JERUSALEM (AP) — Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu said Wednesday that Israel would “crush and destroy” Hamas in response to its attack.
Netanyahu said every Hamas member was a “dead man.”
Netanyahu made the remarks in a late-night televised address as Israeli planes pounded Gaza in response to the unprecedented attack.
Netanyahu failed to protect his people from rape, mutilation, and murder. His administration helped Hamas secure power in Gaza. He is a failure for the nation, as all fascists ultimately are for their nations.
They can destroy the organization. but they won't be able to quash the resistance movement. they will only make the current generation even more determined to avenge their ancestors. and the cycle keeps going
Eh it's the middle east. Everyone is recreating their own suffering. The conclusion is that there is no solution other than to continue to cut the grass. You declared war now, suffer the consequences.
Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu joined with a top political rival on Wednesday to create a war-time Cabinet overseeing the fight to avenge a stunning weekend attack by Hamas militants.
In the sealed-off Gaza Strip ruled by Hamas, Palestinian suffering mounted as Israeli bombardment demolished neighborhoods and the only power plant ran out of fuel.
Medical teams and rescuers struggled to enter other areas where roads were too destroyed, including Gaza City’s al-Karama district, where a “large number” were killed or wounded, according to the Hamas-run Interior Ministry.
The risk of the war spreading was evident Wednesday after the Iranian-backed Lebanese militant group Hezbollah fired anti-tank missiles at an Israeli military position and claimed to have killed and wounded troops.
Hamas said it launched its attack Saturday because Palestinians’ suffering had become intolerable under unending Israeli military occupation and increasing settlements in the West Bank and a 16-year-long blockade in Gaza.
