Well Adolf Benji, with the support of Delusional Donny, has decided that he's moved the try line enough times now that he'll just return to his ethnic cleansing ways.

Israel has begun a massive assault on targets in the Gaza Strip with Hamas stating Israel has just ‘sacrificed its hostages’.

The White House confirmed that Israel consulted US President Donald Trump’s administration before launching the wave of strikes, which rescuers claim primarily killed women, children and the elderly.

Israel on Tuesday unleashed its most intense strikes on the Gaza Strip since a January ceasefire, with rescuers reporting 220 people killed and Hamas accusing Benjamin Netanyahu of deciding to “resume war” after a deadlock on extending the truce.

Netanyahu’s office said the operation was ordered after “Hamas’s repeated refusal to release our hostages, as well as its rejection of all of the proposals it has received from US Presidential Envoy Steve Witkoff and from the mediators.

Netanyahu’s office said the operation was ordered after “Hamas’s repeated refusal to release our hostages, as well as its rejection of all of the proposals it has received from US Presidential Envoy Steve Witkoff and from the mediators.......

......During the first phase of the truce agreement, Hamas released 33 hostages, including eight deceased, and Israel freed around 1,800 Palestinian detainees.

Since then, Hamas has consistently demanded negotiations for the second phase.

Former US president Joe Biden had outlined a second phase involving the release of remaining living hostages, the withdrawal of all Israeli forces left in Gaza and the establishment of a lasting ceasefire.

Israel, however, seeks to extend the first phase until mid-April, insisting any transition to the second phase must include “the total demilitarisation” of Gaza and the removal of Hamas, which has controlled the territory since 2007.

The talks have been stuck at an impasse, and Israel has cut aid and electricity to the territory during the deadlock.....

Benji has never wanted a ceasefire right from the very start. All he and his Nazi mob have ever wanted to do was to kill all Palestinians and steal their land.

Netanyahu’s office said the operation was ordered after "Hamas’s repeated refusal to release our hostages, as well as its rejection of all of the proposals it has received from US Presidential Envoy Steve Witkoff and from the mediators."

They refuse to release further hostages, so there's no continuation of the ceasefire into Phase II. What do these folks think will happen? Israel retreats; enables them to rearm for another Oct 7th and Hamas keeps the remaining hostages for years or decades to come; now and then a gruesome video clip of a hostage surfaces...? Israel has extensive experience with long-term hostages held by Hamas or Hezbollah. Blackmail no longer works after thousands of deaths.

[...] accusing the Israeli prime minister of using the conflict as a political “lifeboat” to stay afloat amid domestic crises.

That could be.

Sadly, are any of the Hamas abused hostages still alive?...


All in a very deadly political world...

Sadly, are any of the Hamas abused hostages still alive?...

24 are said to still be alive. The problem is... they are younger males... and even worse: most are or had been IDF soldiers (except for the Thai and Nepalese, eventually a Russian/Israeli dual citizen). I don't believe Hamas considers the remaining Israeli hostages human.

Hamas could continue the so-called ceasefire process of releasing hostages for dozens of their bunch of murderers and terrorists. They still did this for female IDF soldiers recently. I can't see they are wiling to continue with young male soldiers. Supposedly Netanyahu too (with decreasing external threats) became less compliant to their demands... already in the recent hostage exchanges Israel released some vile terrorists convicted of the most brutal, heinous murders among the hundreds of prisoners who no other sane government would have released). Does reason demands to exchange each vile murderer for the last innocent hostage? At some point hate exceeds reason (Hamas' as well as Netanyahu's). The problem for Hamas is, Israel has changed forever. There's no going back to the time before Oct 7th.

The hostages are all 'cards' they still possess (no Hezbollah, no Mullahs, no Syria, no Houthi threat, ...). Even when the last hostage would have been freed, Israel cannot and will not retreat and leave Gaza on its own resp. to biased UNRWA and international aid idealists, that is: again tolerate Hamas' rearmament and continued terror reign over Gaza.

This will not repeat after >1,000 murdered civilians on Oct 7th. There's no future for Hamas... I'm sure Hamas leaders sense it but they still reject to take consequences. If they do, they would realize there's a new Middle East which demands to change course, lay down arms and end the futile terror.

What's the best strategy? Appeasement? No. Netanyahu's 'shock and awe' followed by 'negotiations under fire'? This surely provokes caring, rational Arab powers... a strategy in between? Which one?

It seems Trump failed to convince the powerful and wealthy of the Middle East to engage in Gaza, pacifying this hellhole (order, governance, rebuilding, progress, enable prosperity). They either fear the anger of their islamist brainwashed population (60 years you said: from the river to the sea...; now what?). Or, more likely, they don't believe Trump's threat to transform Gaza into an American exclave.

