As new Gaza commander comes in, IDF says its finger is on the trigger

Southern Command chief: ‘We do not pursue war, nor do we fear it’; outgoing division chief heads to Ground Forces

ed note–please keep in mind this infamous quote from Golda Meir–

‘We can forgive the Arabs for killing our children, but we cannot forgive them for forcing us to kill their children. We will only have peace with the Arabs when they love their children more than they hate us.’

This is how the practitioners of Judaism do it. Just as Jesus described them, they are like white-washed tombs, beautiful on the outside, but inwardly, full of dead mens’ bones. They engage in linguistic sorcery in order to create the image that they are driven only by the highest moral values, when in actuality, their bloodthirsty, barbaric behavior reveals them for exactly what Jesus described them as being– ‘children of their father, the devil’.

That they do not ‘pursue war’ is as blatant a lie as saying that the sun rises in the West. Without war, the entire experiment in Judaic hegemony in the Middle East would come apart like a cheap suit. The ceremonies in human sacrifice that are waged against the defenseless people of Gaza with regularity are no different than the spectacles that used to take place in ancient Rome featuring people being fed to lions. It is done to hold together an organically fractured and schizophrenic society and make Jews stop arguing amongst themselves and instead focus on the bloodsport that is taking place.

Times of Israel

Israel is not pushing for another war in Gaza, but the army is prepared for it, the IDF’s Southern Command chief warned during a ceremony for the incoming head of the Gaza Division.

“We are not desirous of war, but we do not fear it’s coming,” Eyal Zamir said. “The plans are ready, the cannons of the tanks are greased.”

At the unit’s headquarters near the southern border, Zamir bade farewell to the outgoing commander Brig. Gen. Itay Virov and welcomed Brig. Gen. Yehuda Fuchs into his new position as head of the Gaza Division, which is responsible for operations inside Gaza as well as the security of Israel’s border with the coastal enclave.

“I hope the quiet will be preserved and maintained through strength for as long as possible, by both sides, to improve civil and economic development, as well as for the welfare of the populations on both sides of the border,” Zamir said.

Saying farewell to Virov, who took over the position soon after the 2014 Gaza war, Zamir told the crowd: “Itay, an attack-oriented officer, shows initiative, but also knows restraint and moderation in the use of force.”

Virov will transfer to the Ground Forces command of the Israel Defense Forces and will move up in rank from brigadier general to major general.

Fuchs, who previously served as chief infantry officer and head of the Nahal infantry brigade, recognized the difficulties of leading the volatile Gaza Division, but said he was up to the task.

“I commit to defend the country’s border and to allow a good life for all those who value life,” Fuchs said. “I am receiving a division that is strong, trained, well-exercised and skilled — a prepared division.”

Though the situation is decidedly tense, the two years since the 2014 war have been the calmest along the Gaza border in over a decade.

Earlier this month, the IDF uncovered an attack tunnel dug by Hamas inside Israeli territory. This was the second such tunnel found since the end of the Gaza war, known in Israel as Operation Protective Edge.

The discovery of the second tunnel sparked small-scale clashes with Hamas, who fired mortars at the Israeli troops stationed on the southern border with the Gaza Strip. A few IDF engineering vehicles were damaged in the attacks, but no Israeli soldiers were injured.

However, a Palestinian woman was killed and a number of others were injured in a retaliatory Israeli tank strike.
