There have continued to be outcries of protest from major Western nations, yet no one has been able to actually take any action against Israel for its wanton murder and genocide, which it continues to commit daily.
Listen to the Israeli spokesman below as she tries to extemporize on the spot about the ethnic cleansing Israel intends to carry out on the Gazans heading toward Rafah crossing:
One of the issues with the proposed ceasefire is that Israel wants to exchange a bunch of random Palestinian teenagers they nabbed off the street and erroneously labeled ‘terrorists’. Hamas refuses this, as they want their actual named prisoners to be released in exchange for Israeli hostages. Israel has classically ‘cheated’ by simply kidnapping children off the streets and putting them into perpetual extrajudicial imprisonment for bargaining purposes.
One of the deeper aspects to follow is the economic damage that continues unwinding Israel’s economy.
even the Israeli military is starting to become demoralized and disillusioned, wondering if they can ever truly win.
The article goes on to state that likely far fewer of Hamas have been killed than Israel claims, and also that Hamas can “recruit new people” on the fly—which means even the ones killed could have very well already been replaced.
“We’re having a lot of success inside Gaza. The question is what is the plan for the day after,” said the sergeant. “I don’t think there is any clear idea.”
And Bibi may have very well answered this question recently:
The plan proposes to virtually turn Gaza into a real live concentration and re-education camp, even more so than it already was:
At the same time, Bibi also announced that he will totally resist the creation of any Palestinian state, which means the two-state solution will never come to pass under his rule:
Additionally, there are increased signals that Israel intends to carry out a mass new operation in Rafah, at the Egyptian border, reportedly on Ramadan, March 10th:
However, there remains good reason to believe that the hardline factions do fully intend to carry out the invasion no matter what, but it’s not certain their side will win the power struggle as there are immense pressures from the U.S. and international community to stop the war.
One thing is clear: there is a large amount of internal dissent and opposition.
Netanyahu’s plan has no such exit strategy in mind:
In summary: it seems that Netanyahu is trying to have his cake and eat it too. Ostensibly he wants to ‘root out’ and destroy Hamas, but at the same time fears doing so would force the inevitability of creating a Palestinian state—as there would no longer be any real excuse not to allow it, should Hamas be undeniably eliminated.
In many ways, Israel is a parasitic leech that lives and thrives off of the strategy of tension in the region, collecting huge war chests of annual military “aid” for its eternal protection from the perceived phantom threats it itself foments, instigates, and cultivates. Netanyahu wants to continue playing this long game while reaping all the benefits—but for once, the risks are becoming too grave for Israel’s slavish sponsors.
Also, as a final mention, noteworthy is the fact that if Israel were to go to war against Lebanon in the near future, it could be the final nail in the coffin for Ukraine. Out of the paltry 30,000 or so monthly artillery shells the U.S. currently produces, about 10,000 of them have gone to Israel each month thus far—40k since October. A protracted war against Hezbollah would require massive artillery armaments, and given that Israel is the U.S.’ true golden calf, its surging artillery needs would unquestionably be prioritized over those of Ukraine, leaving the AFU’s provisioning gravely in the lurch.
As a postscript, Israel has shot itself in the foot by virtually declaring itself an enemy of Russia this week, after a provocative harangue by Israel’s unhinged UN Rep, Gilal Erdan:
This is further indication of Israel’s totally oblivious exceptionalism: they believe, even in the foundering position they’re in, that they retain impunity in lashing out in anger at Russia for its perceived support of Palestine. No one has informed Israel that hubris and mania mix like milk and alcohol. Israel little understands the existential danger it’s in, and just who they’re making an enemy of. With every recent blundering, buffoonish step, Israel has brought itself one step closer to the edge of the abyss. - Simplicius
