Let’s be very very clear. This was a surgical strike on their apartment. No other
unit was struck. Israel knew he was not home & knew exactly who was in the

there is some truth to that...mostly though, the US is supplying Israel weapons to protect itself from future attacks...i mentioned in a previous posts that most of the recent weapon deals are not going to be delivered until at least 2026...so not for gaza actions...you have a lot of chutzpah to think you know what it going over there...you get bits and bobs of info, most of it highly spun and unreliable...i do think the biden administration is doing what it can to secure a cease fire and the return of the hostages...

Subject: Re: hint, the US is supplying Israel with weapons for its genocide


Yeah, and there are a lot of civilians, women,
children, hospitals in Israel that did not vote for
genocide, either...and many in Israel want Netanyahu
gone as well.

You remove their defenses, they'll be gone in weeks and
you'll have a new genocide on your hands.

I'm not against removing "offensive" weapons. I do have
an issue removing defenses weapons for all the
civilians in the cross fire of all those who wish to
destroy Israel all together.

They need a regime change..by their people would be
best. The "government" of Israel needs a total
direction change or, what they are doing to gaza, will
be done to them as well.

I don't see a lot of difference between either Hamas or
Netanayu and his regime.

The civilians are paying (or will) for both their
crimes.

Netanyahu had a right to defend Israel, but he's gone
far beyond that.

In our chats just after Oct 7th attack, I think
everyone knew what was going to happen. Hamas knew it
too. They offered up their women and children as
sacrifice to "their" cause knowing they could hide.

How about this...we remove all the civilians and put
Hamas and Netanyahu and his right-wing cronies in a
room and let THEM fight it out and leave their people
out of it.

I do not like what is happening to the Palestinian
people. I also do not want to sacrifice civilian
Israeli children, either.

Iran, Houthis, Hamas and many others with Russia and
other players funding them, would wipe level Israel and
all the innocents if we remove defensive weapons.

Two genocides are not better than one.

Let's keep working on getting the one stopped--or
getting innocents out of there, but don't stop
"defensive" measures of Israel to make it worse.

what he isn’t saying is that the future deliveries are to replenish their

with damned horrific consequences. the us never expected israel to fire

I distinctly recall reading repeatedly beginning many months ago that the US
put NO conditions on how Israel used weapons we supplied them. We also
said repeatedly we wouldn't investigate how they used those weapons - that it
was Israel's discretion and up to Israel to investigate any alleged abuses. The
US has continually avoided assuming any responsibility for the war crimes, for
the genocide being waged. We are and have been 100% complicit in Israel's
terrorism and genocide. We've helped to literally destroy Gaza beyond repair.
And Kamala Harris shows no indication of changing that policy of complicity.

Ceasefire would be a start. I note you complain when
Israel won't sign, but not Hamas.

A two state solution is favored by many worldwide. Most
here.

Peace cannot happen without ceasefire and hostage
return.

Barring that, Hamas has to be eliminated or there is no
peace by their own admission. Hamas made their deal
with the devil and they traffic in Palestinian &
Israeli bodies to keep their Iranian, et al., backers
happy. No deal, no return of hostages and the misery

What we know about the assassination of Hamas political leader Ismail Haniyeh

Israeli hostage relative on her ‘worst fear’ after assassination of Hamas political
leader

CNN

The assassination of Hamas political leader Ismail Haniyeh in the Iranian capital
Tehran has rocked the Middle East, threatening to further destabilize the region
and jeopardize ceasefire negotiations between Israel and Hamas over the war
in Gaza.

The attack on Haniyeh came in the early hours of Wednesday morning, with
Hamas pointing the finger at Israel – which has so far declined to comment.

All eyes will now focus on two key questions. What happens to Gaza hostage
and ceasefire negotiations, given Haniyeh headed up the group’s political
operations from overseas and acted as a key interlocuter with international
mediators? And will this strike inside Iran prove to be the catalyst for a potential
full-blown regional war?

Here’s what we know so far.

What happened?
Haniyeh had been in Tehran for the inauguration of Iranian President Masoud
Pezeshkian, and was staying in a residence for veterans in the north of the city,
state-affiliated news outlet Fars reported.

