Forces had no direct confrontation with Hamas terrorists who killed hostages; ‘The IDF and security forces are doing everything possible to bring all hostages home as quickly as possible. This news shakes us all,’ says army spokesperson Hagari
Israeli forces discovered the bodies of six hostages in a 65-foot-deep tunnel in Rafah, approximately a kilometer from where hostage Farhan Alkadi was recently freed. The IDF had no precise intelligence on the hostages’ location in recent months but knew there were captives in the sector, leading to a gradual and cautious operation in Rafah since the ground offensive began.
That was the publicly stated policy. The US did negotiate with the PLO and we did have non-official cover diplomats going in and out of Gaza every week.
Israel funding Hamas is another lie. I can do it, too. The UN funds Hamas because it provides food to Gaza, keeping Hamas in power by preventing the Gazan people from having to live with the consequences of their choices (having no food because they prefer to have terrorists in charge). I mean, that’s technically true, but not really funding Hamas.
So you mean… “negotiating with terrorists” is actually necessary?
And I said funded and supported. Here is the Times of Israel, a well known antisemitic, anti-israel publication : https://www.timesofisrael.com/for-years-netanyahu-propped-up-hamas-now-its-blown-up-in-our-faces/
No negotiating with terrorists isn’t necessary. Terrorists don’t get to have a country. Real simple.
Letting Qatari cash into Gaza as well as issuing work permits to Gazan’s is not “funding and supporting.” Reread your article.
Terrorists don’t get a country? Must be news to the Irgun crowd.
And sorry, I’m not going to re-litigate Netanyahu’s propping up of Hamas here. This is known, Khaleesi.
So why did Israel get one considering those founders were terrorists?
