Sinwar, the architect of the October 7 attacks, was a top target for Israel. After months of Israel claiming that Sinwar was hiding in tunnels behind “human shields,” the Hamas leader was gravely wounded by tank fire when he was above ground and alone, as he sat on a chair covered in dust in a ruined apartment, according to drone footage released by the Israeli military.
Following the news of Sinwar’s death, Sen. Richard Blumenthal, D-Conn., said in a post on X: “After recent conversations w/leaders of Israel, Saudi Arabia & UAE, I have real hope that Sinwar’s death creates truly historic opportunities for Israel’s security, cessation of fighting & regional peace & stability through normalization of relations. The moment must be seized.”
Just beneath the surface of Blumenthal’s remarks is a widely discussed mega-deal that would effectively create a U.S.-Gulf regime neo-colony in Gaza, commit the U.S. to going to war for Saudi Arabia, and plunge us deeper into a new cold war with China.
Idiots think war is just like a Nintendo game where you kill the enemy leader and everyone gives up, lmao. No wonder Israel can’t seem to have any success in Lebanon.
Yes, and that’s why those in power are using this moment to try to sell us on this story, and it’s chances of success.
Don’t see how it changes the conditions on the ground in Palestine, however.
Narrative-wise, they become no longer Palastenians, but Saudis who are disobeying their King/Prince. It does NOT change anything for the better.