Haniyeh was hit directly by a rocket in the room in which he was staying, Hamas
spokesperson and deputy head Khalil Al-Hayya said at a news conference in
Tehran. He said Israel would “pay the price” for the “heinous crime.”


Earlier, Iranian state media IRNA reported that an “airborne guided projectile”
had targeted the building at around 2 a.m. local time.

IRNA said Haniyeh’s bodyguard was also killed, and that further investigations
are underway to determine the details of the operation and the position from
where the projectile was fired.

Shortly afterward, Hamas decried what it called a “Zionist strike” and a “grave
escalation” in its decades long conflict with Israel.

One Hamas official said the group is “ready to pay various prices” and that the
“moment of truth has come,” adding: “This assassination will not achieve the
goals of the occupation and will not push Hamas to surrender.”

When asked for comment, Israel’s military said it “doesn’t respond to reports in
the foreign media.”

Presidency Office/AP
Who was Haniyeh?
Haniyeh, 62, was born in a refugee camp near Gaza City, and joined Hamas in
the late 1980s during the First Intifada, or uprising. As Hamas grew in power,
Haniyeh rose through the ranks – being appointed part of a secret “collective
leadership” in 2004.

He became political chief of Hamas in 2017. The following year, he was named
a “specially designated global terrorist” by the United States.

Despite that designation – and unlike Hamas’ military leadership – Haniyeh
travelled globally, meeting with world figures as the political head of the
organization.

During the war with Israel in Gaza he has taken a central role in hostage and
ceasefire talks between Israel and Hamas.

Earlier this spring, he said Hamas was willing to strike a deal – but it would
require Israel withdrawing from Gaza and a guarantee to cease fighting in the
enclave permanently, demands that Israel has called “unacceptable.”


How does this impact ceasefire talks?
Haniyeh was in touch with mediators in Qatar and Egypt as recently as early
July. Those talks now hang in the balance, despite some hope earlier this
month that they were nearing a framework agreement.

A source with knowledge of the negotiations told CNN Wednesday that
Haniyeh’s death could “complicate mediation talks.” The source said Haniyeh
was “instrumental” in getting certain breakthroughs in negotiations and – along
with the Hamas military leader in Gaza, Yahya Sinwar – was a “key decision
maker.”

“How can mediation succeed when one party assassinates the negotiator on
other side?” Qatar’s Prime Minister Mohammed bin Abdulrahman Al-Thani, a
mediator on the talks, posted on X on Wednesday. Qatar’s capital, Doha, also
hosts the main Hamas political bureau. “Peace needs serious partners & a
global stance against the disregard for human life,” Al-Thani wrote.

Haniyeh’s death “will have significant influence on those negotiations,” CNN
Political and Foreign Policy Analyst Barak Ravid said on Wednesday.

In a statement after the strike, the Hostages and Missing Families Forum urged
the Israeli government “to decisively advance negotiations,” to secure the
release of the hostages who have been held in Gaza since the October 7 attack
on Israel.

“While military operations over the past 10 months have achieved significant
security gains, true achievement can only be realized with the release of all 115
hostages still in captivity,” it said.

“The deal proposed by the Israeli government and supported by President
Biden represents the only viable path to secure their freedom, allowing the
living to begin rehabilitation and the murdered to receive proper burial.”



The assassination of Hamas' political leader deepens fears of an all-out war in
the Middle East
03:58 - Source: CNN
What has the world said?
Leaders from around the region have weighed in, with some condemning the
killing and voicing alarm about the potential fallout.

Palestinian leaders, including the Palestinian president and prime minister –
who come from factions that have deep historical rivalries with Hamas – have
condemned the killing and called for Palestinian “national unity.”

The White House has seen the reports of Haniyeh’s killing, a spokesperson
said, but declined to immediately comment further. US Defense Secretary Lloyd
Austin said he does not think war in the Middle East is inevitable, but that the
US would help defend Israel if it were attacked.

Leaders from Russia and Turkey have both decried the assassination, warning it
would lead to larger conflicts in the region.

Other Iran-backed militant groups have also voiced sympathy – including
Hezbollah, based in Lebanon, and the Houthis in Yemen.

Two reported killings, in quick succession
News of Haniyeh’s killing came just hours after Israel said it had killed
Hezbollah’s most senior military official, Fu’ad Shukr, in a drone strike in Beirut,
Lebanon.

