US focused on hunting down Hamas chief Yahya Sinwar, in bid to end Gaza war
Officials say Biden administration is roughly one month behind on last known location of Hamas's Gaza chief
The United States is focused on tracking down Hamas's Gaza chief, Yahya Sinwar, amid a new push by the White House to help Israel declare "total victory" so it can bring an end to the war on Gaza, US officials have told Middle East Eye.
On Monday, The Washington Post reported that the US was offering Israel new intelligence to help track Hamas leaders in exchange for Israel not launching the assault on Rafah.
That report was carried by some Israeli news outlets under the title: US withholding "sensitive intelligence" on Hamas from Israel. However, several current and former US and Arab diplomats, as well as defence and intelligence officials, told MEE it was highly unlikely the US would withhold information on Hamas from Israel.
You're viewing a single thread.
I would bet a years salary that they’ll keep going even if they find and kill him. Hell, I bet they keep going if he offers himself to the Israelis as a sacrificial lamb to try to stop them from murdering civilians.
Edit: woah. As of this writing, the account that replied and downvoted this is about 9 minutes old. I have successfully inspired someone to join lemmy (yay 😄), but it seems they’re not the caliber of person whose going to improve the discourse here (aww 😞).
Yep. There has been nothing to indicate Israel gives a single shit about this guy.
Biden: "What if we hunted down Yayah Sinwat?"
Little Ben: "Who?"
Biden: "The Hamas chief."
Little Ben: "Ooh, those guys. Yeah, yeah, yeah, sure."
Like a fiddle. Again. Even after Biden admitted he got played at the start already. He's not great at seeing things that are so obvious to the rest of the world.
It’s calling Netanyahu’s bluff. In the meantime, the IDF won’t be shelling the areas with US military presence.
U.S. military ground forces acting as human shields to protect Muslim civilians of another country does not exist as a Bingo square.
Oh Bibi knows who he is, he's been the one cashing the checks Bibi was writing.
I'm betting on that even if the Hamas chief offers himself, the states and Israel will try to swing it as a look-a-like and will conveniently find the "real" one shortly after occupying all of Palestine, so they can keep trying to bring attention back to a single person
Israel, sure. But I genuinely do not think Biden would go for that.
It seems you have a gambling issue
