Yeah, no, it is a perfect time for Hamas to surrender
Biden says Sinwar’s death is an ‘opportunity’ for a hostage deal and an end to war in Gaza
President Joe Biden said Thursday that the killing of Hamas leader Yahya Sinwar by Israeli troops is a “good day for the world,” calling it an opportunity to free hostages held by the militant group and end the yearlong war in Gaza.
“Now’s the time to move on. … Move toward a cease-fire in Gaza, make sure that we move in a direction that we’re able to make things better for the whole world,” Biden told reporters as he arrived in Berlin for a short visit. “It’s time for this war to end and bring these hostages home. That’s what we’re ready to do.”
U.S. officials expressed such measured optimism that the killing of a militant (WT – good grief, the AP just called the leader of a terrorist group a militant) characterized by national security adviser Jake Sullivan as a “massive obstacle to peace” might breathe new life into cease-fire talks that have failed to produce a breakthrough for months despite periodic signs of progress.
“Over the past few weeks, there have been no negotiations for an end to the war because Sinwar has refused to negotiate,” State Department spokesman Matthew Miller told reporters. “We now see an opportunity with him having been removed from the battlefield, being removed from the leadership of Hamas, and we want to seize that opportunity.”
It would be great if the hostages were returned and the war ended. All that needs to happen is for Hamas to surrender and release the hostages.
Biden spoke by phone with Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu to congratulate him on the mission that killed Sinwar. They also discussed “how to use this moment to bring the hostages home and to bring the war to a close with Israel’s security assured and Hamas never again able to control Gaza,” according to a White House summary of the call.
What is Biden’s plan to keep terrorist organization Hamas from controlling Gaza? Or any other Islamic terrorist group? I’m not finding that in any article on the call. How about for ensuring Israel’s security? It would be helpful if Biden-Harris weren’t giving aid and money to Hamas. The best way to provide security is for Donald Trump to be re-elected. Even then, there are enough Palestinians who not only have been indoctrinated to hate Israel and Jews (and America, don’t forget that), but, to be pure Islamic extremists, hence why most Arab nations will not take them in.
(Jerusalem Post) The Iranian mission to the United Nations has warned that Israel’s killing of Hamas leader Yahya Sinwar will serve to “strengthen” the “spirit of resistance” of the Palestinian population against Israel.
The mission highlighted that Sinwar “will become a role model for the youth and children who will follow his path towards the liberation of Palestine.”
These would be the pals of Biden-Harris, whom they made sure were flush with cash which could be, and has been, used to promote terrorism.
Joey says now is the time for the Israelis to give up.
Brilliant!
