Top US general said to lay out Washington's proposed alternative to Rafah offensive ‐ report | ||
2024-03-31 | ||
...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 Hamaswith 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 oppressionand disproportionate response... ’s southernmost city of Rafah during a recent conversation with IDF Chief of Staff Lt. Gen. Herzi Halevi, Israel’s public broadcaster Kan reports tonight. According to the report, Gen. Charles Q. Brown Jr., the chairman of the US Joint Chiefs of Staff, conveyed that the US would not "accept" mass civilian casualties in Rafah, given the toll of civilian deaths in north and central Gaza. The report says Brown summed up Washington’s proposal which includes securing Gaza’s border with Egypt with technological advances to prevent the smuggling of weapons through the Philadelphi Corridor, the isolation of the city of Rafah and the launch of targeted raids, and the establishment of a joint control room to coordinate on the targeted operations. The conversation occurred last week during a visit to Washington by Defense Minister Yoav Gallant, Kan reports. Israel is intent on operating in Rafah, Hamas, a contraction of the Arabic words for "frothing at the mouth",’s last stronghold in Gaza, to dismantle its last four battalions in the city. Washington and much of the Western world have signaled their opposition to the plan, amid mounting concern for over a million Gazooks who have taken refuge in the city from fighting in other areas. Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu and the Biden administration, the guys that caused the debacle in Afghanistan ...the pack of self-imagined masterminds of strategy and intrigue at the service of the Biden Crime Family and a grateful nation... have been locked in a growing public spat over the potential ground operation in Rafah. Last week, a plan to send a senior Israeli delegation to Washington to discuss a Rafah offensive was scrapped by Netanyahu after the US abstained from a UN Security Council vote on a resolution calling for a Gaza ceasefire, ensuring it would pass. A US official then said the sides were working on a new date for the inter-agency meeting.

#20 At this point, I think a Curtis LeMay firestorm plan would be the best starting option, followed by three days of rubble bouncing and then finally a second firestorm. Once completed, it will be sufficiently prepared for a combined arms entry. |

#16 So, General Brown, you've basically endorsed the use of human shields by terrorist groups. Is there a medal for this? |

#14 Shut the fuck up, you don't tell a sovereign nation what to do. When people are ordered to evacuate and don't, what happens is on them, not Israel. |

#7 When it was the War Department before it became the Department of the Army, how many wars did it win and how many after? When it was the War Department how many foreign adventures and commitments did it have? Would the old War Department standby when its southern borders were overrun? |

#6 the establishment of a joint control room to coordinate on the targeted operations. Will Brandon need to sign off on each individual rules of engagement? In real time, of course. |

#1 US would not "accept" mass civilian casualties in Rafah, given the toll of civilian deaths in north and central Gaza. Hey CQ, all they have to do is put down their weapons, raise their hands and surrender. Nobody gets hurt. Notice if you will, he made no comments on the hostages. |
