Hamas threatens to kill hostages if IDF tries to rescue them

In October 2011, Israel took part in a prisoner exchange in which they released 1,027 prisoners in exchange for one Israeli soldier, Gilad Shalit. Since his release and not counting October 7, 2023, hundreds Israelis have been killed and injured in various Jew-hatred attacks by Hamas, Palestinian Islamic Jihad, or individual Palestinian terrorists created by the political environment of the Palestinian Authority who uses a "pay to slay" program to encourage attacks on Jews. Examples are the knife, vehicle and shootings during the 2015 - 2016 "Stabbing Intifada," along with many rocket and mortar attacks emanating from Gaza.

Of course, the number of Israeli dead has soared after the October 7 attack. On that day, about 1,200 Israelis, mostly Jews, were killed and 253 were kidnapped. The victims were of all ages, including babies, women and children. They were mutilated, burned, beheaded, raped, and tortured by these sick terrorists.

And now we know that Hamas killed the most recent recovered bodies of those six individuals. They were shot several times in the head at close range as the IDF was getting close to their location.

Initially, Hamas claimed that hostages died as a result of IDF airstrikes. This was a lie. Now they admit that they have been killing hostages and will continue to do so if the IDF comes to rescue them. Still, the killers refuse to take responsibility of their actions, blaming Israel for their barbarism and morons in the West agree with this twisted logic.

In a Telegram post, the spokesperson for Hamas’ armed wing, the al-Qassam Brigades, Abu Obaida wrote, “Netanyahu and the occupation army alone bear full responsibility for the deaths of the prisoners. They deliberately obstructed any prisoner exchange deal for their own narrow interests, and intentionally killed dozens of prisoners through direct airstrikes.”

 No Abu--that's on you and your fellow scumcrumpets.

It's easy for anyone, including me, who doesn't have a loved one in Hamas or Gaza Arab captivity to say the IDF needs to press on. But what has capitulation gotten Israel? Here's what it got: delay. 

It's the old feed the alligator and hope it eats you last.

I know a lot of people will disagree with me here, but I believe Israel needs to win and to do so they need to finish the job of destroying Hamas. Of course they also need a plan for the day after and that might mean taking some sort or military control over Gaza, some kind of monitoring. Without Hamas and the PIJ, Israel stands a chance at surviving. But allowing Hamas to call the shots is suicide because they have promised to attack Israel "ten thousand times" if that's what it takes to destroy the Jewish State.

Israel does not need another Gilad Shalit situation. Israel needs to destroy Hamas, kill Sinwar and those who serve him. The only thing Hamas and their ilk understand is strength.

Am Yisrael Chai!

Hamas prisoners are going to be a problem for Israel

Israel agreed to a temporary cease-fire for a hostage deal that is to take place on Thursday morning. It's likely that Hamas hasn't agreed to not kill Jews wherever they find them, because that's kind of what their take on Islam tells them to do as they take their scripture literally.

The deal is for Israel to exchange three female Palestinian prisoners for every one woman or child Hamas releases from their clutches somewhere in the Gaza Strip. So Israel will release 150 wannabe terrorists, and Hamas will release 50 prisoners, mostly women and children. It's believed that three Americans are among those that are to be freed.

The difference is, the Israeli women and children being released have done nothing to merit their being kidnapped, but the women being held by Israel, while not being successful at killing Jews, have given it "the old mosque try." They have been imprisoned for attempted murder and terrorism against Israeli civilians and IDF personnel.

The list of the 150 released prisoners just completely debunked the propaganda that Israel arrested innocent Palestinian women and children who "just threw stones." They were as innocent as Nazis but not as adept at murder on the first try.

The Palestinians who are to be released in this hostage deal, are convicted terrorists serving time for having attempted to murder Jews.

The Israelis who will be freed are innocent civilians being held hostage by terrorists.

There is no equivalence. None.— Avi Mayer אבי מאיר (@AviMayer) November 21, 2023

It's another garbage deal Israel is willing to take because they value life. According to the Jerusalem Post, a number of family members of Israeli hostages actually oppose any deal the requires exchanging terrorists for their loved ones:

Bereaved families and survivors of Hamas's October 7 attack have issued a statement on Tuesday stating their opposition to a hostage deal that would include the release of terrorists in a prisoner exchange.

"We know and warn that any terrorist who is released now will return and cause harm in the future. In the Gilad Shalit deal, the perpetrators of the October 7 massacre were released, and there is no reason why the release of the terrorists should be any different this time."

So the question is whether Israel is making the right choice. Remember, in the Gilad Shalit deal, Israel released 1,000 prisoners for one Israeli soldier. While that says volumes about the moral differences between Israel and Hamas, it also points to a frustrating scenario in which Hamas knows the Israelis will get a crappy deal while they get their terrorists back in action.

Hamasshole leader in hiding, fears Israel will assassinate him

Hamasshole military chief Yahya Sinwar has gone and done a Ghani--he's in hiding because he fears that he will be sent to his 72 virgins by Israeli "travel agents" also known as the IDF. The scumcrumpet hasn't been seen in public for a few days and is nowhere to be found.

[H/T TPS]

Hamas has called for more rioting along the border fence and they have been sending arson party balloons at southern Israeli communities. But while the brave, albeit evil and crazy Palestinians put it all on the line and are willing to risk life and limb to kill Jews, Sinwar is too scared to join in on the terrorism because he is a coward who sends others out to fight while he hides.

