Good day all. Last week, we had some good news. The Israeli Defense forces located and rescued four hostages that had been held by Hamas since the October 7th terrorist attack. The saved hostages have been reunited with their families and are being checked out by doctors.
Apparently, the hostages were being held in a civilian area, (Big surprise), and the IDF did what they needed to do. This has, of course, set off the pro-terrorist Nazis in the Ivy League and other Center’s of Higher Re-Education. It also didn’t make Dementia Joe all that happy. Israel is, of course, ignoring the morons and idiots. Here are the details of the raid from Fox News:
New details about Israel’s bold rescue of four hostages are coming to light with the Israeli Defense Forces (IDF) describing the daytime operation as a “high-risk, complex mission” that was “surgical” in its precision.
The IDF spent weeks planning this read once they identified the location. One thing they appear not to have done was said anything to the dumpster fire known as the Biden Maladministration.
Officers of the National Police special anti-terror unit of Yamam along with Shin Bet agents simultaneously raided two Hamas buildings to pluck the three male hostages and one female hostage to safety. The soldiers had been undergoing intense training for weeks in preparation for the rescue mission, Hagari said.
Noa Argamani, 26, was rescued at one site, while Almog Meir Jan, 22, Shlomi Ziv, 41, and Andrey Kozlov, 27, were taken from the second location. Argamani has been one of the most widely recognized hostages since video of her abduction was among the first to surface. She can be seen in the video between two men on a motorcycle with one arm outstretched and the other held down as she screams “Don’t kill me!”
I truly hate to think what that woman has gone through since October 7th. That she has been raped repeatedly is probably a foregone conclusion, and she is going to need a lot of help. The best help she could receive, besides being rescued, is the utter and complete annihilation of Hamas.
During the operation, Chief Inspector Arnon Zmora, 36, an officer in the special anti-terror unit of Yamam, was critically injured and later died from his injuries. He leaves behind a wife and two children.
My condolences to the family of Chief Inspector Zmora.
Under 100 Palestinians were killed in the raid, Hagari said.
Well, that isn’t what the Gaza Health Officials are claiming. I think they are saying some 50,000 babies and children were killed in the rescue or something. Let’s see what NBC News has to say about this:
Gaza’s Ministry of Health said 210 people were killed and another 400 were injured in the assault and rescue operation. It’s unclear how many were civilians.
Uh huh, well, I guess it wasn’t their usual announcement that one shot from an IDF soldier killed 50K babies. They must be trying to dial back the lies a bit to something that people might actually believe.
Observers and organizations based outside the war zone generally condemned the bloodshed.
And they blame it all on Israel for having the gall to defend themselves and not just die like they should. As to the potential civilian casualties? Consider where the hostages were found. Returning to the Fox News story:
Hagari said Hamas has been holding hostages inside civilian buildings, and Israeli intelligence was able to pinpoint two of these buildings in Nuseirat where families were staying with armed guards inside.
How typical of Hamas and the Palestinians. Put military stuff, such as weapons, ammunition and explosives into schools, hospitals and private homes and then claim they were “Civilian” locations and shouldn’t have been hit.
The buildings were about 650 feet apart, and Israeli forces decided to move on both buildings at the same time because they feared Hamas might kill hostages in one of the buildings if they saw the other coming under attack.
“This is a huge risk because they might have thought that we were preparing for another raid,” Hagari said. “You have to understand that they’re moving the hostages from flat to flat.”
The levels of usable intelligence the Israelis were able to generate is astounding. I wonder if they had a source who spotted the hostages and kept watch? Another thing the Israelis did was hit the terrorists during the day.
Hagari said the decision to carry out the mission during the day was also to bring about an element of surprise because Hamas would not have been expecting it.
“In the daytime, you take more risks to make sure the surprise element is kept, and we understood that inside the flats it would give us leverage,” Hagari said. “We surprised them completely, but it was still hard,” he said.
Normally, soldiers in this situation prefer to go in shortly before dawn. There is an actual biological reason for this. People tend to be at their lowest levels of alertness at that time. However, because this is the “Traditional” time for an attack, the defensive forces will make sure that the guards are fresh and alert at that time.
Hitting them in daylight is not usual. Also, the Israelis used helicopters, which are not known for being very sneaky. (A loud collection of parts and leaks generally moving in the same direction at about the same speed is how they are referred to) The flip side is that the IDF is flying all over the place and has total control of the air. Seeing a couple of choppers flying wasn’t going to really alert anyone, right up until they landed on the target.
Hagari said under 100 Palestinian casualties were reported, and he wasn’t sure how many of them were terrorists.
I have a simple answer. All of them.
“But they were using the civilians to embed them with the hostages. They were using the civilians to fire on the Israeli forces when they went out. And from the operation at this level, so many fires was a lot of force. We needed to fire from the air and from the street,” Hagari said.
“And some of the casualties were terrorists in the [prepared] targets that we had, and the Air Force conducted the fire during the operation.”
I don’t have a problem with this at all. Hamas and the Palestinians started this. They never expected Israel to decide to play their version of the old American came of “Cowboys and Hamas.”
Minister of Defense Yoav Gallant described the mission as one of the “most heroic and extraordinary operations” he had witnessed over the course of his 47 years serving in Israel’s defense establishment.
“Our troops showed so much courage operating under heavy fire in the most complex [urban environment in Gaza],” Gallant said.
“I do not remember having completed operations of this kind at this intensity and with this level of cooperation and success.”
While we don’t have all the details, one that does come to mind is Operation Thunderbolt. That was the Israeli raid on Entebbe to free the hostages from a group of terrorist hijackers. I don’t know if this one will rise to the level of complexity of the Entebbe raid, but it was no less risky for the rescuers and the hostages.
One final thing to remember. If that senile pedophile, Joe Biden, had gotten his way and a cease fire was in place, the IDF wouldn’t have been able to carry out this rescue mission. As far as I’m concerned, Israel should just ignore that idiot and all the Obama holdovers who support Hamas in the State Department. Carry On Israel! Send the IDF some pizza today.

If it fires a weapon, it is NOT a civilian, it is a combatant
