We are Preparing Hell for Hamas

Text:

Israel Treasury Minister Smotrich: “We are now preparing a very fundamental change in how we conduct the war in Gaza. We are preparing hell for Hams.” “I think there should have been no negotiations with Hams, but I can’t understand it even more when we will come to the table stronger with Trump in the White House in a few days.” “The deal in question leaves most of the hostages behind – and that must not be done.”

  1. @skeezix Before Carter and Reagan made a mockery of it.

    The negotiations during the Barbary Wars primarily focused on securing the release of American sailors captured by Barbary pirates by paying a “tribute” or protection money to the North African states of Algiers, Tunis, and Tripoli, in exchange for safe passage for American ships in the Mediterranean Sea; however, the United States eventually fought two wars to end this practice of tribute payments and gain freedom of navigation, ultimately refusing to pay further tribute and achieving a more forceful diplomatic stance against the Barbary pirates.
    Key points about the Barbary Wars negotiations:
    Early attempts at appeasement:
    When the United States first established itself as a nation, they initially tried to negotiate treaties with the Barbary states, agreeing to pay tribute to ensure the safety of American merchant ships.
    Leaders involved:
    Prominent figures like Thomas Jefferson, as Secretary of State, played a key role in these early negotiations, though he later advocated against continuing tribute payments.
    Tribute demands:
    The Barbary states often demanded large sums of money, sometimes including gifts and personal payments to their rulers, in exchange for the release of captured American sailors.
    Escalation to war:
    Despite attempts at diplomacy, the Barbary pirates continued to attack American ships, leading to the First Barbary War (1801-1805) and the Second Barbary War (1815) where the U.S. Navy engaged in military action to force the Barbary states to cease their practices.
    Final outcome:
    Through naval force, the U.S. eventually secured treaties with the Barbary states that ended the requirement to pay tribute, effectively ending the practice of Barbary piracy against American ships.

    Marina Medvin is quite correct. This is not just an anti-Bibi video, it is anti-Israel, and anti-MAGA, and conflicts with Trump’s own statements and policy positions.

  5. Whatever happened to

    Never Negotiate with Terror?

    Many years ago, the Russians had a Diplomat of theirs, who was kidnapped by Terrorists..

    The Russians Killed every single one of the Terrorists and the entire Extended Families of all of them as well…

    No one has Kidnapped a Russian Diplomat since…