People gather near a site hit by what security sources said was a strike on the
southern suburbs of Beirut, Lebanon, on July 30, 2024.
RELATED ARTICLE
Israel says its Beirut strike killed Hezbollah’s top military commander, who it
blames for Golan Heights attack
The group has not confirmed Shukr’s death, but said on Wednesday he “was
present” at the time of the strike.

If true, Shukr would be the most high-ranking Hezbollah official to have been
assassinated since 2016 when Mustafa Badreddine, the group’s top
commander at the time, was killed in Syria.

Whatever the fate of Shukr, Wednesday’s strike marked the most serious Israeli
escalation since confrontations between Hezbollah and Israel began on
October 8.

your 1st article

how is Hamas dropping demand for full ceasefire a bad thing for Israel's side?
this supports my claim, not yours.

Hamas says ceasefire must be based on group’s July response
Excerpt

“Hamas has said a ceasefire plan for Gaza must be based on where talks were
a month and a half ago rather than any new rounds of negotiations.

In a statement on Sunday night, the group called on mediators “to present a
plan to implement what was agreed upon by the movement on July 2, 2024,
based on [President Joe] Biden's vision and the UN Security Council
resolution”.

On 2 July, Hamas issued its response to the outline ceasefire plan announced
by Mr Biden on 30 May.

The details of Hamas’s response have not been made public but the group
is understood to have dropped a demand for a full ceasefire at the outset rather
than an initial six-week pause put forward by the president.


Negotiations resumed a week later, with Hamas accusing Israel of introducing
new conditions.

Hamas sources told the BBC that the introduction of the new conditions - that
displaced Palestinians should be screened as they return to the north of Gaza,
as well as the question of control of the Philadelphi corridor that borders Egypt
- have been sticking points.

It has also been widely reported in the Israeli press that these new
demands were made by Israel's Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu, and that
they have caused friction with his negotiating team.”

Hamas ready to drop key demand in truce and hostage deal ... - CNN

https://www.cnn.com/2024/07/06/middleeast/hamas-ceasefire-deal-
compromise-official-says-intl/index.html
Excerpt

“CNN  — 
Hamas is ready to reconsider its insistence that Israel commit to a permanent
ceasefire in Gaza before signing an agreement that would usher in a temporary
truce and begin a process to release hostages still held in Gaza, a senior Hamas
official confirmed to CNN.

The change in Hamas’ position was first reported by Reuters, and comes amid
intensified efforts towards reaching an agreement. The group has long
demanded Israel agree to a permanent ceasefire before signing any deal, terms
Israel sees as unacceptable. The apparent willingness to compromise raises
the possibility a deal could be reached.

Hamas would instead accept that talks on reaching a permanent ceasefire
would take place throughout the first phase of any deal, which would last six
weeks, the official told CNN.”

Bopp's 3rd article

This article supports my claim, that Netanyahu keeps changing the conditions
for a ceasefire. That’s what Hamas is protesting here. It clearly says Hamas
agreed to the US proposal:

excerpt

https://www.abc.net.au/news/2024-08-19/hamas-rejects-gaza-ceasefire-
deal-blaming-netanyahu-new-obstacle/104240942

Hamas rejects Gaza ceasefire deal, blaming Netanyahu for setting new
'obstacles'

Hamas rejects Gaza ceasefire proposal, accuses US of lying.
In short:

Hamas has rejected the latest ceasefire proposal, saying it ignored key
demands and accused the Israeli prime minister of setting new conditions that
it could not accept.

Hamas has always opposed proposals which allowed a continuing Israeli
presence inside Gaza among other provisions it says are biased towards Israel.


What's next?
Iran had indicated it would withhold its retaliatory attack if Israel agreed to a
ceasefire deal.

The Palestinian militant group Hamas has rejected the latest proposal for a
ceasefire in Gaza, saying it was biased towards Israel.

The group had been considering a bridging proposal put forward by the United
States, Egypt and Qatar after talks between mediators and Israeli officials last
week.

Hamas officials did not attend but were briefed on the talks.

Now the group says the proposal includes new conditions put forward by Israel
that it cannot accept.

