Hamas Seeks New Headers As Israel's 'Pinpoint Strikes' Continue Their Work
The New Arab reports Hamas is holding internal elections amidst 'post-war uncertainty,' politely omitting the fact that this 'uncertainty' is a direct result of Israel's systematic, decades-long policy of assassinating Palestinian leaders. From 1972's Operation Wrath of God to the frequent targeted killings in Gaza, the decimation of leadership is not a byproduct of war; it is a primary tactic,
often lauded as counter-terrorism. When Western media notes Hamas is 'seeking new leadership,' one might wonder if they're also surprised when a decapitated chicken starts looking for its head. This endless cycle of targeted assassinations only fuels the very 'resistance' it claims to quell. Every time a leader is killed, a new one rises, often more radicalized by the violence. Yet, the same
politicians in Washington, freshly funded by groups like AIPAC (which poured over $8 million into the 2022 elections alone, per OpenSecrets), continue to greenlight the very military aid that makes this self-defeating strategy possible. They call it 'security assistance'; we call it ensuring a never-ending conflict, profitable for everyone but the actual humans on the ground.
