bulldoze it into the Sinai. Don’t pollute the beautiful Mediterranean. Make “Gaza” a public beach for Israelis.
We know that is is obasturd who is the controller here, with all his IRI and moslem brotherhood loving minions.
I totally agree, Israel should ignore the scum, just giving the enemy time to get in position, especially with the materiel – I mean aid coming in un searched trucks…
Yeah, like the Paleosimian Red Crescent “ambulances” which are actually mobile weapons depots.
I’ll never give a penny to the scumbag Red Cross.
Statistics in Israel say there are about 200,000 Jews with dual American and Israeli citizenship who live in Israel.
And 900,000 Americans visited Israel last year.
All of a sudden Washington is aware of Americans living in and visiting Israel?
IBM computers made it possible for Germany in the 1930’s to ‘sort out’ its Jews, to know the name of every Jew and exactly where that Jew lived.
Let’s put the value of human life in God’s world aside and wonder: how exactly does the Biden team evaluate a dual citizen life?
Does the Israeli part cancel out the American part?
Is the American part null and void if it’s Jewish?
What Biden is doing is holding Israel hostage.
There were righteous gentiles in the Holocaust because there were no righteous nations.
And there are no righteous nations today.
I would define peace as the absence of immorality.
Hatred of Jews and Israel
is in direct proportion to immorality. The more immorality, the more hatred.
When there is truly no more hatred of Jews and Israel, there will be peace.
In the meantime, Israel will not allow herself to be held hostage by this unrighteousness, immoral world.
Always, with God’s promise, blessings and help,
the nation of Israel has lived, lives and will live.
This is just maybe hearsay but I have it from two Israeli sources that the 2 women released are BDS supporters as well as being connected to NBC Israel. Why these 2 healthy women, where are the babies and children?
Sounds typical. It wouldn’t surprise me a bit if that were true.
Israel has long experienced, and is well versed in, the adage ‘Death by a thousand cuts’, with the international community often preventing any healing salve. Those scars have made Israel stronger, but little did they know that a nation once friendly to them would choose to help with the bleeding and hold the knife.
Saw this coming. From day 2, simply searching the internet with keyword “Israel”, the left hand column “News” responses were already showing calls for Israel to show restraint.
It’s now Oct 23. Gaza should have become a parking lot almost two weeks ago.
Good luck now. “He who hesitates is lost” is always a regrettable lesson learned.
Obvious that Joke Biden wen to Israel to help Hamas. Notice he didn’t even attempt to lean on Hamas to give up our USA citizen hostages.
One would think that the E.U. would know better by now. You can’t fix stupid, sadly.
Well, I’d say the U.S. and Europeans are giving all hostile powers in the world a good roadmap on how to paralyze us in the face of their depredations. Good going you dumb, weak, bastards.
Qatar has to be taken down as well. Sanctions up and down the ying yang till they hand over the Hamas leadership to Israel for trial and execution. Or at least to the Criminal Court. But I have little hope that will happen. Maybe Saudi will smarten and up and conquer them permanently, not that they are our friends.
Qatar. Pronounced “gutter. It should be nuked off the maps.
DEMS want Israel to go to the gas chambers peacefully.
Just like DEMS want conservatives in the US to go to the gulag/gas chambers meekly.
Americans in the next 12 months are about to get a terrifying crash course in TOTLAITARIANISM.
Israel already knows the Biden regime is just Obama 2.0.
Some are wondering. Some know Biden is a proxy. As divisive as that is. If you want antidotes to divisive give Lindsay Graham a call.
“Netanyahu REVEALS Big Plan For Gaza After Hamas” – “the hen is the wisest of all of the animals of creation because she never cackles until the egg is laid.” – Abraham Lincoln
Now I’m sure Netanyahu can get some sort of temporary victory here. That I don’t doubt.
Should have told me I was Zarathustra instead of your stupid story and this would have never happened. Just the energy sitting in my heart would have .are it impossible. You can try to enslave the Universe, and not like Muslims didn’t try but their Messiah story is too stupid for anyone to buy, but there’s a price. It can turn around in a second or get so much worse. Your move.
Some people in time think :;: I did it because of that. No the Arabs try doing this every week, and your slug guys erasing my memory kept me from warning you. I can hate what you did and still love and want you to live.
