White House: Israel Has ‘to Be More Careful’ to Ensure Civilian Areas Hamas Hides in Aren’t ‘Scenes of Battle’
Breitbart ^ | 01/25/2024 | IAN HANCHETT

Posted on 01/25/2024 6:42:38 AM PST by ChicagoConservative27

On Wednesday’s broadcast of “CNN News Central,” White House National Security Council Coordinator for Strategic Communications John Kirby stated that Hamas does hide in hospitals and residential areas and Israel has the right to go after Hamas wherever they hide, but Israel also has “a special burden to be mindful of civilian infrastructure, particularly, hospitals and residential complexes like that, where we don’t want to see them become scenes of battle. So, nobody wants to see fighting in a hospital. So, it does add an extra burden on the Israelis to be more careful, more deliberate.”

Co-host Brianna Keilar asked, “What is the Israeli responsibility here to protect the civilian population, even if you believe that Hamas may be operating near or using some of these people as shields?”

Should have Hamas been more "careful" on October 7th? Kirby is a total joke.

Hamas has the responsibility to not hide amongst civilians. The civilians -if there truly are any- have a responsibility to evacuate the area.

There is no wonder why the US is seen as weak around the word. Had we stood strong with Israel for one solid week, it would have been over with minimal civilian casualties. But, no.

These people have never been in a fight. You don’t stand toe to toe and politely trade punches until you both are bloody and broken. You go full wild animal for 15 seconds and the fight is over.

So is blinkin. Thinkin’ the white hut needs to STFU. Wonder what will be the response when some ‘illegals’ pull the same sort of crap in the d.c. area. Oh wait. I know. Stronger gun laws right? Almost like it’s part of a plan or something.

Is hamas careful when they launch a massive barrage of rockets into Israel? Israel has been as careful as they can be while hunting down and eliminating evil. It is nobody else’s business because they aren’t the ones constantly attacked and killed merci.essly by terrorists.

And jusy for the record, how careful were we when we went to wars? Carpet bombing areas, mass bombing towns and factories, etc etc etc... that is war. War is not a fun game where noone gets hurt- war is hell, and if a terrorist faction like hamas doesn’t want to be pounded to smithereens, then stop the crap and get along with Israel and everything will be fine and peaceful- but we all onow hamas will never zccept peace and will continue to be a very dangerous threat to Israel. ear nations have no right telling Israel how to conduct their war after she has been attacked so relentlessly for so many 1000’s of years

The Gaza government has no special burden to protect its own citizens. /s

Jordan (Arab Palestine) has no special burden to take in its own people as refugees. /s

A military facility disguised as a hospital is not a hospital.

These Palestinians are all Muslims and they support Hamas 100%. They are complicit and you can bet they were joyous on October 7th.

There is a deliberate effort to pretend that there are INNOCENT civilians in Gaza.

There is no such thing.

They voted for Hamas to represent them-—a “one time-forever”
vote.

They have no standing to now demand to be treated as “innocent” civilians.

Oh, it does, does it, Kirby?

Who in the US is now playing God and assigning "an extra burden" on Israel?

YEAH, taking advice from a government that couldn’t beat goat humping, boy lovers in Afghanistan in spite of their lack of “F-15s” or the Vietnamese guerrillas, or the Iraqis..... FJB.

That’s the “problem” with counter insurgency, not very many people have the stomach for it. It will take 5-10 years to “defeat Hamas” because of spineless quislings like those currently in our swamp. They’re to busy trying to make genderless uniforms and eliminating white Christian terrorists from the armed forces.....

Since Kirby acknowledges Hamas uses civilian centers as bases of operations, and that Israel has the right to engage there, being more careful, why not suggest war crimes against Hamas leaders? Including those billionaires not residing in Gaza. I believe the Taylor Force Act expired in September, banning the US government from funding the palestinians until they cease paying the terrorists and inciting the population. I know it's just another law Biden ignored, but would they support an extension. Or does the US support continuing the funding the terrorists captured and the families of those killed in Gaza?

But the President sounds quite willing to use F-16s on “MAGA insurrectionists” wherever they are in the US. Puzzling.

The White House needs to support Israel. Hamas and all who support it are war criminals.
