After the IDF Takes out the Hamas Trash, What’s Next?

Interesting piece on what happens after Israel takes Gaza, written by friend, mentor, soldier, and fellow bourbon and cigar consumer, Mike Ford. Enjoy, and feel free to spread.

After the IDF Takes out the Hamas Trash, What’s Next?

Once the stalwart troops of the Israeli Defense Force finish taking out the Hamas trash, what’s next in Gaza and for the Gazans?

 It’s been over a month since Hamas launched its terror attack on the State of Israel. Some might opine that “death, is death,” no matter the motivations of the killer or how he chooses to inflict that death on his victim. In this case, no thinking, feeling person could buy that false equivalency. The Hamas terrorists have murdered well over a thousand Israeli men, women and children,  some who were infants in the crib. (Note to readers, graphic, distressing imagery below). 

Knowing a little of Israeli history and given the sheer savagery of the Hamas attacks, I have no doubt that the Israeli Defense Force (IDF) will have no difficulty destroying every bit of Hamas infrastructure. There is also no doubt that when the IDF gets done, if not unduly hindered by inept meddling by the Biden State Department, what will remain of the Hamas fighting force, will be a few low level street thugs, hiding under the skirts of women refugees in Egyptian or Jordanian camps.

So what’s next? What needs to happen when the IDF gets done taking out the Hamas trash? Prime Minister Netanyahu has some thoughts, as do the usual suspects in the Biden Administration.

KHAN YOUNIS, Gaza Strip — Israel will take “overall security responsibility” in Gaza indefinitely after its war with Hamas, Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu said, the clearest indication yet that Israel plans to maintain control over the coastal enclave one month into a conflict that has claimed thousands of lives and leveled whole swaths of the territory.

From my foxhole, there is no way that Israel can sustain a long term occupation of Gaza, without outright annexing it.  The main obstacle to that wouldn’t be Israeli capability, but rather the distorted manner in which necessary Israeli security actions are presented to the World by the leftists and their media enablers. Israel as an occupier would be prohibited from using the lawful tools it needs, to maintain order and stability. Enter-an international occupation and supervisory organization and military force.

The Gazan’s need two things: A stable government along with internal security and protection from groups like Hamas. 

Israel, on the other hand, needs a neighbor that doesn’t pose a threat to its infants in the crib.

The bumbling Biden Administration has  actually and quietly proposed a U.S. force to fill the security role. (Hat tip: Nick Arama at RedState )

Biden administration ‘holds secret talks on stationing American troops in Gaza’ after Hamas is defeated – but US officials fear deepening political peril after Israel shelled a refugee camp

That’s a non-starter. It would be patently absurd to put U.S troops into a peacekeeping situation such as this. There is no way they would be viewed as an unbiased arbiter.

I’ve also heard back-channel info that I cannot yet confirm, that there might be the possibility of the Egyptians and Israelis cooperating in such a venture. Such an international, ad hoc organization would be just the trick. The organization would be composed of mostly Arab contributions from countries who have given diplomatic recognition to Israel. Ideally, Israel should also be of the participants in order to to look after its own interests. 

Whether or not Israel is included in such an ad hoc politico-military stability organization, it’s imperative that the two biggest stakeholders, other than Israel, have a position of primacy in this effort. Without Egypt and Jordan involved, this effort would fail, as would the involvement of the corrupt organization known as the United Nations.

Having Egypt, Jordan and other friendly Arab nations ramrodding the rebuilding, governance and security effort will have multiple benefits. Most importantly, is international perception. It will be much more difficult to chastise Arab nations doing peacekeeping among other Arabs. This is a rare opportunity. The Biden State Department should quietly but intensively, advocate for this among the 3 primary stakeholders, Israel, Egypt and Jordan.

If they cannot, we will see more of this…much, much more.