It would be easier for Arabs to achieve order and progress in Gaza than it is for Israel; Americans... all Western powers would be doomed to fail.

Murderous Adolf Benji is no better than the Ayatollah, PooTin, Lil' overfed Kim or even Delusional Donny, and many others.

The six controversies plaguing Israel and Benjamin Netanyahu.

Israel's "King Bibi" has trouble in his palace.

With protesters camping outside Benjamin Netanyahu's house and Israelis being told to return to war, the prime minister is nevertheless going further than ever in a contentious quest to remove opponents and obstacles.

According to leading experts, the stakes are high.

They're outraged, and have publicly said Israeli democracy has been backsliding under Netanyahu

Constitutional law professor Suzie Navot, from the Israel Democracy Institute, wrote: "The red flags could not be bigger — those keen on protecting the security and democracy of the state of Israel should heed the warning."

Former chief justice, the highly respected Aharon Barak, told Israel's channel 12 this week: "Israel is very close to civil war."

Here are the six main battles the country's longest-serving leader is fighting.........

They're all crooks that need to be jailed.

7 October Parliamentary Commission Report

The difference is, an American citizen enjoys freedom of speech which is absolute compared to the current European interpretation of it.

But a foreign PhD student on a visa is a temporary guest in the country. No government is forced to accept the presence of foreigners who act against government policies.

• 'acknowledge the genocide'
  
• 'divest from companies with ties to Israel' (btw. that's: "Kauft nicht bei Juden" (don't buy from Jews))
  

is AGAINST U.S. policy.

But this same government is obliged to tolerate any political opinion of American citizens because they can't be expelled abroad.

Don't for one second believe that. They will be happy to go back as many generations as necessary to claim you are an immigrant.

Don't for one second believe that. They will be happy to go back as many generations as necessary to claim you are an immigrant.

Then it's about time to collect all the papers from your ancestors, from your local church, from your mayor's office in order to apply for a proper Aryan certificate.

In the meantime, we are preparing for the many immigrants from America. You are very welcome.

There's no doubt that Adolf Benji and his mob are a bunch of murderous lowlifes who need to be brought to justice.

An admission from Israel’s Defence Force over a deadly attack involving “suspicious vehicles” has reignited accusations of “war crimes”.

.... The military did not say if there was fire coming from the vehicles.

It added that “after an initial inquiry, it was determined that some of the suspicious vehicles … were ambulances and fire trucks”, and condemned “the repeated use” by “terrorist organisations in the Gaza Strip of ambulances for terrorist purposes”.

The day after the incident, Gaza’s civil defence agency said in a statement that it had not heard from a team of six rescuers from Tal al-Sulta who had been urgently dispatched to respond to deaths and injuries.....

The Israeli lies continue along with its war crimes.

Israeli military investigating killing of 15 Palestinian medics, but denies 'execution'.

The Israeli military says an investigation "outside the chain of command" has been launched into the killing of Palestinian medics and emergency responders in southern Gaza, but denies the group had been "executed."

On Sunday, 15 bodies were recovered from what the United Nations has described as a "mass grave", a week after they were fired upon by Israeli forces.

The United Nations (UN) and humanitarian organisations have levelled serious allegations at the Israel Defense Forces (IDF) over the incident near Tel al-Sultan, including that vehicles clearly marked as ambulances and fire trucks were targeted by troops.

The IDF had been roundly criticised for restricting access to crews trying to recover the bodies for days, and there are questions as to why the remains were buried under sand alongside the wreckage of bombed out vehicles.......

Adolf Benji and his butchers get caught out.

Video footage appears to contradict Israeli account of Gaza medic killings.

Mobile phone footage has emerged that appears to contradict Israel's account of why soldiers opened fire on a convoy of ambulances and a fire truck on March 23, killing 15 rescue workers.

The video, published by the Palestine Red Crescent Society (PRCS), shows the vehicles moving in darkness with headlights and emergency flashing lights switched on - before coming under fire. The PRCS said the video was obtained from the phone of a paramedic who was killed.

The Israel Defense Forces (IDF) initially denied the vehicles had their headlights or emergency signals on......

Two British MPs refused entry into Israel, UK foreign ministry says.

Israel has detained two British members of parliament and refused entry to the officials who were visiting as part of a parliamentary delegation, the UK foreign secretary said in a statement.

Labour MPs Yuan Yang and Abtisam Mohamed were rejected and deported upon entry because they were suspected of plans to "document the activities of security forces and spread anti-Israel hatred", the Israeli immigration ministry said in a statement cited on Sky News......

Adolf Benji and his murderous butchers are doing well on that front without any help needed from others.

Those Nazi Israeli butchers are continuing with the genocide.

Palestinians allege Israeli military targeted civilians after ordering them out of Tel Al-Sultan.

