Borg warner Posted March 17 Share Posted March 17 While Biden and his lapdogs in the media are calling for a cease fire to appease Hamas supporters in the US Congress and Palestinian voters in Michigan, Israel is close to defeating Hamas. Hats off to the Wall Street Journal for printing the news that has been suppressed. Israel Will Defeat Hamas in Rafah We’ve incapacitated most of the terror group. Rafah is its last stronghold, and we must win there too. By Ophir Falk The Wall Street Journal March 14, 2024 Mounting international pressure to end the war won’t weaken Israel’s resolve to accomplish its mission of destroying Hamas, freeing the hostages and guaranteeing that Gaza will never pose a threat to Israel again. Detractors dismiss total victory as implausible, but the facts on the ground indicate otherwise. Israel has already dismantled 18 of Hamas’s 24 battalions, incapacitated more than 21,500 Hamas terrorists—about two-thirds of its force, including two of the top four leaders—and destroyed significant terror tunnels. By contrast, it took U.S. military forces nine months to take out 5,000 ISIS fighters in Mosul. John Spencer, chairman of urban warfare studies at West Point, described Israel’s achievements as “unprecedented,” especially given the complex combat conditions above and below ground. Mr. Spencer says that Israel is setting the “gold standard” for avoiding civilian casualties. Israel doesn’t need prompting to provide humanitarian aid or to act with caution. According to retired British Col. Richard Kemp, the average combatant-to-civilian death ratio in Gaza is about 1 to 1.5. This is astonishing since, according to the United Nations, the average combatant-to-civilian death ratio in urban warfare has been 1 to 9. Israel seeks to minimize civilian casualties, while Hamas seeks to maximize civilian casualties and use them as a propaganda tool. We cannot let Hamas’s strategy pay off. Hamas has four terror brigades in Rafah. That city is Hamas’s last stronghold, and its defeat is a prerequisite for victory. Whoever pressures Israel to refrain from entering Rafah is preventing the destruction of Hamas and the freeing of Israel and Gazan civilians from Hamas’s stranglehold. Gen. David Petraeus, who led the 2007 American surge in Iraq, said last week that the “key now is to not stop until Hamas is fully destroyed.” Asking Israel to stop the war now is akin to telling the Allies to stop halfway to Berlin in World War II. If Hamas isn’t eradicated, genocidal terrorists will continue to emerge. As Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu told new Israel Defense Forces cadets last week, “when we defeat the murderers of October 7, we are preventing the next 9/11.” Global leaders should take note. High-intensity combat will wind down after Rafah, humanitarian aid will no longer be hijacked by Hamas, and safety for civilians can be realized. Total victory is within reach. Israel will finish the job. Anything less will endanger the rest of the civilized world. Mr. Falk is an adviser to Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu. 7 5 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I saw a similar article as well. At one point, Poland refused any Muslim migrants. Don't know if that has changed. The middle east is a chit hole not because of Russian or Western colonization but because of Islam. Deniers will talk about the Crusades but the Crusades started because of Islamic colonization. Now we could have a great discussion on all the horrible things done "in the name of Christianity" but that doesn't make them Christian. It is clearly in the Quran to convert or slay infidels. The radical Muslims that lie to and murder infidels are true Muslims not the other way around as som sympathizers claim. I have no doubt there are "peaceful" Muslims but if you still follow a cancerous belief where your prophet married a child and you deny the rights of women in general and are willing to use your child as a shield well then I will say you are more of a cultist. Jesus is the ONLY way. I didn't say that so anyone that has an issue can take it up with Him, not me. 4 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

As said in another context, when the chance arises they raise the skull and crossbones. 5 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
