Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu rejected calls from senior ministers to advance ceasefire negotiations and deliberately restricted all aid to Gaza in order to force a surrender from Hamas, internal government transcripts published by Israeli news outlet Channel 13 have revealed.
The transcripts from an Israeli war cabinet meeting on 1 March show that Netanyahu ignored repeated calls from senior defence officials to move to the second phase of the ceasefire agreement in order to secure the release of Israeli captives, and then to renew hostilities after.
Netanyahu instead chose to unilaterally break the ceasefire in March and bar all aid to Gaza, in the hopes of forcing a surrender by Hamas.
This was despite Hamas complying with the talks, contrary to the war cabinet’s expectations.
Don’t believe this BS. It was never about forcing Hamas to surrender. It is about killing as many Palestinians as possible.
It’s not even a leak if Netanyahu is tweeting in Hebrew that he’s blocking all aid from entering Gaza.
✨✨✨✨WAR CRIMES ✨✨✨✨
just another evidence in a pile of them showing that netanyahu is a war criminal.
but he’s best friends with the west, so oh well.
War criminal.
Warsaw Ghetto repeat. Albert Einstein is 100% correct!
Netanyahu is a bitch ass terrorist. He will go down in history as our generation’s hitler. People who invent the Time Machine will go try to kill him before they go back to the 40’s.
Netanyahu is the shit stain of the Israelites.
No, no this has to be fake. I specifically remember this gentleman saying he wasn’t starving people at all. You really think someone would just, go around telling lies like that?
Hamas doesn’t care about Palestinians!
We will collectively punish Palestinians to put pressure on Hamas
Israel in a nutshell.
something everyone could see since the Palestinians are livestreaming their own holocaust, but thanks for leaking it I guess.
This stuff has been said in public statements why does it need to be “leaks” lol.
Because now it’s news-worthy, starving children is not a topic for them on its own.
This was despite Hamas complying with the talks, contrary to the war cabinet’s expectations.
If the war cabinet was actually surprised Hamas was reasonable then they’re just as brainwashed as their idiot population
to move to the second phase of the ceasefire agreement in order to secure the release of Israeli captives, and then to renew hostilities after.
I genuinely don’t know why the Hannibal directive is even a thing; whether Hamas does or doesn’t have hostages, it wouldn’t stop or limit Israel’s genocidal actions.
We don’t need leaks to know that. Just look at the Israelis deliberately stopping aid and food trucks going into Gaza. It’s not just Bibi. Most of the Israelis seem very okay with this, and some even participate into blocking food and aid. So, no surprise there.
EDIT: Oh and let’s not forget the Israelis that are organizing BBQs on the side of the border. I’m sure it’s all a misunderstanding.
No shit, other than the ‘to cause hamas surrender’ bit which is another unsurprising lie
like Churchill before him
