All I want for Christmas is for Portland to be burnt down by crazed homeless drug addicts. If you see a drug addict, give him matches and tell them they keep drugs in the police evidence room

TLDR: Israeli intelligence got the whole plan and watched Hamas rehearse it, but they still were so sure it could never work that this information didn't get passed up the chain of command.

Apparently this was leaked by Bibi to divert blame onto the military and intelligence agencies since they never bothered to tell him about it.

If an Arab saw a Palestinian and an Israeli drowning he'd push the Palestinian under and just hope the Israeli would drown on his own.

A user posted the question What opened your eyes to what's happening in Palestine? on [email protected].

As is evidenced, multiple comments have been removed by mods. The Mod log shows the moderator removing multiple of these comments due to "rule 1", which on lemmy.ml is:

>No bigotry - including racism, sexism, ableism, homophobia, transphobia, or xenophobia. Code of Conduct.

The mods then also banned some of the commenting users for a few days.

This all lead to a post by one of the affected users to AskLemmy, accusing the mods of "removing all comments critical of Hamas". "No comments critical of Israel were removed", the user alleges. The post has since been removed by the lemmy.ml jannies as well and the user banned for 14 days.

Every single hostage whom Hamas has released and will release from Gaza owes their freedom to President Joe Biden. That is an undeniable fact.

As I have noted previously, ever since the Oct. 7 carnage, Biden has steadfastly had Israel's back. He has done so at significant political risk to his reelection chances next year (more on this below). But this has not been his only or even his most significant contribution to the daily life-and-death developments in the Middle East. Throughout the past seven weeks, he has been personally involved and invested in the complex negotiations to rescue the Oct. 7 hostages in a way that is unprecedented for a sitting U.S. president.

Biden has communicated directly with a palpably unenthusiastic, bordering on negativistic Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu on at least 15 occasions, most recently on Sunday. The president also spoke at least three times each with Egyptian President Abdel-Fattah al-Sisi and Qatari Emir Tamim bin Hamad Al Thani, most recently with the latter on Saturday to resolve Hamas' delay that day in implementing the hostage-release agreement.

Reacting to the third release of hostages yesterday, including 4-year-old Avigail Idan, Biden said that he hoped that the precarious short-term truce could be extended to enable more hostages to be freed while at the same time humanitarian aid to Palestinian civilians in Gaza in the form of hundreds of trucks of food, water, medicine, fuel, and cooking gas a day could continue to flow.

"More is needed, but this deal is delivering lifesaving results," Biden said. "Critical aid is going in and hostages are coming out. This deal is structured so that it can be extended to keep building on these results. That's my goal, that's our goal, to keep this pause going beyond tomorrow so that we can continue to see more hostages come out and surge more humanitarian relief to those in need in Gaza."

Lol at the idea of Israel not keeping ground forces in the west bank. Look at what happened when they pulled out of Gaza.

Imagine being powerful and not playing the victim card:
