The Morning Briefing: Israel Continues to Alter Terms of Hezbollah Leaders' Retirement Packages

Top O' the Briefing

Happy Wednesday, dear Kruiser Morning Briefing friends. Pudzwolkin forever cherished his magical summer as a Junior Fellow at the Chef Boyardee Institute.

We are fast approaching the tragic anniversary of the savage Hamas attacks on Israeli civilians that not only started a war but also revealed a lot of antisemitic ugliness all over the world. Israel, the actual victim, has been forced to defend itself for, you know, defending itself.

Until Joe Biden and his band of his radical progressive puppet masters began occupying the Oval Office, the United States of America was Israel's staunchest ally. During Israel's wholly justified war against Hamas, its government and its people have had to deal with mixed messaging and, on occasion, diplomatic threats from the superpower they could once count on.

The Biden administration has been leaning on Israel to enter into a ceasefire agreement with Hamas that would serve to do nothing more than give the terrorist group time to rebuild and get back to the business of slaughtering Israelis.

The Israeli government has been willing to consider the possibility, almost certainly because Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu and Company know that Hamas isn't likely to agree to anything. Meanwhile, the Israelis have proceeded apace with their mission to rid the planet of the terrorist organization that has continually vowed to destroy it.

Israel doesn't have the luxury of being lax about security, which means it hasn't been buffeted about by the whims of the "Free Palestine" campus lunatics who have been driving Biden administration policy in the region. Its leaders know what they have to do and have the will to do it.

Hamas, of course, is not the only Islamic terrorist organization bent on the destruction of Israel. Hezbollah has been working on that for a very long time as well. Its leaders have gotten to hang out in the background since last October, letting Hamas take the heat. Well, staying out of sight of everyone but Mossad.

After the Great Pager Attack of 2024 last week, the Israelis have continued to ignore Hezbollah's threats of retribution and keep up rather impressive pressure.

This is from Rick:

Ibrahim Muhammad Qubaisi, commander of Hezbollah’s missiles and rockets force, along with other Hezbollah commanders, were killed in a Beirut airstrike on Tuesday. The strike was one of 500 sorties Israeli warplanes flew to weaken Hezbollah's command and control structure and sow confusion in advance of what is widely expected to be an Israeli invasion.
"As Prime Minister Netanyahu said this week, Israel is 'not waiting for the threat; [it is] preempting it,'" Jacob Olidort, senior policy adviser at America First Policy Institute told Fox News. "Towards that end, Israel is not only removing munitions in southern Lebanon but is also targeting Hezbollah's command and control structure and its fighting force, as evidenced in recent days. The elimination of Ibrahim Qubaisi is part of this approach."
Last Friday, another Beirut attack killed Ibrahim Aqil, Hezbollah's operations commander and commander of its elite Radwan Force.

The leftists in the American mainstream media have, of course, been engaged in their usual song and dance that faults Israel for being provocateurs. If only those touchy Israelis would stop getting upset by incessant threats of jihadi-induced genocide.

The Democrats spent about 15 minutes after the attacks on 9/11 pretending that they condemned Islamic terrorism. Since then, they've been quick to scream "Islamophobia!" whenever someone points out the inconvenient truth that it's Islamic terrorists who keep blowing people up.

The Israelis have decided to get out in front of that whenever possible now, and it's working. Not only are the ranks of Hezbollah's leadership being rapidly depleted, but the Iranians are now spooked by what Mossad and the Israeli military might be up to. This is from something that Catherine wrote yesterday:

Here’s some explosive news: the terrorist-funding Iranian regime is so freaked out about Israel’s brilliant exploding pagers strike on Hezbollah that it reportedly banned communication devices for its jihadi Revolutionary Guards Corps (IRGC) until they could all be inspected.

Israel is serving notice to its enemies, and they're getting skittish. As Catherine said in her post, Israel is doing "the work of both itself and the United States in taking out terrorists and terrifying the world’s worst actors."

The bad actors have been having a field day while Joe Biden has been in office. He's addled and weak, and the people running his brain are terrorist sympathizers.

In both the short and long runs, the world will be a better and safer place because Bibi Netanyahu doesn't give a tinker's damn about what President LOLEightyonemillion and his commie cabal think.
