Tiberius Posted November 1, 2023 Author Share Posted November 1, 2023 US Secretary of State Antony Blinken said Tuesday that a “revitalized” Palestinian Authority should retake control of Gaza if Israel succeeds in its goal of toppling Hamas, but that regional partners and international agencies could play an interim role. The comments by Blinken during testimony before the Senate Appropriations Committee marked the first time the Biden administration has publicly declared its desire for the PA to return to the Gaza Strip, after privately raising the idea with regional partners since the outbreak of the Israel-Hamas war. Hours after the hearing — which included repeated interruptions by several dozen of far-left protesters calling for a ceasefire — an Israeli official confirmed to The Times of Israel that Blinken will arrive in Tel Aviv on Friday for his second visit since the Hamas terror group launched its deadly shock assault over three weeks ago. https://www.timesofisrael.com/blinken-to-visit-israel-on-friday-says-revitalized-pa-should-govern-gaza-after-war/ Well, at least they are talking about something happening to create a peaceful outcome (Bloomberg) -- The US and Israel are exploring options for the future of the Gaza Strip, including the possibility of a multinational force that may involve American troops if Israeli forces succeed in ousting Hamas, people familiar with the matter said. The people said the conversations have been impelled by a sense of urgency to come up with a plan for the future of Gaza now that a ground invasion has begun. A second option would establish a peacekeeping force modeled on one that oversees a 1979 Egypt-Israel peace treaty, while a third would see Gaza put under temporary United Nations oversight. https://www.msn.com/en-us/news/world/us-and-israel-weigh-peacekeepers-for-the-gaza-strip-after-hamas/ar-AA1jaPiB Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tiberius Posted November 1, 2023 Author Share Posted November 1, 2023 Net-an-yahoo's son living it up in Florida! Yair Netanyahu's absence during Israel's war has drawn significant attention, especially considering the mobilization of hundreds of thousands of reservists and the national crisis unfolding. The British publications, Daily Mail and The Times have featured interviews with IDF soldiers who have volunteered for the reserves, expressing their disappointment in his failure to enlist during this critical time. The Daily Mail devoted an article to exposing Yair Netanyahu's controversial past and criticized his decision to stay in Miami Beach since April, after being instructed by his father to cease posting inflammatory content on social media. In contrast, reservists are leaving their jobs, families, and even postponing honeymoons to defend their country. https://www.jpost.com/j-spot/article-770792 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Tiberius Posted November 1, 2023 Author Share Posted November 1, 2023 Even amid the terrible destruction that has transformed parts of Jenin into pits of jumbled masonry, the bullet-pocked tower of the Palestinian government headquarters stands out — not for the relatively light damage it sustained but for who caused it. Whereas homes in this West Bank city have been demolished by Israeli troops, roads have been churned up by Israeli bulldozers and storefronts have been disfigured by Israeli gunfire, the offices of the Sultah, or Palestinian Authority, were attacked by Palestinians themselves during a noisy protest over Israel's bombardment of Gaza. Disgusted with the authority's inability to protect its own people or stand up to Israel, militants in the crowd aimed their bullets at the government compound after its security forces tried to break up the demonstration. https://www.msn.com/en-us/news/other/amid-israel-hamas-war-some-palestinians-rage-against-another-target-their-own-rulers/ar-AA1jcwpb Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

All_Pro_Bills Posted November 1, 2023 Share Posted November 1, 2023 Read this sentence earlier today which sums up nicely the Israeli aid mystery. Mainly why do US taxpayers have to provide any funding to a wealthy and prosperous country to fight a war? "Israel, with GDP of almost half a trillion dollars and a debt-to-GDP ratio that is half of that of the United States, and a super-advanced military, still somehow needs $14.3 billion from US taxpayers in order to continue its extensive bombing campaign throughout Gaza following the October 7 Hamas terrorist attack". Add in lucrative revenue streams from Mediterranean NatGas fields and they've got plenty of their own cash. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Will they turn against Hamas? Storm the tunnels? Call for peace? Or does their history lesson begin after all that took place? They're children, they're going to remember the things that directly happened to them the bombs that went off, the parents, siblings, other family, and friends killed, homes destroyed, starvation, thirst, scramble for shelter, and the fear they're going to remember all those horrible things that directly happened to them way better than a story about horrible things that happened somewhere else right before these things started happening.

Tiberius Posted November 1, 2023 Author Share Posted November 1, 2023 Ethnically cleansing in the West Bank Since Oct. 7, the U.N. agency said, “Israeli settler violence has increased significantly,” with 828 Palestinians displaced since then “amid settler violence or increased movement restrictions.” In the days since Hamas attacked Israel, fueling anti-Muslim and anti-Arab sentiment in Israel and beyond, OCHA said it has recorded 171 attacks by Israeli settlers, 26 of them deadly. The figure does not include incidents of “harassment, trespass and intimidation” that did not involve killings or property damage, OCHA said, though those episodes, too, “increase the pressure on Palestinians to leave.” In one incident two days after the Hamas attack, the herding community of Al Ganoub was raided by Israeli settlers, OCHA said. They threatened Palestinians at gunpoint, set living quarters ablaze and stole livestock, according to the agency, which cited local residents. On Saturday, an Israeli settler shot and killed a Palestinian man who was harvesting olives, the Associated Press reported. President Biden said last week that attacks by “extremist settlers” against Palestinians were worsening the conflict. https://www.washingtonpost.com/world/2023/11/01/israel-war-hamas-news-gaza-palestine/ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sadly, if they don't remember the atrocities perpetrated by their government, and the pain and suffering that alining with Hamas (or other extremist factions in the area) brings, nothing will change. Besides, it sure seems like the lessons of hate will not be new to this, or any generation of Gaza or Israel into the foreseeable future. Perhaps the hostages should be released, unconditionally, now? 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

So the Palestinians have a right to remember who did it, but not why. but the Israeli civilians are supposed to forget and ignore the HAMAS slaughter of civilians on the 7th?
