Netanyahu to Biden's Demand for a Ceasefire: Drop Dead

Well he didn't say that, but he did say no.

He also said he wasn't going to allow fuel deliveries to Gaza -- which Biden is desperate to make -- until they release the hostages they are holding and sometimes executing.

The Times of Israel:

In a brief televised statement before the start of Shabbat, Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu says he has told visiting US Secretary of State Antony Blinken that he rejects any temporary halt to the fight against Hamas that does not include "the release of our hostages. He also says Israel "will not enable the entry of fuel to Gaza."
Netanyahu begins by promising that victory will be "sharp and clear" and will "resonate for generations."
He says Israel's enemies aim to destroy the country and will fail. "We won't stop until victory," he says, specifying that this means "to destroy Hamas, [and attain the] return of the hostages and the restoration of security for our citizens and children."

No American news channel reported Hamas's declaration that they would conduct 10/7 slaughters forever -- "10/7, 10/10, 10/one million," Hamas's spokesterrorist promised -- until Israel was "annihilated."

Except for NBC, unbelievably, which made a fleeting reference to it.

NBC actually bothered to ask Hamas a question about this:

. When Bradley asks, "How can you ask for a cease-fire -- how can you ask Israel to stop their aggression -- when you go on television in Lebanon, here last week, and say that you will continue your aggression, you will continue to do October 7 again and again?"
"What do you want us to do," Hamad responds angrily, "stop?"

Well, yes, actually. Video at the link.

Hamas insists they have a legal right to commit terrorism, under international law. And given the mutants who use international law as a weapon against any western country, they may have a point.

In his interview with NBC, Hamad was challenged to clarify that statement about repeating the October 7 massacre. He largely deflected, bringing up the massive number of Gazan civilians who have been killed since the start of the war. He said that the people of Gaza have been suffering for 17 years and it is the legal right of Palestinians to "fight against the occupation."
He furthered his point by bringing up the plight of Jews in Nazi Europe. "It is according to international law," Hamad said. "According to all of the regulations and the law. In Europe, you [fight] against the Nazis."

You are the Nazis.

Hey, by the way, about that: The left used to tell us that we should all "Punch Nazis" and that Punching Nazis was no crime, but a service to humanity.

Does the left still believe that? Shall we descend upon college campuses and take the advice of the left and start Punching (actual) Nazis?

Or nah?

Nah, I think, because the Democrat Party is the party of Nazis. Democrats are rushing to take pro-Nazi positions as their base demands.

My new Gaza statement:

"It's time for Israel's friends to recognize that the current approach is causing an unacceptable level of civilian harm and does not appear likely to achieve the goal of ending the threat from Hamas. I urge Israel to immediately reconsider its approach." pic.twitter.com/dVpGrjJFdp

You may have already seen Dick Durbin demanding a ceasefire, with no preconditions and no demand that Hamas release its hostages. If not, that video is at the link.

Alexandria Piranha-Grimace attacks the Israel PAC AIPAC, calling the Jewish group "racist and bigoted" and "extremist:"

Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez
@AOC
AIPAC endorsed scores of Jan 6th insurrectionists. They are no friend to American democracy.
They are one of the more racist and bigoted PACs in Congress as well, who disproportionately target members of color.
They are an extremist organization that destabilizes US democracy.

And the US is demanding that Israel give Fatah taxes that they've collected for it, despite Fatah immediately supporting Hamas's terror attacks.

It is inevitable that the Democrat Party will softly support Hamas. They will try to talk out of both sides of their mouths, but they have decided: They need those Hamas voters, and therefore Jews are just New York Money Men and Oppressors and Colonialists and they no longer have a place in the woke, racist, savage Democrat Party.

Similar acts have previously been attributed to Palestinian and #Hezbollah terrorists in Syria. They do not want civilians to leave; they want to use them as human shields and kill anyone who attempts to leave. Hamas terrorists in Gaza will, as usual, blame #Israel because it is easy and there is media that accepts this propaganda.

