IDF spokesman says Hamas can’t be destroyed, drawing retort from PM: ‘That’s war’s goal’
Hagari calls Hamas 'an idea rooted in the hearts of the people,' also says it will stay in Gaza unless alternative found; PM reiterates war aims, amid divisions with defense brass
IDF Spokesperson Rear Adm. Daniel Hagari on Wednesday cast Israel’s war aim of eradicating the Hamas terror group as unattainable, appearing to underscore tensions between Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu and top defense officials over his handling of the war in Gaza.
“This business of destroying Hamas, making Hamas disappear — it’s simply throwing sand in the eyes of the public,” Hagari told Channel 13 news in an interview.
“Hamas is an idea, Hamas is a party. It’s rooted in the hearts of the people — anyone who thinks we can eliminate Hamas is wrong,” he continued.
Israel won't stop until every non-Israeli person in Gaza is eliminated. The Nazis called this "ethnische Säuberung" (ethnic cleansing).
It's like abused children grow up to abuse their children the same way. The evil cycle of viciousness and violence.
These days I am ashamed of Germany again. Our guilt towards the Jewish people blinds us so much, that we even support them doing the same to others as we did to them.
Germany isn't supporting Jewish people. Germany is still vehemently spreading antisemitism.
Germany is supporting Zionists.
Maybe I wasn't clear enough in my comment. Of course I don't mean "The Jewish people" as a complete entity. I mean, Germany is unconditionally and it seems without critical thinking supporting Israel because their guilt towards Jewish people clouds their judgment.
Because of what we did, we can not show any critic or judgment towards Israel, because that's "anti-semitic". Which is a stance, that in my opinion actually harms any effort against anti-semitism.
That's what most sensible people on earth have been saying, but they have been labrelled as antisemites
IDF saying the thing everyone has been saying before they even started the Genocide
Why is a rear admiral the spokesperson in this matter? Does the IDF uses naval combat in this scenario as well?
Israel's navy is pretty much entirely for the purpose of enforcing a blockade on Gaza, I imagine he is quite familiar with the situation there.
I see. Yeah I forgot about the sea Blockade.
Well I did not expect Hagari to tell it like it is.
Yeah no an entire population blames all their woes and troubles on anyone with Jewish blood. It's impossible to ease that kind of hate.
Why is it not surprising an account with a post history vigorously defending voting for Biden is defending israel and spreading blatant antisemitism.
Said the person with a post history of vigorously spreading seemingly nothing but anti-Biden propaganda and misinformation.
