Death toll rises to 1,560 as Netanyahu orders to starve Gaza

[GEO.TV] Fears of ground invasion are growing as Israel is escalating measures against the Hamas
...the well-beloved offspring of the Moslem Brotherhood,...
-controlled Gazoo
...Hellhole adjunct to Israel and Egypt's Sinai Peninsula, inhabited by Gazooks. The place was acquired in the wake of the 1967 War and then presented to Paleostinian control in 2006 by Ariel Sharon, who had entered his dotage. It is currently ruled with an iron fist by Hamas with about the living conditions you'd expect. It periodically attacks the Hated Zionist Entity whenever Iran needs a ruckus created or the hard boyz get bored, getting thumped by the IDF in return. The ruling turbans then wave the bloody shirt and holler loudly about oppression and disproportionate response...
Strip to a "total blockade" including a ban on the supply of food and fuel to war-ravaged Paleostinians in the resource-strapped Arab country.
Sure could use those greenhouses Sharon left behind right about now?
According to Israel's foreign ministry, at least 1,000 Israelis, including civilian and security forces, have been killed by Hamas, while Paleostine's health ministry has put the tally of martyred Gazooks at 687, injuring 3,727.

HAMAS THREATENS TO EXECUTE HOSTAGES
Meanwhile,
...back at the comedy club, Boogie was cracking himself up, but nobody else seemed to be getting the non-stop jokes...
al-Jazeera reported that Hamas's Qassam Brigades had said they would start executing Israeli civilian hostages and broadcast the execution live if Israel dropped another bomb on civilian residential areas without any prior warning.

"Any targeting of innocent civilians without warning will be met regretfully by executing one of the captives in our custody, and we will be forced to broadcast this execution," said Abu Obeida, a front man for Hamas' Qassam Brigades told al-Jazeera.

"We regret this decision but we hold the Zionist enemy [Israel] and their leadership the responsibility for this," he said while talking to al-Jazeera Arabic.

ISRAEL'S BIGGEST MOBILISATION
Israeli defence minister Yoav Gallant on Monday described the move as part of a battle against the Paleostinian group as Israel's troops were still battling Monday to clear out Hamas button men more than two days after they burst across the fence from Gaza on a deadly rampage.

The Israeli army said it would soon go on the offensive after the biggest mobilisation in Israeli history.

METICULOUS DECEPTION
Hamas executed a meticulous two-year campaign of deception that caught Israel off guard during a devastating attack, marking the worst breach in Israel's defences since 1973.

The group concealed its military intentions while presenting an image of economic focus. They trained openly, mocked military preparations, and showed restraint in prior operations, lulling Israel into complacency.

Israel shifted its focus away from Hamas, failing to detect their plan. Hamas avoided leaks and executed a multifaceted attack, exploiting Israeli weaknesses.

The consequences led Israel to vow the destruction of Hamas, emphasising the need to address the threat posed by the group.

#9  #7 Also, poison their water supplies with rat poison and then watch the festivities. Hey, maybe even film them and stream that back into Gazoo - they seem to be big on that sort of thing. If you want to reach the natives, you gotta speak their language, capisce?

#7  No need to invade, bomb or shell Gaza. Blockade and starve. I'd cut flow of water too. People start dying of thirst after what, three days?

And don't forget one weapon Israelis have that is not in short supply and for which Tehran is a tempting target.

#6  See General Sherman's letter to the mayor of Atlanta. He said it much better than I ever could.

#2  Israel has made a major mistake
I just remember that few months ago Israel was down 80% on their ammo, the rounds the US took from Israeli stockpiles to give to Ukraine cannot be substituted on the fly ,they basically can't sustain combined armed warfare, the 2014 Gaza war took 34,000 rounds of artillery alone.
Even if they have hundreds of thousands left, they can only use a fraction of them on Gaza since they need enough that they could fight a high intensity war with Egypt, Syria, and Lebanon if they intervene... let alone if Iran and Iraq and the Taliban and Yemeni start sending forces Most likely the main object of this suicide attack by HAMAS is to seriously deplete the IDF ammo stockpiles as well as to internationalize a frozen conflict.
