Yes B T : Nothing or no good news comes out of the Gaza Strip. Hamas governs how they want and with an iron hand. Support Hamas or ? But friends of J C ,I think. But now Naftali Bennet is Minister of Defence ,not 'Bibi'. I think he will apply strong hand tactics after our voting finished today. 'Bibi' was a little scared of upsetting the International Community. I am voting ''Blue & White '' Benny Ganz's party,.....anything but 'Bibi'. I think' Bibi's tactic is simple. As both major parties are equal ,with 'Bibi' leading by 1-2 seats? He will be asked to form the Government,he will have his own party ,the Likud , plus the religious,plus the settlers in Judea & Samaria,and any right wing Party. (Of course the religious will say ''we will keep you in power ,just give us the money!'' And so they become stronger and stronger. Just saying like.

BT: writes , ....''and the IDF can indiscriminately bomb the phook out of anyone they want''.

Remember that "innocent civilian," as the Syrian media called him, that was killed by an Israeli missile fired from a drone in a surgical strike in Syria last week? Well, he was neither a civilian nor innocent.

Hezbollah operative Imad at-Tawil was killed in the Syrian Golan Heights by an Israeli drone, Arab media reports.
(February 27, 2020 / JNS) A senior Hezbollah operative was killed on Thursday in an Israeli drone strike in Syria, according to Arab media reports.

The official was named as Imad at-Tawil.
The Jordan-based Al-Hadath news outlet reported that Tawil was in charge of creating an Iranian-backed terrorist network on the Syrian side of the Golan Heights, presumably in order to make that area a theater of operations against Israel.

Hezbollah has been involved in the Syrian civil war for the past several years. Israel has warned Hezbollah it will not let the Shi’ite terrorist group build bases and networks in Syria that could be used as a staging ground for attacks against Israel.

Give that man a medal!!!

Serbian pres tells ‘Post’ he will buy weapons from Israel
The Serbian president announced that his country is planning to open a diplomatic mission and an economic office in Jerusalem.

In a response to questions about the anti-Israel Boycott, Divestment, Sanctions (BDS) campaign in Western Europe targeting Israel, Vučić said the Serbian purchase of weapons from Israel will “not be a small delivery.”

''Will someone give that man a medal please!''

Well, on this bright sunny day here ,yes its getting warmer, sunny and 18 C outside. What news do we have for you ? You know Islamic Jehad fires hundreds of rockets into Israel. Israel replies by hitting weapons stores ,training facilities ,tunnels etc.
But the Egyptian's are not so soft with 'Islamic Jehad'.

Egypt sentences 37 to death including top militant leader

An Egyptian court on Monday sentenced to death 37 defendants, including one of the country's most high-profile militants, following their conviction of terrorism-related charges.
The Cairo Criminal Court said the defendants were charged with belonging to a local affiliate of the Islamic State group spearheading an insurgency in Egypt's Sinai Peninsula.

Israel seizes $4 million in Iranian terror money sent to Hamas

Defence Minister Naftali Bennett: "We will pursue anyone who harms us, in order to make killing Israelis an unprofitable business.

The money is intended to develop Hamas terrorist infrastructure in Gaza, including the production of weapons and payment to the organisation's terrorists, and originates from the Iranian government working against the State of Israel.

A Gaza money exchange company which is owned by Gaza businessman Zuhir Shamalah and his family. Shamalah took the place of Ahmad Khudri, Hamas' main money-changer who was close to Yahya Sinwar and was thwarted by the IDF in May 2019.

Perhaps it can be said that Israeli pilots are some of the best,we are constantly in a war situation! But ''indiscriminately bomb?'' (indiscriminately bomb = in a random manner; unsystematically, aimlessly??) What do you think we can hit some hospital with 120 dead? You would be on here in a flash!!

"The Palestinians’ immediate and predictable rejection of the Trump peace plan gives Netanyahu some leeway, even though the White House would prefer to maintain the illusion that its proposals are still viable.

Bibi has already pledged that a new government would apply sovereignty to the Israeli communities in Judea and Samaria and to the Jordan Valley. Even some of his opponents are sympathetic to at least parts of this endeavour. The Israeli centre-left isn’t as naive as it used to be about the peace process: it recognises that there isn’t one. However much Israel concedes, the Palestinian authorities believe they can wait until the international community cajoles Jerusalem to concede even more.

Because it does not understand a conflict about which it is obsessed, the international community has encouraged this strategy and in doing so achieved the exact opposite of its goals. The spirit of the Israeli peace camp was not broken at Camp David or Taba or in the bloody outrages of the Second Intifada; Oslo came despite decades of Palestinian intransigence and terror. The Israeli left and the two-state solution was broken at Turtle Bay and Geneva and in a thousand hypocrisies heaped upon a country that is a damn sight daintier about conflict than most of its condemners.

The world uses Israel to work out its own colonial guilt and the Palestinians as proxies for its own righteous victimhood. Few countries — only the United States comes readily to mind — have served as honest brokers of a workable peace. (For doing so, the US has been almost as thoroughly vilified as Israel.) That’s all over now. The Palestinians may yet achieve a state for themselves but it will be nothing like the one the world promised them.

If Netanyahu has his way, the world will have to get used to a new name for swathes of what it currently calls ‘the Occupied Palestinian Territories’: Israel. Bibi may be the king of Israel but if Israelis crowned him, his gaudy diadem was fashioned in foreign ministries and General Assembly votes and vexatious conferences the world over. Bibi Melech UM. Bibi, the UN king."

"The Palestinians may yet achieve a state for themselves but it will be nothing like the one the world promised them, the world will have to get used to a new name for swathes of what it currently calls ‘the Occupied Palestinian Territories’: Israel."

That's all the Palestinian shills in the International Community will have achieved. Thick as mince they are.

Military power backed by heavy outside political influence makes a pretty lethal combination sinkov.

The Palestinians have become pawns in a very odious geopolitical game.

The US, Iran, Turkey, Syria, Russia and Egypt are all complicit in "doing" for the Palestinians, meanwhile the Israelis just play the long game and keep on land grabbing and doing whatever they want. No UN outrage, no sanctions and this BDS malarkey is pointless.

Market demand is more lethal to the BDS cause than a few lefty inspired whinges.

I'm sure the Israelis realised long ago that there could be no rapprochement with Hamas, Iran or any other Iranian sponsored terror organisation, and have proceeded accordingly. I've pointed out on numerous occasions the utter futility of the Iran/Hamas approach but still they persist, and still many in the West continue to encourage them down this dead end. You know the old definition of madness BT, but on and on they go, year after year firing rockets into Israel, too fecking thick to see that each rocket takes them just that little bit further away from where they would like to be. BDS is infantile but it does have some effect, whenever I buy my mejdool dates I always ensure they're from Israel.
