'Limited time' left on Earth: Israeli minister's threat to kill Hamas leader Yahya Sinwar

A senior cabinet minister has signaled that Israel is preparing to assassinate the leader of Hamas, the militant group that rules Gaza, testing a fragile ceasefire agreed last week.

Yoav Gallant, Israel's minister of construction and housing, has promised that Hamas leader Yahya Sinwar's "time is limited" and he "will not end his life in an old folks' home." The minister's threats did not end there, as he vowed that there would be another Israeli campaign in Gaza.

Israel and Hamas recently agreed to a ceasefire after several days of cross-border violence. The deal prompted the resignation of right-wing firebrand Avigdor Lieberman as defense minister.

In his last speech before stepping down, Lieberman accused the Israeli government of capitulating to Hamas and "terrorism," warning that the country was "feeding a monster" in Gaza that could become "a twin to Hezbollah" - a militant and political organization based in Lebanon.

After Lieberman's departure, Sinwar advised Israel "not to try and test us again," and warned against any assassination attempts or strikes against Gaza in the future.

"Anyone who tests Gaza will find death and poison. If we are attacked, we will let the barrage on Tel Aviv do the talking," Sinwar said. "Our missiles are more accurate, have a longer range and carry more explosives than before."

Over the course of my eighty-four years, some years in the Army, some first hand experience related to the Jewish operation from the earlier days to the present, deep understanding of the blind Jewish psychopathic determination and intention to cheat lie murder and annihilate any one and anything in their way. The Palestinians have been slaughtered and utterly dispossessed, and now the Jews and the "paid" Jewish supporters have a plan to finish them off entirely. My sense and reasoning tells me that it is all or nothing for the Palestinians now. We have seen Middle East migrant flows succeed; we can see it succeeding in Latin America; The Palestinian cause is the mightiest justified cause since the Exodus; time has demonstrated that no one is prepared to give them back their Palestine, where does that leave us?; there is only one possible answer, The Palestinians MUST return in large numbers and TAKE IT BACK. YES SOME WILL DIE, BUT THEY ARE DYING ANYWAY, AND NOT GETTING ANYTHING BACK FOR THEIR MARTYRS, WHAT PRAY, IS THE DIFFERENCE? Further, I would give my life for their cause, if called upon. The Palestinians have the "right", they must be the ones to go back and demand its restitution. Amen.

BEVAN BEVAN as near as I can tell. Britain established the state of Israel in may of 1948.

prior to that, this land had not been called Israel for over 2000 years.

what is really odd about this situation, is that. it is all members of basically the same faith. the Abrahamic faiths . that are fighting it out.

and after 70 years of turmoil and war. you want the original migrants to migrate back?

this is why we need to restore our US Constitution and enforce it. all of our states have their own nation guard and there is NO reason for the Federal Government to have a standing army. Amen

I wonder if the boys that have sex with their teachers get Straight A's? as a reward.
