Israel’s Defense Minister says that the Jewish state is “fighting human animals” and will “act accordingly” as Israeli forces pound the Gaza Strip and kick off what they say will be a total war with Hamas after the Palestinian Islamic militants launched historically unprecedented attacks against Israel, killing hundreds of people, including American citizens, and taking dozens more captive.
Israeli Defense Minister Yoav Gallant has announced a “complete siege” of the Gaza Strip, the small sliver of territory that Hamas and an estimated 2 million other Palestinians call home. In the immediate aftermath of Hamas’s attacks on Israel, the Israelis have launched hundreds of airstrikes into Palestinian territory, and an estimated 1,200 people from both sides are dead.
“I have ordered a complete siege on the Gaza Strip,” Gallant announced on Monday. “There will be no electricity, no food, no fuel, everything is closed. We are fighting human animals and we act accordingly.”

As Israel fights Hamas in the Gaza Strip, widespread concern has developed that Hamas sleeper cells are laying in wait in the United States, having entered the nation through its porous southern border. Hamas having illegally entered the US is no “conspiracy theory” either, with the Islamic radicals having long been known to cohort with Latin American drug cartels.
Concern is also growing that Israel will soon face attacks from the north by Lebanon-based Hezbollah, another Islamic radical group that’s been long tied to Latin America, having worked on record with not just drug cartels, but the government of Venezuela.
Both groups have also long been backed by Iran, and now, Western war hawks are ramping up their anti-Iranian rhetoric, with GOP presidential candidate Nikki Haley joining Fox News to call for the nation’s destruction, by way of yet another massive Middle Eastern conflict that would inevitably rely on the United States.

Though Iran has been blamed by Nikki Haley and others in the West for backing Hamas and helping to plan their attacks on Israel, according to video footage reported on by National File, Hamas is crediting US-backed Ukraine with arming their legions of Islamic radicals, and promising that the weapons from Zelenksy’s failed state will be used to destroy Israel.
“We thank the Ukrainian authorities for selling us these weapons,” a Hamas fighter says in the video, as he shows off a cache of weapons.
“We will use this weapon against you, enemies,” he went on. “We will use it against Israel.”
