Hamas attacks Israel

[George K]

The IDF has notified Gaza that citizens have 24 hours (ending about 21:00 CDT) to evacuate the northern part of the area.

And then things will get serious-er.

Granted the distances aren't huge, but we're still talking about a million people.

Meanwhile Hamas is saying "Stay in your homes."

Hamas wants the PR value.

The day of jihad.

Wow this is hard to read.

@jon-nyc I cannot begin to imagine the whirlwind of emotions he must be feeling.

Israel has dropped thousands of papers over downtown gaza city telling them they have 24 hours to evacuate (I think that was like 12 hours ago), with a map showing a line of where they need to move beyond (aka south towards Egypt, to the southern part of the Gaza strip). Anyway... it's usually what happens before a town is about to get absolutely leveled. Could happen tomorrow?

[jon-nyc]

Probably ground invasion starts tomorrow.

[Rainman]

I assume Hamas will force people to stay put? Die if you stay, die if you try to leave?

[Horace]

I am guessing non-combatants in Gaza who hunker down and are found by Israeli soldiers, will be ok. The danger to them will be their use as human shields by Hamas.

Then there is the issue of what Hamas does to the Gaza civilians after Israel leaves. Will there be inquisitions about whether they fought back?

[Jolly]

I don't know what the Israelis are going to do, but I wonder whether a lot of civilians will curtail their artillery and guided munitions...

They’ve already started ground recon. Looking for hostages?

Should not even be an issue.

The objective is to annihilate Hamas once and for all.

There will be no Hamas to seek revenge on anyone let alone the residents of Gaza.

LOL

Does the doll identify as a dead baby?

“OK - you first, jack”

[George K]

Remember the reporter that Jordan Peterson talked with?

She speaks to the Poles…

[Copper]

I want to hear a presidential candidate talk like that guy.

"I don't care!"

What a great statement!

[George K]

Look at the frame that is captured in the link - the arrogance of this woman is on display. She should meet Dr. Peterson again. He’s not as nice now.

[Doctor Phibes]

There's a bit of an irony in Poland not taking any refugees. The rest of Europe is awash with Poles getting the fuck out of there in order to earn some money. I thought that guy was a wanker, TBH.

[George K]

Not quite true. He states that Poland has accepted a lot of refugees from Ukraine.

I have no knowledge of Poles leaving for better wages. Care to educate me?

Perhaps in a new thread to keep this one on topic (which I potentially derailed - my bad).