You have to first understand the assumptions of those on the left. They hate “nationalism”. They hate Judaism, but the dominant religion in USA was Christianity. So they hate that, too.

So technically a Christian, who is also a Nationalist, is a Christian Nationalist. But that isn’t what they mean.

It’s a pseudo-academic way of un-personing you, an alternative nomenclature to “Nazi” or “White Supremacist”.

You are the enemy. That’s what they mean by that.

How does that work? The "occupation" ended :: checks notes :: 18 years ago. That's close to 17. So is this a case of "they can't do simple arithmetic" or is it something else?

What *did* happen 17 years ago? Well, in June of 2007 - about 16.5 years ago - Hamas settled its electoral dispute with the PLA (it won control of Gaza, and the PLA wasn't too happy about it) and took over Gaza through main force.

So what is this "occupation" and who caused the suffering? Because by my calendar, Hamas could only be describing itself.

I think they're doing it because they want to. And it's not all that "soft." The US isn't directly funding and arming Hamas yet, so I guess that qualifies as "soft."

93 One report said there were maybe 200,000 Gazans left in the North of Gaza, still serving as human shields. Many of those probably decide on their own to serve as human shields (making them legit targets?) ... while others are not allowed to leave. ...

Yet all (leftist) calls are for a cease fire, not for Hamas to quit using human shields, not for Hamas to quit firing indiscriminate missiles into Israel. But it does seem the US is in the region to prevent Iran's other assets (like Hezbollah) to up their attacks.

There is already a "two-state" solution. There is an argument that Jordan is the second state, but I don't think it really qualifies in this context.

The second state that already exists is Gaza. Israel withdrew, "Palestine" held elections, Gaza went to Hamas, the "unity government" collapsed, Hamas took Gaza from Fatah by main force and seceded. Gaza *is* the "second state.* It has been for almost 20 years. And it decided to invade the first state after revolting against its fellow "second staters."

Meanwhile---as people holding passports from everywhere from the US to Slovakia to Ungabunga flee Gaza (why were they there in the first place? Gaza is hardly a tourist destination), which sort of shows that the tight interdiction of Gaza is nonsense, these same news correspondents do not seem able to balance their sob stories about the privations of Gaza with one single interview with someone in Israel who had a loved one abducted by the Hamas murderers.

The Dems have put themselves into a pickle that would be amusing if the stakes weren't so high. They personally profit immensely from the "donations" from the Big Money backers who support Isreal, especially in the Tech World. They also depend electorally on the pro-hamas, anti Israel activists that they have cultivated. So they try to play to both sides at the same time, and are failing MISERABLY.

They did this a few weeks ago, too - set of an IED next to a caravan of fleeing refuges and claimed it was an Israeli air strike. Fortunately there was video, which was slowed down and showed that nothing came out of the sky before the explosion, so the story never really took off, then the hospital incident happened and the story was buried completely.

Hamas needs to do something that shows "cease fire" doesn't just mean "make Israel stop bombing us"

The cease fire would come with strings. Primarily I am thinking UN monitored elections in Gaza. Do the people really want Hamas as their leaders or would they vote for the PA? If the vote goes to Hamas and they continue to oppose the existence of Israel... so be it.

I suspect Hamas's gesture has more to do with the one glitch is their so far successful campaign to unite the world's antisemites and "bleeding hearts" against Israel...the hostages...

Hamas was prepared for Israel's retaliation but I think Hamas was not prepared for Israel to ignore the United Nations call for a ceasefire..

As is normal. This is the standard play, and it usually works. Hamas takes a hostage and gets 100 Hamas animals sprung from Israeli prisons in exchange. Hamas has historically achieved a very generous exchange rate on hostages-for-prisoners deals. So now they're going for broke - "all in" on both sides.

Why would they be scared of losing Michigan? Detroit can pump out a few hundred thousand extra votes, easily. In the olden days, there was only so much fraud available. A few thousand stuffed ballots here and there on electiond ay.

