The Israel Defense Forces (IDF) approved a plan Sunday for attacking the final Hamas stronghold in the city of Rafah in southern Gaza, near the Egyptian border, as U.S. Secretary of State Antony Blinken prepared to visit on Tuesday.

The IDF said in a statement:

Today (Sunday), on the eve of the second holiday of Passover, the Chief of the General Staff, LTG Herzi Halevi, discussed and approved plans for the continuation of the war with the Commanding Officer of the Southern Command, MG Yaron Finkelman, and all the division and brigade commanders in the command.

Biden: “Don’t”. “Pause”. “Smile”. “Wave”. “Exit Stage”.

This Rafa operation should have started a month ago

This is all big talk from bibi

Israelis will do everything Hamas tells them to do. Israel is week and pathetic

My hopes are that this government falls and bibi gets replaced by someone who truly loves the Israelis and does the right thing by destroying Hamas

Israelis have gone limp

Israel needs to cut the American foreign policy cord

They need to manufacture their own armament

When Hamas is destroyed, the legacy of the black president Barack Obama also dies.

The Obama illusion that a strong Iran pacified the region is ended.

(however, Obama can keep his $70 million and the house in Nantucket)

Foolish rant

The assault on Rafah has been delayed while determining where precisely to attack to kill Sinwar.

“They need to manufacture their own armament.”

They already do. IMI is an excellent supplier of small arms and ammunition. And anything the Israelis buy from us they make better.

So take your negativity, fold it up till it’s all sharp edges, and sit on it.

Then wiggle.

Blinken is a self hating jew. He would have made a great Kapo in Hitler’s concentration camps.

“They need to manufacture their own armament”

Sure. With only 11 million people and a GDP of $525 billion.

Try to imagine how bizarre and surreal Blincken must appear to Israelis. He will look Isreali leaders in the eye and tell then after being attacked by an adjacent Palestinian state, after having its citizens murdered and taken hostage, after shedding more blood to destroy the attackers,not only should Israel leave the Hamas remnant intact in southern Gaza but they should welcome an even more powerful adjacent Palestinian state as part of a “two state solution”. Blincken and the people he represents are beyond absurd. The Israelis know they must always win, survive and prosper. There will never be a true peace as long as the concept of Palestine is a definable political entity.

The Foreign Military Financing that Israel receives from the US is a bribe to prevent Israel from competing directly with the US military industrial complex.

Currently that FMF represents 15% of Israel defense budget. And that money also buys senior Israeli military and intelligence officers to the detriment of Israel’s safety.

Israel is wealthy enough to afford doing without American interference.

I hope that Israel pulls out the stops and just bombs Rafah flat. There is nothing but Hamas infesting that rat-hole.

Pretty sure the IDF doesn’t give a rat’s behind about what Blinky or FJB think or feel . . .

IDF could bomb them back to the Stone Age, but that would only take a couple of minutes . . .
