Israeli officials said Hamas leader Yahya Sinwar was killed by Israel Defense Forces in the southern Gaza Strip on Wednesday. Hamas has not commented publicly on the reports.
Sinwar was the mastermind of the Oct. 7 terror attacks, which killed 1,200 people and set off Israel’s year-long war against Hamas in Gaza. Israel has made killing him a key objective, and may now be more willing to scale back its military operations in Gaza.
I just don’t see this changing anything.
Meh, it’s not a bad thing.
Killing Hamas (who did Oct 7) should make it easier to put things back together afterwards.
Bibi has to go first though, obviously, he’s 10 Sinwars.
I think it makes it a bit more difficult to escalate and therefore help elect Trump. For Bibi, Sinwar being at large is an unequivocal argument to keep on keeping on in Gaza. Now that he’s gone, he’ll have to use flimsier ones and whoever might push back, could push back harder.
Who is going to push back?