Today, with mail in votes and 6 weeks of early voting, if they lose 100K votes from muzzies, they can easily make it up through fraud.

We've been watching collegiate women's volleyball. It's really good, very competitive, and charming in a unique way. The girls are extremely feminine and behave like women, and there's nothing they can do about it. It's hard to describe, but they'll score or mess up and the very actions they take towards each other to cheer or cheer up one another are soft and feminine. I assume that carries over into all sports. It's hard to imagine a man fitting in at all with them, no matter how much blackface he puts on.

It offends me to no end that there are guys out there who think "Man, these girls suck. You know what I'll do?"

I believe Roosevelt and Truman basically took the position that the camps existed, but they weren't enough of a priority to change our plans. They argued the best way to shut down the camps was to end the war. I believe they also refused to bomb the train lines the Nazis were using to ship Jews and supplies to the camps.

352 There's an old Pagan ritual, of going to the ants nest and leaving a sacrifice to the ant queen, when you have ants in
your house, and telling the ant queen, that you don't
interfere with the ants' hive and they should not be in
your house.

I actually have tried this to mixed results.

When I was a kid I would go to the big red ant hill in our backyard and put a spiral of model airplane glue around descending from the top, and then I would push a stick in the top so they would all come boiling out. And then I would set the glue on fire. It was pretty cool.

come on what little boy doesn't love a sight like that? To the ants I was a god of Vengeance and Wrath!

I used to shop at a Market Garden in Nashua, NH. Walked to the back, pick out a 1.5 lb lobster, and they would cook while I did the rest of my shopping. Then went next door to Boston Market for side dishes. Drove home and had a nice inexpensive dinner.

364 AOP! what concentration of lye to water do you use for gas tanks?
Posted by: fd at November 03, 2023 12:58 PM (vFG9F)

I just did that a few days ago, and it worked fine. For the average gas tank, add enough water to bring the level above the worst of the gunk in the tank, and throw in 2 cans of Red Devil lye, say about a pound. Place tank level on top of a firepit or camps stove, and boil for a couple of hours. Make sure the fuel sending unit is out of the tank, and any outlet lines near the bottom are capped. Wear safety glasses! There is a slight chance that gas fumes might be driven out of the tank, run into the fire and ignite. It won't blow the tank to bits, but you might get a Whoof! and a spray of hot caustic. Outdoor work for sure.

when I turned 40 my lush full head of hair started to thin, and I just couldn't have that. So I went to the "drugstore" in Chinatown and asked for whatever they had to make your hair grow. The woman at the counter had to call her granddaughter to translate. They gave me this little bottle and told me to take six pellets a day. To this day I have no idea what was in the bottle but within a month my head of lavish full hair was back.

368 STOP THE HAMMERING IN SPACE!

Posted by: Lawrence O'Donnell at November 03, 2023 01:09 PM (63Dwl)

369 The UN and the rest of the world considers all Palestinians refugees that were forced to leave their homes when Israel was formed. This is a lie but one that has been kept alive by the Unit4ed Nations. Gaza is considered a refugee camp. Hamas thinks that it is the United Nations role to supply all the needs of these refugees including food, shelter nad medical care. UNWRA is there to provide for the refugees as well as multiple other NGOs. This has been the way it has been since Israel became a state. Gaza is just one big welfare con. Meanwhile, the leaders of Hamas have accumulated billions in assets as have the leaders of the PA.
The West has been funding this all along. Was not surprised to read today that Afghanistan is basically being supported in the same way. Same with Ukraine.
We continue to use our tax dollars to support fascist regimes bent on our destruction.
Bizarro world indeed.

We talked about it at the MoMe. After I let the tank air out for about 3 weeks I dumped 10lbs of rust out of it.

386 800k Gazans have moved south of the river. Those who did not are either there of their own volition, or because Hamas won't let them move south.

Once Israel has complete control of a line crossing Gaza south of Gaza City*, I would think it would be easier to move legitimate humanitarian aid to Gaza City-- IDF can inspect the trucks more easily than at Rafah.
