For anyone watching the TikTok footage and following the other channels, it’s very clear that the Rafah bombing campaign has not reached anywhere near what the Jews were doing in Gaza City a few months ago.
It’s not totally clear why they are holding back. It’s almost like they’re waiting for something. Obviously, my mind immediately goes to the idea that they are preparing some kind of “false flag” type attack in the West in order to do a “see, we told you so – we have to kill all Moslems on our list!” in the Western media.
It’s possible there is some other reason they want to move slower, however. There is no way of knowing. I study the issue, and I don’t see a meaningful explanation as to why they started the Rafah attack and are now holding back.
It’s especially strange given that they are already committing atrocities, which are making headlines, but which are just on a much smaller scale than their usual routine.
Israeli air strikes killed at least 35 Palestinians and wounded dozens in an area in the southern Gaza Strip city of Rafah designated for the displaced, Palestinian health and civil emergency service officials said.
The Israeli military said its air force struck a Hamas compound in Rafah and that the strike was carried out with “precise ammunition and on the basis of precise intelligence.” It took out Hamas’ chief of staff for the West Bank and another senior official behind deadly attacks on Israelis, it said.
“The IDF is aware of reports indicating that as a result of the strike and fire that was ignited several civilians in the area were harmed. The incident is under review.”
The spokesman for the health ministry in the Hamas-run Gaza, Ashraf Al-Qidra, said 35 people were killed and dozens others, most of them women and children, were wounded in the attack.
The strike took place in Tel Al-Sultan neighborhood in western Rafah, where thousands of people were taking shelter after many fled the eastern areas of the city where Israeli forces began a ground offensive over two weeks ago.
Yes, so, it’s not as if they are changing strategies and actually trying to surgically target Hamas threats. They are still just killing random people on purpose.
(Hamas can’t really be targeted with bombs anyway because they live in the tunnels – the bombings are always against random innocent people.)
The International Committee of the Red Cross said its field hospital in Rafah was receiving an influx of casualties, and that other hospitals also were taking in a large number of patients.
Senior Hamas official Sami Abu Zuhri described the attack in Rafah as a “massacre”, holding the United States responsible for aiding Israel with weapons and money.
“The air strikes burnt the tents, the tents are melting and the people’s bodies are also melting,” said one of the residents who arrived at the Kuwaiti hospital in Rafah.
Earlier on Sunday, the Israeli military said eight projectiles were identified crossing from the area of Rafah, the southern tip of the Gaza Strip where Israel kept up operations despite a ruling by the top U.N. court on Friday ordering it to stop attacking the city.
It’s almost like the operations are specifically designed to spite the UN.
Killing a few hundred people will not accomplish the goal of ethnically cleansing Rafah, turning it into a second Gaza City. They need to kill tens of thousands more.
A number of the projectiles were intercepted, it said. There were no reports of casualties.
Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu was convening his war cabinet later on Sunday to discuss continued operations in Rafah. Israel argues that the U.N. court’s ruling allows room for some military action there.
In a statement on its Telegram channel, the Hamas al-Qassam Brigades said the rockets were launched in response to “Zionist massacres against civilians”.
Rafah is located about 100 km (60 miles) south of Tel Aviv.
…
Itamar Ben Gvir, a hardline public security minister who is not part of Israel’s war cabinet, urged the army to hit Rafah harder. “Rafah with full force,” he posted on X.
You’re going to see a mass bombing campaign in Gaza at some point. The Jews have made that clear and there is just no other way this could go.
Unless they pivoted to Lebanon. That seems unlikely, as the logical order is Rafah->Lebanon->Yemen->Iran.
But they could switch it up. We know this ends with a US war with Iran. We don’t necessarily know the steps. We can only speculate.
