Benjamin Netanyahu demands "revenge" after Hamas returns wrong remains

The remains of four Israelis, two of them the Bibas children, along with their mother, Shiri, and Oded Lifschitz, were to be returned Thursday. All four were kidnapped on October 7, 2023 by Palestinian civilians along with Hamas, and taken hostage in Gaza.

Hamas lied. The body that was supposed to be that of Shiri, was instead the body of an unidentified woman. 

Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu promised "revenge" on Hamas upon discovering what the terror group had done.

"These Hamas monsters also cynically refused to bring back the boys’ mother, Shiri, and sent the body of a Gazan woman instead, in brazen violation of the agreement," Netanyahu said in a statement on Friday.

Remember, Israel promised to release scores of terrorist prisoners in exchange for one Israeli, dead or alive. So Hamas tricked them and even celebrated in the streets when the coffins were marched along in a macabre celebration of the deaths of Jews.

"And as the prime minister of Israel, I vow that I will not rest until the savages who executed our hostages are brought to justice. They do not deserve to walk this earth. Nothing will stop me. Nothing," he added.

It was also revealed that the children did not die in an Israeli airstrike but instead were choked to death and their bodies made to look as if they had died due to Israeli bombs. It's obvious that Hamas and their ilk will do anything to forward their propaganda, and there are plenty of useful idiots in the diaspora who will believe anything negative about Jewish people.

IDF Spokesperson Rear Adm. Daniel Hagari, citing forensic findings and intelligence, confirmed on Friday that Ariel and Kfir Bibas "were murdered by terrorists in cold blood. The terrorists did not shoot the two young boys, they killed them with their own hands. Afterwards, they committed horrific acts to cover up these atrocities."

Hagari said Hamas’ handing over "the body of an anonymous woman" instead of Shiri Bibas was "further evidence of Hamas’ barbaric cruelty."

Ofri Bibas Levy, Yarden Bibas’ sister, however, struck a different chord in a statement released by the Hostages and Missing Families Forum.

"Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu, we did not receive an apology from you in this painful moment. For Ariel and Kfir's sake, and for Yarden's sake, we are not seeking revenge right now. We are asking for Shiri," Levy said in the statement.

I can only imagine the pain Ofri feels about the losses of her family, but to blame Netanyahu is unfair. Israel may have screwed up on Oct, 7th but they are doing all they can, at least from my perspective, to get the hostages home. 

The revelation that Shiri’s body was not returned alongside her sons sparked widespread outrage. Many celebrities, including Doctor Phil, condemned Hamas' ploy and expressed disgust with them.

I could go on by quoting the anger people expressed over the "horrific" actions, and "clear violation" of the ceasefire agreement, but that's only stating the obvious. 

U.S. Envoy for Hostages Adam Boehler warned that if Hamas does not release all the remaining hostages, it will "face total annihilation."

Let's hope he means it. Hamas, Palestinian Islamic Jihad, Hezbollah, and any of those who participated in the killing of Israelis must be destroyed.

Netanyahu also delivered a message to the fallen Israelis whose bodies were returned by Hamas on Thursday.

"Ariel, Kfir and Oded: I am so sorry we couldn't save you from the monsters who did this. We honor your kind and loving souls, so tragically cut down by evil terror," Netanyahu said.

Israel is preparing to receive six living hostages on Saturday, two of whom have been held hostage in Gaza for over a decade. 

We'll see how it turns out. Am Yisrael Chai.

Israel promises "significant response" and "severe consequences" following Iran's missile attack

The Islamic Republic of Iran fired about 200 missiles at Israel and on Tuesday evening the Jewish State promised a FAFO "significant response."

The missile attack apparently killed one person, a Palestinian, who was killed in Judea and Samaria by shrapnel falling to the ground, likely caused by the Iron Dome anti-missile defense response. However, some missiles hit Israeli targets in spite of most having been intercepted.

An Israeli official told CNN that the country had a “significant response” planned for Iran and that the damage Iran has suffered, including to its terrorist proxy groups, is “only a promo” for what Israel has in store for Iran, the world’s leading state sponsor of terrorism.

Israel Defense Forces (IDF) spokesman Rear Adm. Daniel Hagari said that the attack would have "consequences" and that the Jewish State already has plans they are prepared to execute “at the place and time we decide.”

Three U.S. warships positioned in the Mediterranean Sea engaged Iranian ballistic missiles during the attack, a U.S. official said.

Useless Jake Sullivan, a U.S. national security adviser, claimed there would be "consequences--severe consequences--for the attack, and we will work with Israel to make this the case."

But nobody takes Sullivan seriously, just as they don't take Joe Biden's title of President seriously.

Jordan also shot down missiles that were fired at Israel, according to CNN. The Jordanian military said in a statement that its forces have been put “on high alert to confront any attempts that threaten the security and stability of the kingdom.”

“The General Command is closely monitoring the developments occurring in the region and has taken necessary precautionary measures to build and support front-line units on the border fronts to protect the homeland,” a Jordanian official told the network.

