Are we supposed to feel sorry?
Hamas‘ leader Yahya Sinwar did not expect Israel‘s retaliation to the October 7 attack would be ‘so dangerous’, a friend has said.
Yahya Sinwar’s calculations on the effect of Hamas’ deadly incursion into Israel on Black Satursday ‘didn’t go as planned’, and believed the reaction of the Israelis was ‘uncontrolled, without any justification’, according to Esmat Mansour, the terror leader’s friend.
Really? A violent, unprovoked attack on civilians involving murder, rape and infanticide and he thought the Israelis wouldn’t bring down the wrath of the heavens upon his head? How deluded do you have to be? Was he not paying attention to what happened in 1948 or 1967? The response has been absolutely justified.
Frankly, I hope they take him out, but not too quickly. He deserves to suffer.
Mansour, who was once locked up in an Israeli prison with Sinwar, told Sky News that his terrorist friend’s plan was miscalculated and gave Israel an excuse to unleash hellfire on Hamas’s Gaza stronghold.
Oh dear, how sad, never mind.
Mansour said: ‘He didn’t expect the operation to make things this complicated and to go as far as it did and become this dangerous and (it) gave Israel all the reasons and excuses to break all the rules.’
Israel didn’t break the rules. When faced with an enemy that ignores all the usual rules of engagement, then the gloves are off. It’s just that Israel has the balls to do it and good for them. Bear in mind, that before responding, Israel warned civilians to evacuate and it was Hamas that prevented them from getting out – yet Hamas made an attack deliberately targeting civilians without any warning, so even then Israel can’t quite go all medieval on these vile bastards.
I hope every Hamas scumbag is obliterated in the process.
What you said
The worst possible thing Israel could do right now is ease off. I do think however they could have done more to ease the humanitarian situation which is now getting them into hot water internationally. They told everyone to move south before flattening the north, OK – fine. But they now have an opportunity to set up vast humanitarian camps in the cleared northern areas and take their time in vetting those currently in the south through into those camps, where they should be treated like kings to try and avert the generational problem of anti Israel sentiment. Destroying Hamas is the immediate priority, but if you leave a generation of hate behind it will only come back to bite you.
Since both military and diplomatic approaches have been tried over the years and the Palestinians always respond with hate either way, I think that point might be moot.
Someone should translate ‘FAFO’ into Arabic for him…
I suppose by the reaction of the western world, he would have been justified in thinking Isreal would take no retaliatory action
I guess the usage of terror is finely calibrated. To little terrorist action and ‘the cause’ will not benefit (which includes financial support). Too much and the hammer comes down. And the key point is that the too little/too much tipping point is in the hands of those being terrorised.
Are fine judgement. Not a thing Palestinians are very good at in such circumstances, a bit like the German Nazi high command.
The plan seems pretty clear. Make Gaza completely uninhabitable, drive all its occupants southwards, at which point Egypt will be ‘encouraged’ to accept them all, thus solving the Gaza problem permanently. Repeat with the West Bank later, job done.
That’s when happens when you poke a sleeping lion hard enough.
Twat probably listened to the advice of some sky fairy who told him it was going to succeed by divine intervention.
