President Biden Seeks Intervention to Save Hamas from Defeat

 Hamas is on the brink of defeat in Gaza.Israel has discovered its industrial scale tunnels to Egypt and is securing the last Hamas stronghold in Rafa. President Biden wants a cease fire to allow Hamas to continue to exist as a kind of sourdough starter of terrorism against Israel in the future. It is as if he wanted Al Qaeda to have a secure place in New York to begin operations against D.C.

The rational end of the war with Israel eliminating Hamas requires that they control the borders of Hamas and vet a civilian Palestinian government dedicated to peace and not importation of rockets to use against Israel (as well as suicide bombers). War is a sad thing yet so is rescuing defeat from the jaws of victory. The removal of Hamas is necessary for the establishment of a secure, peaceful Palestinian entity on the road ahead. Meanwhile delivering food to hungry Palestinians should be encouraged with more effort from the international sponsors of relief.

Wars are terrible events and should be discouraged by politicians. Yet one cannot be on bloth sides of every conflict. To halt the war before Hamas is deleted from the Gaza is to allow a restoration of a terrorist government rearming its arsenals ASAP to launch another war on the Jewish state. One might believe that just giving Hamas another chance to attack is the policy of European closet neo-Nazis and fellow travelling radical Muslims.
