Hamas announced Sunday, August 11, that today’s commander “rejects the invitation by the U.S., Qatar and Egypt for a final round of negotiations over the Gaza hostage and ceasefire deal.” Iran is expected to launch an attack against Israel. They’ve been holding back because they know what the retaliation is going to look like. Meanwhile, loose cannon Hezbollah has an itchy trigger finger. The Lebanese goat humpers already “fired a barrage of rockets toward northern Israel.” The Pentagon issued a statement that same evening from Defense Secretary Lloyd Austin. He ordered the guided-missile armed submarine USS Georgia to the Middle East. He also told our carrier strike group, already enroute, to step on the gas.
No deal for Democrats
Take your deal and shove it, Hamas said on Sunday. The White House wasn’t happy to hear it. The handlers of Joe Biden and Kamala Harris were desperately hoping to be able to appease the far-left members of the Democrat party with a temporary cease fire in Gaza. They timed Thursday’s scheduled meeting to be right ahead of the DNC convention.
While America staunchly supports our valuable ally and partner Israel, liberals have been programmed to favor Hamas terrorists. Before things got to crisis level in the region, the USS Theodore Roosevelt carrier strike group was hanging around, along with the USS Wasp amphibious ready group, “which includes a force of thousands of Marines capable of special operations.”
Even though the Biden regime finds it distasteful to show support for Israel, they’re honoring our commitments. We already had forces on the way. The USS Abraham Lincoln carrier strike group is to “accelerate its transit to the Middle East.” They set out on August 2 but “carried out port calls in Guam and the Northern Mariana Islands along the way.” They won’t be stopping for more snacks.

Secretary Austin took the unusual step of announcing where our fancy nuclear submarine is headed. The whole reason for sailing underwater is so nobody knows where you are. This time, the Pentagon wants to make a big deal about it. “The announcement of a submarine’s movement is a clear message of deterrence to Iran and its proxies, who the U.S. and Israel believe are preparing for a potential large-scale attack on Israel.”
It’s all back and forth escalation which started when Hamas invaded Israel last October. The latest thing to upset the Ayatollah was the recent assassination of a visiting Hamas commander in Tehran, the capitol of Iran. Making it even worse, whoever killed Ismail Haniyeh had a whole lot of help from the Iranian counterpart to the Secret Service. There are two versions of the hit, both show it was an inside job. The only ceasefire deal that will happen now is when Hamas totally surrenders. That’s not going to happen Thursday.
The Israelis have already written off the hostages Hamas is allegedly holding. They couldn’t find the ones they were supposed to turn over for the last swap. The rest may already be dead. Israeli hardliners are ready to bomb whatever is left of Gaza flat, whether any hostages are down there or not. Either way, Hamas killed them, even if the Israelis built the bombs that finish them off.

Hezbollah jumps the gun
Hezbollah got tired of waiting for the Ayatollah to give them the green light. The sooner they start killing Jews, the better, they say, firing “a barrage of rockets toward northern Israel.” The IDF was already on high alert. They’re expecting every radical Arab in the region to come after them for the killing of Haniyeh, whether they really did it or not.
Unofficially, they told Blinky Blinken they did. Democrats hoped their deal negotiation meeting would slow things down. They don’t want World War III to start before they nail down Kamala Harris as their presidential candidate.
After they fired the barrage, Hezbollah issued a statement noting the “salvo was fired in support of the Palestinian people in Gaza and in retaliation for Israeli strikes in southern Lebanon.”

This one was just general principles, not part of the big retaliation for Haniyeh. That’s still to come. They weren’t going to be part of the deal talks anyway. The IDF confirms that “about 30 rockets were launched from Lebanon. some fell into open areas.” No injuries were reported.
The Democrats don’t seem to be slowing Iran down any either. “According to two sources,” CNN writes, “Israeli intelligence assessed Iranian forces could be planning an attack.” Kamala’s handlers weren’t happy to learn that means, “within days, even before the August 15 hostage deal talks.”
The situation is “still fluid” and “the internal debate in Iran continues. It is possible Iranian decision-making will still change.“
