(Office of the Iranian Supreme Leader via AP) Not long before the ceasefire was concluded, Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu said this about Hamas: “They received blows that they didn’t expect. And I have no doubt we set them back years.” Although there was no reason to doubt Netanyahu’s word, others were framing the outcome of the conflict differently. Iran’s Supreme Leader, the Ayatollah Khamenei, tweeted : “I thank God for His aid and the honor bestowed on Palestinian fighters. I extend my congratulations for victory over Zionist criminals.” He wasn’t just putting a good face on the imbroglio. He had good reason to claim victory.
Nor was Khamenei the only one who did so.

Abu Ubaida, the spokesman for Hamas’ armed wing, was likewise exultant: “With the help of God, we were able to humiliate the enemy, its fragile entity and its savage army.”

In Islamic law, an Islamic army, which Hamas and its allies undoubtedly constitute, doesn’t ask for or want a ceasefire unless it is losing. And Hamas, according to Israeli Intelligence Minister Eli Cohen , was “begging for a ceasefire.”
Who jumped to give Hamas what it wanted? Joe Biden’s handlers, of course. CNN reported Wednesday that according to the White House, Old Joe Biden told Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu “‘that he expected a significant de-escalation today on the path to a ceasefire’ in the raging violence. The statement was a signal Biden is losing patience with Netanyahu, a leader he has […]
