An expert on Israel said that if the IDF went too hard in Gaza, the Arabs in Israel could rebel and then we have a civil war in Israel.

The USA should give Hamas 24 hours to release Americans.
If they don't? Give them a taste of what Baghdad went through!
Pretty sure the Ford could do that.
All Aid to foreign countries with the slightest connection to Hamas should be cut off as of now.

Rishi Sunak has pledged to provide diplomatic, intelligence or security support to Israel if requested after attacks by Hamas, as he prepared to chair an emergency meeting of Cobra.

No 10 said the UK stood “poised” to help Israel militarily if it asked for assistance and is not ruling out evacuating some British citizens from affected areas, saying keeping them safe was the “utmost priority”.

Sunak will chair a meeting of Cobra on Monday afternoon, which is convened to manage the UK’s response to disasters, as the death toll continues to rise after Hamas’s surprise attack and hostage-taking, and Israel’s subsequent bombardment of Gaza. At least 700 people have been killed in Israel and more than 400 have been killed in Gaza.

I've an awful feeling Israel will consider the loss of a hundred or so hostages acceptable this time round, especially when you consider there is a far right element in the present coalition government.

Further to the above and just released.

Quote:
Hamas' armed wing said on Monday it will begin executing an Israeli civilian captive in return for any new Israeli bombing of civilian houses without pre-warning.

Hamas armed wing spokesman Abu Obaida said they have been acting in accordance with Islamic instructions by keeping the Israeli captives safe and sound.

He blamed the intended move on Israel's stepped-up bombing and killing of civilians inside their homes in air strikes without warning them.

Nothing new here: https://teachinghistory.org/history-...istorian/22693
Quote:
After noting that 20 American POWs died as a result of the atomic bomb dropped on Hiroshima, according to Japanese military commanders, and that between one and three American prisoners may have been killed by the Japanese after the bombing, Richard B. Frank states, “The average number of Allied prisoners of war or civilian internees who died each day of the effects of captivity at the hands of the Japanese easily doubled this toll.”

In a radio broadcast on the night of August 9, 1945, hours after the U.S. dropped the second atomic bomb on Japan, President Harry S. Truman linked the use of the bomb to the treatment by the Japanese of American prisoners of war: “Having found the bomb we have used it. We have used it against those who attacked us without warning at Pearl Harbor, against those who have starved and beaten and executed American prisoners of war, against those who have abandoned all pretense of obeying international laws of warfare. We have used it in order to shorten the agony of war, in order to save the lives of thousands and thousands of young Americans.” In a letter two days later, Truman wrote, “nobody is more disturbed over the use of Atomic bombs than I am, but I was greatly disturbed by the unwarranted attack by the Japanese on Pearl Harbor and their murder of our prisoners of war.”
https://www.wgbh.org/culture/2022-10...ed-in-new-book 8 more were killed at Nagasaki in the the 2 POW camps located there
Quote:
in the camp that was just over a mile from the detonation point, they were really lucky. There were nearly 200 prisoners there and only eight of them were killed because they were mainly inside buildings. And outside where, in the open air as it were, ordinary Japanese civilians on the same radius from the detonation point died in very large numbers. So they're extremely lucky.

The second camp, which is actually where the Americans were, was about 4 or 5 miles away from the detonation point. They lost all the windows, roofs were blown off, they were blown off their feet. But they survived. And the bomb has actually been dropped not at the designated target, because they were running out of fuel. And if they'd have dropped it where it should have been dropped, then that second camp, the one with the Americans in it, would have been destroyed.

Netanhayu now says over 900 Israeli got killed.

Israel has a population of short of 9.5 million.

Germany has a population of I think around 84 million, the US around 325 million.

What would these governments say and do if say 8500 Germans or 34,000 Americans got killed in such an attack?

Germany would talk a lot and do little because it cannot.

America would talk the talk and then walk the walk and take revenge.

Whatever the Israelis are up to do, it is not up to anybody to criticise them.

Does anyone know about that BBC film production (war) in Aleppo area around 2020/1, some say it was a big production done on the quiet.

Ladies and Gentlemen, we re looking at the same MO as Ukraine, implemented by the same people. It's a trap to draw in all mercs and fundementalists and to blast the sh.t out of them, as done in the ukraine. In doing so armies for hire (and useless tic-tok wokes high on war selfies) are in future not available for more 3-letter agency nonsense around the world.

https://www.bitchute.com/video/reWEmMgskaHc/
If the above vid is anything to go by, there's no need to attack israel as it's 95% (or so jabbed). Hammas can wait it out, then just walk in, anywhere from 5 years onwards, but that would still leave the mercs.. etc.

There are rumours that Hammas, like ISIS are all part of the same 3-letter agency.. to distract your vision.

Hamas says it is open to talks on a truce. So says a Hamas representative in an interview with Al Jazeera. He states that Hamas has achieved its "goals. What Hamas will demand in talks with Israel is not clear. Israel has not yet commented on possible talks on a truce.

Oct 9 (Reuters) - A senior Hamas official said the group is open to discussions over a possible truce with Israel, having "achieved its targets." Moussa Abu Marzouk told Al Jazeera in a phone interview that Hamas was open to "something of that sort" and "all political dialogues" when asked whether the Islamist group is willing to discuss a possible ceasefire. https://www.reuters.com/world/middle...el-2023-10-09/
