The Morning Report — 10/24/23

Good morning, kids. It's looking like the section entitled "ISRAEL AT WAR" is proving to be a misnomer. Despite artillery and aerial bombardment that has reportedly taken out senior commanders and some numbers of the terrorists, Israel is not at war. Israel right now is merely playing at war. They have wasted precious time, is frittering away the energy, readiness and righteous rage of its frontline troops as well as its citizenry, and squandered the very limited window of opportunity afforded them by the rare generally worldwide outrage at the worst atrocity on the Jewish people since the Second World War, and worst of all are perhaps not only on the verge of losing the initiative but being transmogrified by its enemies into the actual aggressor.

If this sounds all too familiar, that's because it is. Every time Israel has had to deal with military incursions and operations to punish/neutralize the disease carrying cockroaches, (Islam being the disease and "Palestinians" the carriers) they wind up leaving them to fester just out of reach. While much of that is the fault of insane "international pressure," i.e. Jew-hatred, some of it for sure is their own fault, for whatever internal political dynamics there are in Israel.

But this time, "snatching defeat from the jaws of victory" is an understatement to say the least (unintentional Yogi-ism). Global as well as internal Israeli dynamics are such that letting Hamas, the "Palestinians" and Islam itself escape unscathed after what happened just over two weeks ago could quite possibly prove to be a death blow to Israel. And I do not think it's a stretch to conclude that if Israel goes, much of the free world (for your definition of the word "free") and whatever is left of what we hold dear is going to go soon afterwards.

The question of course is "Why?"

What’s taking so long? Why hasn’t Israel moved into Gaza and begun to obliterate Hamas? The answer, I’m afraid, is drearily predictable.

The death toll for the Hamas jihad massacres in Israel has now climbed over 1,400, yet over two weeks after the Oct. 7 attacks that appalled the world, the promised Israeli ground offensive has not yet materialized. The reason for the delay can be summed up in what the man who claims to be president would say were two words, and those words are that same man’s name: Old Joe Biden.

The Wall Street Journal reported Monday that “U.S. and European governments have joined to put pressure on Israel to hold off on its ground invasion of Gaza to allow more time to win the release of hostages held by Hamas, U.S. and foreign officials said.” That pressure almost certainly originates from the Biden regime, which showed its hostility to Israel from the beginning by restoring aid to the Palestinians after Trump had stopped that aid in view of their continuing support for jihad terror, and which reaffirmed that hostility just days ago, when Old Joe went all the way to Israel to stab our most reliable Middle East ally in the back and announce that he was giving $100 million to Gaza, which means, despite his denials, $100 million to Hamas. . .

. . . Every day the ground incursion is delayed, in fact, aids Hamas by giving it time to strengthen its defenses, set traps for Israeli soldiers, and stir up its populace with even more Jew-hatred and bloodlust than they get in ordinary times. At this point, it isn’t even completely certain that there will be any ground operation in Gaza at all, despite the fact that there can be no definitive end of Hamas without one, and so the bloody events of Oct. 7 will just be replayed on another day.

What the estimable Robert Spencer does not state in his analysis is that Joey Sponge-Brain Shits-Pants and most especially his dog-eating mutt stoner controller who is directly responsible for tearing this nation apart have a rabid hate on for Israel and Jews. Always have, always will. And if, that is to say when this is "replayed on another day," Israel will be finished and their dream of making Iran not just a counterbalance to Israel, as the psycho eggheads in Foggy Bottom want, but actually the sole power in the region will be realized.

Speaking of dog-eating mutt stoners, I give you your emetic for the day, with a hint of roast poodle and a soupçon of halitosis for some extra texture:

. . .the world is watching closely as events in the region unfold, and any Israeli military strategy that ignores the human costs could ultimately backfire. Already, thousands of Palestinians have been killed in the bombing of Gaza, many of them children. Hundreds of thousands have been forced from their homes. The Israeli government’s decision to cut off food, water and electricity to a captive civilian population threatens not only to worsen a growing humanitarian crisis; it could further harden Palestinian attitudes for generations, erode global support for Israel, play into the hands of Israel’s enemies, and undermine long term efforts to achieve peace and stability in the region.

Aside from the fact that the concept of "Palestine" and "Palestinian" are even more mythical than Shangri-La, Brigadoon and the tooth fairy combined, the Islamic attitude for Israel and Jews for the last millennum-and-a-half has not been exactly akin to Rodney King with a bottle of Coke (cola, not llello) doing a guest shot with the New Seekers in a rendition of "Kumbaya," now has it?

It is becoming more and more evident, to me anyway, that Biden and his handlers are gumming up the works intentionally. Despite carrier groups and aid money (allegedly) and the initial total bullshit of standing shoulder to shoulder with Israel, the actions of this junta, that is the illegitimate government of the United States is acting in alliance with Hamas.

Well, what about the American and other foreign hostages being held in Gaza? Don't you think, Sefton, that Biden has concern for them? Do. Not. Make. Me. Laugh. Joe Biden cares for the American citizens being held in Gaza about as much as he cared for the American citizens likely still trapped in Afghanistan. That is to say, fuck-all. Check that: he cares for them insofar as he can help Hamas use them as human shields to either delay or cancel an Israeli invasion. Hell, Biden is praying to whatever pentagram-induced demon he prays to for Americans to get killed so that he can condemn Israel to political death with its actual death perhaps his legacy in his, or his successor's, second term. The American and foreign citizens there are every bit as much being used as human shields by Biden, and other nations, as they are being used by Hamas.

Is that harsh? Is that hyperbolic? If you look at his/his handlers' words and deeds over the course of years as well as that of Foggy Bottom and the ivory tower Ivy League eggheads who have infected it for decades, as well as history, then I challenge you to draw any other conclusion.

Pause for a moment to consider now the video footage from 17 days ago and it is even more horrendous than the eyewitness accounts. And it's only going to get worse from there. So that leads us back to the question of why Israel is delaying this. Surely, if a somewhat enlightened Brooklyn schmuck like me can see what's going on, they can. Can't they?

How can they be worried about "non-combatants" when we have clear evidence that so-called non-combatant Gaza citizens joined in the raping, burning and pillaging with as much if not more savagery than the Hamas "fighters" (puke) who were amped up on some kind of crystal meth pervatin and Koranic excerpts (but mostly Koranic excerpts)? Bibi, baby. THIS IS WAR. Not only that, it's a very close doppelgänger to Operation Barbarossa. You were actually invaded by a military force whose main aim was not only mass murder of unarmed civilians but the attempted seizing and holding of territory.

I'll say it until my dying day: Israel must invade Gaza, flatten every building and kill every legitimate military target that walks on two feet without regard for civilian casualties and indeed any hostages. Those are secondary, at best, considerations.

The future of Israel hangs in the balance here. If they continue to sit on their hands, which is in my view a second front being waged against them by the junta-controlled United States, then soon enough, that future will be in doubt.

UPDATE: Commenter and friend Nevergiveup reminded me that with our attention focused on Gaza, there are still thousands of missiles, and who knows how many Hezbollah terrorists aimed at Israel from the north. The calculus might be to launch some kind of operation in that direction first. We shall see.

UPDATE 2: Commenter Biden's Dog sniffs a whole lotta malarkey, who is in Israel is reporting an incoming rocket barrage into central Israel from Gaza.
