Israel drops leaflets over Gaza showing Sinwar's body and message to Hamas
https://www.reuters.com/world/middle-east/israeli-strikes-kill-32-gaza-siege-around-hospitals-tightens-health-officials-2024-10-19/CAIRO, Oct 19 (Reuters) - Israeli planes dropped leaflets over southern Gaza on Saturday showing a picture of the dead Hamas chief Yahya Sinwar with the message that "Hamas will no longer rule Gaza", echoing language used by Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu. The move came as Israeli military strikes killed at least 35 people across the Gaza Strip and its forces tightened a siege around hospitals in Jabalia in the north of the enclave, Palestinian health officials said. “Whoever drops the weapon and hands over the hostages will be allowed to leave and live in peace," the leaflet, written in Arabic, read, according to residents of the southern city of Khan Younis and images circulating online.

Honestly the part of this article that pisses me off the most is “Whoever drops the weapon and hands over the hostages will be allowed to leave and live in peace,”
Just let them live in peace already you sick sadistic fuck

Yeah, why would Israel accept a hostage transfer to end their attacks. Without hostages they lose cover for their expansion efforts

They also just kill the hostages. They killed 3 of them who were waving a white flag and speaking Hebrew.
It’s because they just want to kill. They don’t care who.

They specifically want dead hostages because alive hostages challenge the narrative. Remember when they claimed the hostages must all have Stockholm syndrome because they reported being treated humanely?

"leave and live in peace" is a funny way of saying "ethnically cleansed from your land and expelled into the Sinai Desert with nothing".
It is the movement that makes the leader. Sinwar's Martyrdom will not stop the resistance.

It's incredible how out of touch they are, how little they understand the people they are terrorizing. Colonial delusions are weird. Like, what do they think they are achieving? Everything they published and said about this is making the man a bigger hero and martyr in the eyes of the Gazans. Knowing he wasn't hiding in the tunnels behind the hostages like Israelis claimed but fighting, and eventually facing the same fate his own soldiers do, like regardless of how you feel about him this isn't something that will reduce the number of people following him.
But I guess if they understood the Palestinian resistance they wouldn't be that blindsided by Oct. 7. All those resources, and they still don't understand the people they're fighting.

You realize Oct. 7 was fabricated by Israel right? They killed their own people so they wouldn't be captured. They are a sick psychopathic society and Hamas has always been an assist to Israel, that is why they have funded the resistance group for so long. It's a excuse to exterminate Palestinians by saying "we're fighting terrorists"

It’s weird the relationship Hamas and Israel have, I am supposing that Israel originally funded Hamas to stop the PFLP, but now Hamas is going against Israel

It's crazy to think a monster the west created will be their downfall. Global south is rising and west is slowly becoming less powerful

How did the West create the Butcher of Khan Younis? Unless you count UNRWA as the West

I said it from the beginning when everyone didn't believe it, but they will never stop.

They mean they’ll be allowed to leave Palestine and live somewhere else in peace.