Last week, the terror group encouraged Gazans to charge the Israeli border fence in violent protests. Sadly, an Israeli Border Police officer was shot in the head at point blank range.

Sinwar had been sentenced to four consecutive life terms in 1988. He was the mastermind of the abduction and murder of two Israeli soldiers, and had also had a number of Palestinians killed who were suspected of collaborating with Israel. 

But in 2011 there was the Gilad Shalit prison exchange and Sinwar was freed. Due to his terrorist expertise, he was made the Hamasshole military strategist, probably to the delight of Rep. Rashida Tlaib (D-MI).

While Sinwar previously stayed out of the spotlight, he gained the public's attention during Operation Guardian of the Walls after Israel carried out an airstrike on his home. Sadly, Sinwar wasn't home at the time, but held a press conference in which he dared Israel's defense minister to assassinate him with the 60 minutes in which he spoke.

“Israel…intentionally bombs and kills our women and children,” Sinwar claimed in a lie to Vice News in June 2021. “They do it on purpose.”  

Actually, it's Hamas who randomly targets Israelis, firing rockets from apartment buildings, mosques and schools in Gaza hoping to kill and destroy whatever they can in Israel. 

Israel, on the other hand, does all they can to minimize targeting civilians, and still the legacy media is biased against them.

Hamas’ firing of rockets at Israeli civilian communities, he lied, is solely due to the fact that the terror group does not possess precision-guided missiles. 

Nor do they have precision-guided arson balloons.

3 Israeli Teens Found Murdered and Some People Try Justifying It

Susan Abulhawa wrote about the 3 teens who were kidnapped and murdered on June 12th, by some Jew-haters. Her opinion piece appears in The Hindu

The teens were found in a shallow grave in Halhed. It's obvious from where they were abducted that these kids were Jews because the community of Gush Etzion, where they were taken, is a Jewish colony in the West Bank, and besides, these teens wore yarmulkes, or Jewish skullcaps.

Abulhawa described the repercussion brought on by Israel for the kidnappings as a situation where the Israelis "has besieged the 4 million Palestinians who already live under its thumb, storming through towns, ransacking homes and civil institutions, conducting night raids on families, stealing property, kidnapping, injuring, and killing."

She also wrote that Benjamin Netanyahu claims Hamas is responsible for the killings, but said that there is no evidence for this. Of course, Ms. Abulhawa produced no evidence for her anti-Zionist claims, but I'm certain there are plenty of anti-Semitic, pro-Palestinian Muslims who don't really care about evidence. Islam has played the victim for 1400 of their ongoing savagery, so this time is no different. 

When Hamas rockets fall indiscriminately into Israel and kill children, women and other civilians, Palestinians celebrate by handing out sweets. When these 3 innocent teens were taken and killed, Palestinians handed out sweets.

The Koran or Islamic "holy book" refers to Jews and Christians as apes and pigs, and is loaded with anti-Jewish rants. Many extreme Muslims really believe that Jews are not fit to live.

Abulhawa writes, "Thus far, over 570 Palestinians have been kidnapped and imprisoned, most notably a (sic) Samer Issawi, the Palestinian who went on a 266-day hunger strike in protest of a previous arbitrary detention."

You might remember Samer Issawi. He was first arrested on April 15, 2002 by the Israeli army in Operation Defensive Shield during the Second Intifada. Issawi was affiliated with the Democratic Front for the Liberation of Palestine and was alleged to manufacture and distribute pipe bombs and to have fired them indiscriminately at Israeli citizens.

Issawi was convicted of being a member of an illegal [terrorist] organization, possession of explosives, and attempted murder. He was sentenced to 26 years in prison but was released in 2011 along with 1027 other Palestinian prisoners as part of an Egypt-brokered deal between Hamas and the Israeli government for the return of a single Israeli soldier, Gilad Shalit. You see, for Israel, one soldier is worth over a thousand terrorists. The deal may be crazy because it encourages more kidnappings, but this is how the Israelis think.

Back in July of 2012, Issawi was re-arrested for violating terms of his release--he left Jerusalem and entered the West Bank. He was convicted and given 8 months to serve, where he could have been given the remainder of his 26 years for his original sentence.

So Abulhawa made light of Issawi, making him sound like a Palestinian folk-hero, which he might be since he enjoys killing Jews. But for Susan Abulhawa to somehow think she can justify the killing of 3 teens in unconscionable and clearly anti-Semitic.

But Abulhawa has an interesting background that might, in part, explain her feelings about Israel, the Jews, and these murdered kids.

Her parents were born in Jerusalem and became refugees from the 1967 war. At the time, her mother was studying in Germany and her father was expelled from Jerusalem "at gunpoint," she says. Her parents reunited in Jordan and moved to Kuwait where Abulhawa was born in 1970. 

Her parents soon separated and she was sent to live with family members in Jordan and Kuwait. At the age of 10, she ended up in an orphanage, and soon came to the USA where, at age 13, she was in foster care in North Carolina.

She is well-educated and studied neuroscience but left it for journalism. In 2006, she wrote a book entitled, "The Scar of David." 

In 2013 she declined an Al Jazeera invitation to discuss the Israel-Palestine issue because 'it frankly pains me that you would conceive of such a forum." She was referring to the fact that Israelis would actually be represented on the panel and she wanted nothing to do with that. This was in spite of the fact that some of the Israelis in question sided with the Palestinians. The fact that they were Jewish, turned her off.

I have to agree with Pamela Geller when she said (and I paraphrase) "When there is  a war between civilized man and savages, side with the civilized man."
