Middle East Topic 78: Why Did Israel Attack Rafah?

author:Official number Herodotus

On the 7th local time, the Israeli army announced that it had taken control of the Rafah crossing on the side of the Gaza Strip. The Rafah crossing is currently closed. The official Palestinian news agency reported that since the Rafah crossing is the main route for aid to enter the Gaza Strip and for the wounded and sick to evacuate from the Gaza Strip, the Israeli army's capture of the Rafah crossing will have a great impact on the humanitarian situation in Gaza.

After months of staggering between Israel and Hamas, Israel finally made up its mind and sent troops to capture the Rafah port despite the opposition of world public opinion.

Israel captures the Rafah crossing

1. Why did Israel capture the Rafah crossing?

According to Israel: the complete elimination of the Hamas forces

The Israeli Prime Minister's Office issued a statement on the evening of May 6 local time, saying that the wartime cabinet unanimously decided to continue the operation in Rafah, a city in the southern Gaza Strip, in order to exert military pressure on Hamas, so as to promote the release of the abductees and achieve other combat goals. Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu reiterated that Hamas would not be allowed to regain control of Gaza.

"Hamas demands that we withdraw all our troops from Gaza, end the war, and put Hamas in power, and Israel will not accept it," he said. ”

He asked rhetorically, "Is this what our sacrificial heroic sons and daughters are trying to achieve?" The answer is: no! "If that happens, it's only a matter of time before the next October 7 is a matter of time, and Hamas will be able to deliver on its promises of massacres, rapes and kidnappings time and time again."

Israel's seizure of the Rafah crossing was aimed at the complete elimination of the Hamas forces, and attention should be paid to the elimination of the Hamas forces, not Hamas.

The deeper purpose is to solve the impossible triangle of Israel's statehood.

2. The policy at the beginning of the founding of the People's Republic of China was impossible from the beginning:

The Jews are the main (only) people, the second is modern democracy, and the third is the whole of Palestine (the blessed land recorded in the Bible).

In fact, only two of these three can be achieved at the same time:

2 Modern democracy and 3 the whole territory of Palestine must be given equal political rights to all the peoples in the territory, and there is no way to achieve 3 Jewish one;

If you want 1 Jewish only and 3 Palestine, you can only exterminate the Arabs in the territory, so there is no way to get 3 modern democracy;

2 A democratic system and 1 a Jewish Juche state can only be satisfied with the existing land and give up 3 the land actually occupied by the Palestinians.

In the past, Israel had adopted the method of pretending that the occupied Palestinian territories within its territory did not exist and then encroaching on them bit by bit. What is actually going on is to abandon the modern democratic system of government, in essence become a fascist state, and force the ethnic minorities within its territory to death.

3. Can Israel completely eliminate Hamas?

Let's assume that Israel will descend from heaven, and in another year, Israel will kill 2 million people in Gaza, what about the West Bank? And what about two million people, will there be Hamas there? How much time will it take for Israel to kill the West Bank again?

Map of Israel

After killing Hamas in the territory, there are still 6 million Palestinians in Jordan next to them, are they Hamas (Jordan still has 110,000 troops)? After killing Hamas in Jordan, what will happen to the Lebanese Allah Hamas (100,000 troops, 5 million people)? What about Hamas, the Syrian government army that has been robbed of the Golan Heights ° gritting its teeth (200,000 troops, 20 million people)? Is it 10 million Israelis (and 2 million Arabs in it?) Do you want to kill it? ), 300,000 Heavenly Soldiers IDF just killed them one by one?

It is important to know that Hamas is not only an armed organization, but also an ideological and civil movement. Hamas is inexhaustible.

IV. Israel's Future

Historically, the nation of Israel was bound to perish. Israel's founding in the last century and its subsequent history are somewhat similar to the small Christian principalities established in Palestine during the Crusades, both of which were agents of extraterritorial colonial powers. You think that the Israeli right is stupid, which means that you do not understand the status quo in Israel. The reality is that the Israeli right has no choice, and the situation in Israel is more complicated than you think, and Israel shaped by the Jewish media empire are two different scenes.

Israel's current situation is similar to that of the Kingdom of Jerusalem during the Crusades.

King of Leprosy - Baldwin IV

Veteran crusaders such as Raymond and the Hospitaller (the assassinated Rabin) knew how many pounds and taels Saladin had in the face of Saladin's growing power, and they had fiefs and sought to reconcile with the Saracens (Arafat), while the new Frankish knights such as Guy and Renard lacked fiefs (new immigrants, supported the right wing), and those in power refused to give up their existing benefits to the new knights, so they advocated external expansion. At the same time, Jerusalem's continued struggle from Europe to pray, in order to counter Saladin's growing power, further exacerbated this contradiction, and finally after the death of the Leper King, the crusaders thought that they were still in the position of friend and foe during the Mongisa period (50 years have passed since the last victory in the Middle East War in 1974, almost the time between the victory of World War II and the collapse of the Soviet Union), and chose to take the initiative to attack and finally annihilate the army at the Battle of Hardin.

Of course, it is no exaggeration to say that the 21st century, with the war on terror and the Arab Spring in the Middle East, is now almost the worst period in the modern history of the Arab world. The trajectory of a nation's development movement is like an iron pot, and now it is at the bottom of the pot, and no matter how it goes, it will get out of the predicament.

This is Israel's dead knot!
