Dem Sen. Merkley: We’re Moving Away from Saying Best Thing Is For Israel ‘To Always Know We Have Their Back’

On Thursday’s broadcast of MSNBC’s “Andrea Mitchell Reports,” Sen. Jeff Merkley (D-OR) stated that we’re in a transition away from our policy where “we basically said, the best way we can help Israel towards a future of peace is to always know we have their back, they’ll do the right thing. But now we have seen what has transpired in the West Bank with the daily de facto annexation through highways and settlements and outposts. We’ve seen that the despair has bred violence. We’ve got to be engaged towards a better future.”

Washington Post columnist defends ex-CNN photojournalist who allegedly carried grenade for Hamas terrorists

 A Washington Post columnist raised eyebrows Thursday when she rushed to defend the now-fired CNN photojournalist who allegedly carried war materiel for Hamas terrorists while effectively serving as their massacre videographer.

Megan McArdle went so far as to suggest in her defense of the Hamas-kissed photojournalist that she too might have held a grenade for terrorists if they'd been giving her a ride.
What's the background?

Israeli media watchdog HonestReporting revealed Wednesday that Hamas terrorists had some of their crimes against humanity captured in real time on film by Gaza-based photojournalists who had worked with mainstream outlets, such as the Associated Press, Reuters, CNN, and the New York Times. HonestReporting asked whether the journalists had coordinated with the terrorists and whether Western media outlets had signed off on their contributors embedding with Hamas.

The report named a number of photojournalists who appear to have been especially cozy with the terrorists, including Hassan Eslaiah, who served as a freelancer for CNN up until Thursday.

While a number of the Gaza-based photojournalists seemed to know just where to be and when to be there in order to capture photos of Israeli victims and Hamas destruction, Eslaiah's proximity stood out in the report.

HonestReporting indicated that Eslaiah posted now-deleted tweets with photos showing him in front of a recently destroyed Israeli tank without a press vest or markings to distinguish himself from the terrorists. While this may not have been enough to conclude that he was ethically compromised as a journalist, additional pictures emerged casting doubt on his journalistic distance from Hamas, including an image of Eslaiah being smooched by the terrorist mastermind of the Oct. 7 attacks. ..........

If Hamas can't force their human shields to stay they will lose the territory.

@joereal99

The Entire Middle East conflict can be boiled down to 3 words - Failure to Share.
In 47, the UN heard both Arab and Jewish claims and decided both had merit. The land was divided. Then 5 Arab Countries attacked and tried to Steal the Jewish land. If they had won, would they have returned 1 square inch in the past 75 years?

The Arab position has never changed - 100% land for Arabs, 0% for Jews.
How can that lead to Peace?

New top American general says Israeli goal of toppling Hamas ‘a pretty large order’

The Times of Israel By Jacob Magid 11/10/2023

Charles Q. Brown warns prolonging Gaza operation will drive more civilians to terrorism, as US military officials push IDF to be ‘more calculating and precise’ in its strikes

The top US military official indicated Thursday that Israel will have a harder time eradicating Hamas the longer its military campaign in the Gaza Strip drags out and the more civilians that are killed in the process.

US Joint Chiefs of Staff chairman Gen. Charles Q. Brown, asked whether he is concerned that the rapidly climbing non-combatant death toll in Israel’s war against Hamas will lead Palestinian civilians to turn to terror, responded, “Yes, very much so.

“And I think that’s something we have to pay attention to,” Brown told reporters in his first comments on the war in Gaza since he took over as the top US military official last month.

“That’s why when we talk about time — the faster you can get to a point where you stop the hostilities, you have less strife for the civilian population that turns into someone who now wants to be the next member of Hamas,” he said.

A senior Israeli official retorted to The Times of Israel that if the Israel Defense Forces is forced to work faster, it has less time to carry out operations surgically and in a manner that limits civilian casualties.

Brown, in his comments, called Israel’s war aim of toppling Hamas “a pretty large order,” while claiming that the campaign was focused on targeting senior Hamas leadership, which it might succeed in doing more quickly.
