He also says that the Oct. 7 jihad massacres were not so as to “improve the situation in Gaza.” Hamas doesn’t care about the Gazans. It just wants to destroy Israel.
“Hamas Leaders to NY Times: No Interest in Helping Palestinians in Gaza, Want ‘Permanent’ War Against Israel,” by Joel B. Pollak, Breitbart, November 8, 2023:
Hamas leaders told the New York Times on Wednesday that they had no interest in governing Gaza and instead wanted to create a “permanent” state of war against Israel that, in their minds, would mobilize Arab support and keep the Palestinian cause alive.
The idea of governing Gaza well, or building institutions toward creating a Palestinian state, seems not to have occurred to them — nor did the Times‘ Ben Hubbard and Maria Abi-Habib, who had access to Hamas leaders, suggest that more constructive idea.
It was necessary to “change the entire equation and not just have a clash,” Khalil al-Hayya, a member of Hamas’s top leadership body, told The New York Times in Doha, Qatar. “We succeeded in putting the Palestinian issue back on the table, and now no one in the region is experiencing calm.”
…
“I hope that the state of war with Israel will become permanent on all the borders, and that the Arab world will stand with us,” Taher El-Nounou, a Hamas media adviser, told The Times.
…
“This battle was not because we wanted fuel or laborers,” he added. “It did not seek to improve the situation in Gaza. This battle is to completely overthrow the situation.”…
Hoi Polloi says
So, if he and his fellow believers ‘hope that the state of war with Israel will become permanent,’ how does this figure into BHO-3.0’s demands for a ‘proportionate response?’ What is the proportionate response to calls for a war that ends only once the state of Israel has ceased to exist?

Say Hamas?
SET THE LITTLE CHILDREN FREE
Would you like it if your children were kidnapped?
Don’t children need their mummies and daddies?
Leave children out of this:Don’t you think they should go home?
Can you at least consider the worry and trauma inflicted on the parents?
They are just children.Innocent.
Children who are muslim or Jewish have one thing in common:they are innocent
Show some humanitarianism.

Well, Gazans, there you have it from the “leadership” mouths. They don’t care about the suffering they caused for you. They just want to play whack-a-Jew and keep the adrenaline flowing.
Got Hamas? Got leaders with skim bucks and villas. Got adrenaline junkies, Got cowards who hide under your house, Got death, Got grief, Got coffins.

He says this Truth and why can’t people like blinken pay attention? blinken and his bosses, bo and biden, know it, but they have the same goal as hamas….just different weapons
“Blinken Says ‘Too Many’ Palestinians Killed in Israel-Hamas War”
““Much more needs to be done in terms of both protecting civilians and getting humanitarian assistance to them,” Blinken said. “And we have concrete plans, concrete things that we’re working on that would do just that.””
“concrete plans and concrete things”…..some cement shoes for the Jews? An offer the Jews can’t refuse?

I think he is quite wrong Hamas is like poisoned fruit, apart from Iran which shares the same goals, and Quatar, most Arab states are turning away from Hamas than towards it

Hamas must be degenerated fools if they think they can last forever. Even hitler didn’t last too long. Hamas will be wiped off the face of the world in a not so kind manner.
