I get there are western MSM that are more anti-Israeli (I wouldn't go as far to say pro-Hamas) but there are some that are more in the center (Reuters, AP) or sympathetic (FoxNews).

Regardless, if IDF wants to shift the narrative better, which they badly need to, they need more credentialized MSM and/or really many, many more YT influencers. IDF has and continue to suck at the propaganda game.

Just a moment...

Quote:

The IDF currently assesses that the entire cabinet of the Houthi cabinet — including the prime minister and 12 other ministers — were likely killed in yesterday’s strike in Yemen, Channel 12 reports without citing any sources.

The network says the assessment is not definitive and that the IDF is still working to reach a more definitive understanding of the strike’s results.

Channel 12 says the Houthi defense minister and military chief of staff were en route to the location of the cabinet meeting shortly before the strike and were apparently at the site when it was hit.

Seems significant? Probably another strong man replacement will step up

More post-war Gaza redevelopment, reconstruction plans. Much better done than the earlier cheesy YT video. But just as unlikely. But still holding hope that I can afford a condo in the "smart city" by the sea.

BBC reports below. Sounds like the ground offensive is starting

Israeli reservists report for duty ahead of Gaza City offensive

Ground forces are already pushing into the outskirts of Gaza's largest urban area, which the military has said is a stronghold of Hamas.

The city is also coming under heavy Israeli aerial and artillery bombardment, with local hospitals saying that more than 50 Palestinians have been killed there since midnight.

Looks like Bibi is all-in now, regardless of the safety of the remaining hostages.

Quote:

The IDF's Chief of Staff, Lt Gen Eyal Zamir, has urged Netanyahu to accept a current proposal from regional mediators that would see about half of them released during a 60-day truce. However, the prime minister has said Israel will only accept a comprehensive deal that would see all the hostages freed and Hamas disarmed.

There were reportedly angry exchanges between Zamir and ministers at a meeting on Sunday.

If they have not returned the hostages by now, they never had any intention of it.