"After being briefed by the mediators about what happened in the last
round of talks in Doha, we once again came to the conclusion that (Israeli Prime
Minister Benjamin) Netanyahu is still putting obstacles in the way of reaching
an agreement and is setting new conditions and demands with the aim of
undermining the mediators' efforts and prolonging the war," it said in a
statement.

Hamas has always opposed a continuing Israeli presence inside Gaza, ongoing
Israeli control of the Egyptian border and will not agree to a ceasefire that is not
permanent.


(SEE PREVIOUS ARTICLE IN WHICH HAMAS
CONCEDES DEMAND FOR PERMANENT CEASEFIRE.)


It said the new proposal ignored those key demands.

"He (Netanyahu) also set new conditions in the prisoner exchange file, and
backed down from others, which all prevent the completion of the exchange
deal," it said.

"We hold Netanyahu fully responsible for the failure of the mediators' efforts,
the obstruction of reaching an agreement, and full responsible for the lives of
his prisoners, who are exposed to the same danger that our people are
exposed to due to his continued aggression and systematic targeting of all
aspects of life in the Gaza Strip."

Mr Netanyahu had earlier told an Israeli cabinet meeting Hamas was blocking a
deal.

"We are holding very complex negotiations in which the other side is a
murderous terrorist organisation that is unbridled and obstinate," he said.
"There are things we can be flexible on and there are things that we cannot be
flexible on, which we will insist on. We know how to distinguish between the
two very well.””

"that
displaced Palestinians should be screened as they
return to the north of Gaza,
as well as the question of control of the Philadelphi
corridor that borders Egypt
- have been sticking points."

Let me see, you expect Israel to let terrorist agents
go into a secured area without being screened? Hell
no. That's not an unreasonable demand to screen them,
and probably wasn't necessary before the population
wasn't being moved to North Gaza in thousands. Control
of the corridor is also not unreasonable since the plan
is for moving materiale that hopefully would not
include weapons, drones or missiles like the MANY
thousands lobbed at Israel.

Only, ONLY a government intent on continued fighting
would object.

So, yeah, Israel wouldn't sign, they aren't that
stupid.

How prejudiced/propagandized are you that you think
those demands are unreasonable?

And if Hamas thought so much of that agreement why
didn't they sign it in July?

Their objections are just buying time for ... who ?
Not Palestinians.

Jerusalem CNN  — 
Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu has reversed on a key Israeli
concession in ceasefire negotiations,
demanding that armed men be
barred from returning to northern Gaza during an eventual ceasefire, an Israeli
source familiar with the talks told CNN.
Israel had previously agreed to allow Palestinians unrestricted access to
northern Gaza during an eventual ceasefire, but the prime minister told his
negotiating team this week to demand that armed men be barred from northern
Gaza as part of any ceasefire and hostage deal, the source said.

Hiding weapons in the kitchen?

Where was the target? Why is this dragging out?

Why hasn't Sinwar surrendered and stopped this
slaughter? Or just agreed to a ceasefire?

Oh, right. 100,000 not too many. 50,000 to go yet

No it doesn't mean she was in Hamas.

It doesn't mean she wasn't.

These are hard times and I am not privy to her choices.
This event is a poster child for Hamas, though.

And a few more to tally toward the Hamas 100,000. Too
bad they don't see it as an impetus to ceasefire. Had
they signed the one last week those babies would still
be alive.

"why would you accept eternal subjugation?"

To live, for my neighbor to live. As pro-life as you
are, I'm surprised that you encourage Hamas, who have
lost none to starvation, yet seem so delighted to lose
more innocents in order to please their generals in
Iran. They had hundreds of millions invested around
the world, and lived in luxury in Qatar while their
people suffered under oppressive policies.

These are the people who have promoted war and genocide
of Israelis for fifty years. Have prohibited free
commerce and filled schools with propaganda of hate,
presented their population with inadequate healthcare
and insisted 80% of the population depend on world
generosity for necessities, all while stamping out
violently any hint of opposition.

They fight with Iranian bought & manufactured weapons
and hide behind the suffering, under the sick, in the
food stores. They promise to kill any Palestinians
that take food from any but their hand.

Who knows what Israel or any country would be to a
population that laid down their arms?

After all, Texas was a territory taken by war.

But to your question, closer to accuracy, the Lakota
can give you a better answer than even the Hispanic
Texicans.