Since Israel renewed its assault on Gaza, its military has ordered hundreds of thousands of Palestinians to flee certain neighbourhoods.

One of the first areas it ordered Palestinians to leave was Tel Al-Sultan in the southern city of Rafah, but during one of the Israel Defense Force's (IDF) operations, 50,000 people were reportedly trapped there.

Five witnesses have told the ABC that multiple civilians were targeted and killed by the IDF when they were supposed to have safe passage out of the city.

They say this happened during an operation that lasted nearly six hours.

The IDF said it was targeting terrorists.

But the United Nations (UN) said reports of attacks on civilians were consistent with previous incidents during the war........

The IDF said it was targeting terrorists.

To the IDF if it moves it is a terrorist.

There's no Easter in Gaza.

Israeli strikes on Gaza kill more than 90 people in 48 hours, Gaza's health ministry says.

Israeli strikes in Gaza have killed more than 90 people in the past 48 hours, the Gaza Health Ministry said, as Israeli troops ramp up attacks to pressure Hamas to release its hostages.

The dead include 15 people killed on Saturday local time, including women and children, some of whom were sheltering in a designated humanitarian zone, hospital staff said.

At least 11 people were killed in the southern city of Khan Younis, several of them in a tent in the Mwasi area where hundreds of thousands of displaced people are living, a hospital worker said.

Israel has designated it as a humanitarian zone.........

As the B.S. continues.

Israel says killing of Palestinian medics the result of 'poor night visibility'.

An Israeli military investigation into the killing of 15 Palestinian medics and emergency workers has labelled it an "operational misunderstanding", saying "poor night visibility" led troops to open fire on ambulances.

The deputy commander of the battalion involved in the attack has been dismissed as a result of the probe, with the investigation saying his recollection of the incident was "incomplete and inaccurate".

The Israel Defense Forces (IDF) has faced significant criticism over the attack in southern Gaza on March 23 after the bodies of eight paramedics, six Gaza civil defence workers and one United Nations staffer were found in a shallow grave next to the crushed wreckage of their vehicles........

How low will those Israelis go? Pretty low it seems.

Israeli police accused of turning Jerusalem's Old City into 'militarised zone' over Easter.

Israel Police have been accused of turning Jerusalem's Old City into a "militarised zone" and blocking worshippers from praying over Easter, after violent scuffles broke out near one of Christianity's holiest sites.

Thousands had lined up for hours to attend the Holy Fire ceremony at the Church of the Holy Sepulchre on Easter Saturday — a ceremony where priests light candles inside the shrine built over the spot believed to be Jesus's tomb, before passing the candles around the congregation.

But Israeli police had restricted access to the church, erecting barricades and forcing worshippers to enter through only one of the Old City's historic gates.

Video circulating on social media shows police officers pushing and shoving Christians out of the way in the city's narrow streets and laneways.

One officer drew his handgun and brandished it in the face of a Christian scout, before fellow officers stepped in and guided him away.....

They're a very sick bunch of Nazis.

Israeli lies keep on unraveling.

Israeli tank fire responsible for deadly strike at UN facility in Gaza, IDF report finds.

Israeli tank fire was responsible for a deadly strike on a United Nations compound in Gaza last month, contradicting prior claims from Israel's foreign ministry that its military had "no connection" to the incident.

The strike happened on March 19, a day after a ceasefire in the Palestinian territory collapsed. The attack killed a Bulgarian worker and injured several UN employees.

The UN at the time said the compound was "well known" to both sides of the Israel-Hamas conflict and blamed an Israeli tank for the incident.

In response, Israeli foreign ministry spokesperson Oren Marmorstein said Israel had launched an investigation into the UN worker's death, but "the initial examination found no connection... whatsoever" to Israeli military activity.

But in a statement on Thursday, the Israeli Defence Force (IDF) said a preliminary investigation had found one of its own tanks was indeed responsible for the bombardment.

It however argued the building was not identified by its soldiers as belonging to the United Nations........

Pretty much 99.9% of what comes from Adolf Benji, his government and the IDF are lies. Sounds just like PooTin and his criminal mob.

As protests grow and public opinion further turns against Adolf "the butcher" Benji at home he must be feeling the ground under his feet becoming further unstable.

Hostage families say Netanyahu is deceiving Israelis, threatening to topple him.

Families of Israeli hostages say the public is being deceived by Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu and "the blood of every hostage taken alive returning in a body bag" is on his hands.

At their weekly media conference on Saturday local time, the families demanded the end of the war and the return of the hostages held in Gaza.

"Netanyahu is misleading and deceiving the public at the expense of the lives of our hostages," Efrat Machikawa, the relative of freed hostage Gadi Moses said.

"We must take to the streets and demand that the war be ended and that all the hostages be returned in one step.

"If Netanyahu refuses, we should reconsider to take action to topple him in order to save the hostages.".......
