Political Thread in memory of David Reid. (R.I.P.)

Then todays news out of Israel, reads :
Upper Galilee comes under rocket attack for the first time in three and a half months; no injuries were reported after aerial defenses intercepted the rockets; IDF responds with artillery fire. Is the reason its winter and too cold to go out firing rockets ?

Under the November ceasefire deal, Hezbollah was to have no weapons in southern Lebanon, Israeli troops were to withdraw from the region, and Lebanese army troops were to deploy into the area.

Is it again the U N soldiers can not control Southern Lebanon, ( Is a U N soldier say from Senegal going to risk his life in Lebanon?) Winter is passing and the those little kids will be coming out with their newly acquired toys again. ''The Iranian regime spends hundreds of millions of dollars each year on funding and arming the Hezbollah terror group. Iran has attempted to transfer weapons to Hezbollah in Lebanon by air, over land and at sea. This is how Iran arms Hezbollah and gets their weapons from Iran to Lebanon:

You can run but you can't hide. Another one bites the dust.

"Israeli strike at Gaza hospital kills senior Hamas leader. Ismail Barhoum is the latest Hamas official to be killed since Israel resumed its ground offensive."

"An Israeli airstrike on a hospital in Gaza killed five people, including a senior Hamas leader, in a targeted attack on Sunday. The strike hit the surgery department at Nasser Hospital in Khan Younis, the Gaza Health Ministry said. Israel’s defence minister, Israel Katz, said the target was Ismail Barhoum, a member of Hamas’ political office, and the terror group confirmed he was killed in the attack. Barhoum was being treated at the hospital for wounds sustained in a previous attack, Hamas’ Al-Aqsa TV reported. The Israeli military said its attack followed extensive intelligence and used precise munitions to minimise harm at the site. Another leader in Hamas, Salah Al-Bardawil was killed in a separate strike in Khan Younis, Hamas said earlier. The Israeli military confirmed it had killed Al-Bardawil on Saturday. Both Al-Bardawil and Barhoum were members of the 19-member Hamas political office, 11 of whom have been killed since the start of the war in late 2023, according to Hamas sources."

it beggars belief that hospitals are allowing hamas to use them as shelters, it's putting the red cross and the red crescent into non survivable situations.

A senior UK government minister has condemned Israeli attacks against Palestinians that “cannot be justified as self-defence”, warning: “It has got to stop.”

Speaking a week after Israel shattered a two-month ceasefire in Gaza with some of its deadliest strikes since the early months of the war, the UK health secretary Wes Streeting said he found Israel’s decision to do so “soul-destroying”.

Gaza health authorities say nearly 700 people – mostly women and children – have been killed in the past week, with the reported Palestinian death toll now surpassing 50,000 since the war was sparked by Hamas’s cross-border attack on 7 October 2023.

I do not think there is nothing else to do, but take it for granted, when guns are pointing at you, you have no choice. Never gamble / flirt with Hamas, they have no moral code. ( Do ,or be shot?)

I've seen a few Israelis saying that when their enemies, like Iran, Hamas, Hezbollah etc, say they intend to annihilate Israel and all the Jews therein, they believe them.............................and act accordingly.

This was always the end game. It's reported IDF snipers are now targeting kids. B@stards.

JERUSALEM (Reuters) - Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu repeated threats on Wednesday to seize territory in the Gaza strip if Hamas failed to release the remaining hostages it still holds.

"The more Hamas continues in its refusal to release our hostages, the more powerful the repression we exert will be," Netanyahu told a hearing in parliament, which was occasionally interrupted by shouting from opposition members.

"This includes seizing territory and it includes other things," he said.

I can empathise with Mr Streeting, I found the Hamas decision not to release the remaining hostages "soul-destroying".

I like the story of the Al Jazeera hack who was also involved with Hamas, he put up a video of a huge protest march in Gaza claiming it was against the Israeli incursion. Unfortunately for him it didn't take long for an Arabic speaker to point out that what the marchers were actually chanting were anti-Hamas slogans, they'd had enough of the death and destruction Hamas had caused and wanted them out of Gaza. Realising he'd been rumbled he immediately took the video down, but it was too late, the IDF had spotted this propaganda video and put him on their wanted list. Now he's in hiding, another dead man walking.

Are you sleeping under a Rock?
I just don't know how bad it has to get before the selfish people in the world actually get moved enough to do something about the genocide happening in Gaza.
It cannot get any worse! it is bloody horrific! What you see on the news is NOTHING compared to the reality on the ground.
It is a butchers field in Gaza right now and most of it is reaped upon the children. If that isn't enough to invoke anyone into action then I say they may as well be a part of Israel's slaughter squad, because there 'silence' is another bullet heading straight through the next childs head. And that is fact.
Wake up!
Tomorrow 'Will be to late!'
