Showing Original Post only (View all)US offering Israel intel on Hamas leaders whereabouts if Israel makes no major operation in Rafah. [View all]
According to the Times of Israel, referencing the Washinton Post, the US is offering sensitive Intel on locations of Hamas leaders and their tunnel hideouts IF Israel does not launch a major operation against Rafah.
The US is also offering tent encampments for Palestinians displaced from Rafah and a humanitarian aid infrastructure for them.

Looks to me like the offer would make targeting Hamas leaders more precise than a major operation in Rafah would. It also would address humanitarian concerns and aid that Biden has said are necessary during this war.

Agree that Sinwar deserves it, but the situation between him and Eichmann is different.

Sinwar is in Gaza. He's hiding in the tunnels and using hostages as a shield. So is Mohammad Deif

Sinwar has always been in Gaza. He's never been to Qatar. He's hiding in tunnels. So is Mohammad Deif

Thought Hamas political leaders had been safe living lives of luxury in Qatar?