If the even more useless than Sullivan, Kamala Harris wins the presidency in November, there's no telling how much aid the U.S. will provide Israel as the current Democratic Party is the most anti-Zionist party we've seen in modern times.

Quds dude, Fatah official droned by IDF strike

They were just a couple of guys riding along in their automobile thinking about how to kill more Israelis when suddenly from above a drone silently fired a missile and ended their dreams. Lebanon media said the drone targeted a senior Fatah member who Israel says smuggled weapons into the West Bank used by Hezbollah to target civilians in Golan.

The other guy, a member of the Iranian Revolutionary Guard Corps (IRGC) Quds force was killed on Wednesday in an IDF drone strike on his car traveling in an affluent neighborhood of Sidon.

According to a report from Lebanon's UNews agency, three people were killed in the attack. One of the dead Jew-haters was identified in Saudi media as Khalil al-Makdah. He was a senior member of the Palestinian Fatah group whom Israel had accused of smuggling weapons to the West Bank. The Hezbollah-affiliated Al Mayadeen channel reported that the Fatah official was the primary target of the attack.

The Israeli strike occurred following Hezbollah's launch of 50 rockets and drones at northern Israel during the early morning hours.

One Israeli man sustained moderate injuries after a direct hit on his home in the Golan Heights.

IDF Spokesperson Rear Admiral Daniel Hagari stated in a post that Hezbollah's attack targeted Katzerin, a city in the Golan, and was an indiscriminate assault on civilians. "Like any country that protects its citizens, we will respond accordingly," Hagari said in a post on X.
Hezbollah's attacks threatened areas further south of the border including on the Sea of Galilee. Lebanese media reported Israeli artillery fire on South Lebanon.

Israel-Hamas War Day 46: Hostage deal or no deal?

Danial Hagari spoke today about the situation with the hostages on this 46th day since the Oct. 7 slaughter of Jews in Israel. 

He warned of being alert to misinformation and only consider reliable information.

Israel is prevailing in the war and continue to expose the tunnels below Al Shifa Hospital. 

Currenly, IDF spokesperson tells of a possible hostage deal with Hamas, but it isn't really trustworthy because Hamassholes cannot be trusted. Supposedly, the hostages will be taken to the Egyptian border and then sent to Israel. 

So far, 390 IDF soldiers have fallen in battle.

IDF reports first use of Iron Sting System in combat that is less costly and highly effective it appears. There have been rocket alerts in Ashkelon and launches have been noted from Lebanon.

The IDF has announced that it has killed the Deputy Commander of Hamas' Al-Qassam Brigades in Lebanon. You remember those guys--Qassem Soleimani was in charge of those terrorists until former President Donald Trump had him blown to smithereens by a drone. 

Currently, we have no clear idea as to the number of hostages who are still alive, if any, so the deal Hamas is supposedly offering must be actualized very cautiously. Hamas is the proverbial scorpion and Israel cannot be the frog.

I believe it's a mistake for any country to give in to the hostage-takers, but it's easy for me to say as I have nobody in my life who is being held by these barbarians. But if you pay off the enemy for  hostages, it will encourage future hostage-taking.

Israel Defense Forces eliminates 3 top Palestinian terrorists in Gaza

The Israel Defense Forces (IDF) made their country a bit safer on Tuesday morning when they eliminated three top Palestinian Jihad terrorist heads in strikes across the Gaza Strip. This comes after several weeks of ongoing skirmishes with the jihadis in the Palestinian enclave.

The IDF said the targets of the operation who were killed were Khalil Bahitini, who commanded the PIJ in north Gaza; Tarek Azaldin, a director of the Judea and Samaria fighting; and Jahed Ahnam, a top member of the terror group's military council. If my math is correct, that would make it 216 brown-eyed virgins waiting in the wings.

The IDF dubbed the campaign “Operation Shield and Arrow,” and Israelis living within 25 miles of Gaza were strongly advised to get near bomb shelters as there will very likely be retaliation, if the jihadis and Rashida Tlaib have their way.

IDF spokesman Brig. Gen. Daniel Hagari explained that the strikes specifically targeted those who were responsible for rocket attacks from Gaza in recent months, along with those responsible for organizing attacks on Israelis, including those in Judea and Samaria. In other words, “[T]hose who endanger Israeli lives, and those who work tirelessly to harm Israel’s security, will not remain unharmed.”

General Hagari noted that 40 IAF aircraft had carried out timed, coordinated strikes, within seconds of each other across three different locations in Gaza.

“At this stage, we achieved our objective, we hit what was needed. If necessary, we will ramp up the attacks. We are prepared for any scenario,” he said. He also explained that hundreds of IAF reservists and others, would be activated.

Israeli Defense Minister Yoav Gallant weighed in shortly afterward, saying: “Any terrorist element that harms Israeli citizens will regret it. We will pursue and catch our enemies.”

Both National Security Minister Itamar Ben-Gvir and opposition leader Yair Lapid, both extended their support of Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu. It's the one thing all Israelis can agree upon who actually live in Israel, especially near the border.

Perhaps it's time to move all of our US politicians who oppose closing our own border to be forced to live in a town along the US-Mexico border.
