Press TV – Feb 3, 2025
UK media reports say despite the relentless 16-month genocidal war on Gaza, some Israeli analysts acknowledge that Israel has failed to achieve the so-called goals of the war, saying the Palestinian resistance movement Hamas “is still ruling.”
In an article published by the Financial Times, Michael Milshtein, a former Israeli intelligence officer, was cited as saying that the war “didn’t force Hamas’s collapse or the hostages’ release.”
There were “tactical achievements, but no strategic direction. Hamas is still ruling, and still the dominant actor in Gaza. Period.”
The remarks came as Israeli prime minister Benjamin Netanyahu is set to meet US President Donald Trump on Tuesday at the White House. The meeting is expected to discuss whether the temporary ceasefire agreed last month will become a permanent one.
The deal between Israel and Hamas was reached last month after over 15 months of the regime’s genocidal war on the strip, which claimed the lives of nearly 47,500 Palestinians, mostly women and children.
The regime was forced to accept the ceasefire after having failed to realize any of its wartime objectives, including freeing the captives, “eliminating” the Gazan resistance, and causing forced displacement of Gaza’s entire population to neighboring Egypt.
The deal consists of three stages, with the first stage, which is currently underway, scheduled to last 42 days.
Netanyahu repeatedly said the war was aimed at destroying Hamas in Gaza, and returning all the Israeli captives held by the resistance fighters during the al-Aqsa Flood Operation in October 2023.
“But it is clearer than ever that those aims are almost certainly incompatible. No sooner had the fighting ended, kick-starting the process that will eventually return 33 hostages, than Hamas gunmen emerged to reassert control over the coastal territory, parading their weapons and organizing mass rallies,” the Financial Times said.
According to the article, Netanyahu’s often-promised “total victory” was a “chimera.”
Next week, international mediators, including the US, Qatar and Egypt, will begin talks over the details of the next phase of the deal.


And of course we believe the ((( Financial Times ))) , right?
You would like to believe this stuff but it really underlines Jewish strategy in this conflict……pretending to lose but in reality biding their time.
Trump the crypto jew is currently setting the stage for a global war using much the same strategy used in the thirties.
Trumps tricks with the economy can only lead to war and the crypto jew leading Canada can only speed the process up….wasn’t he supposed to be resigning.(he is probably th most hated PM of Canada ever.)
Only problem is, Hamas is a fictitious muslim terror org existing in name only where Jews dress up as its ‘members’ for photo ops & Truman Show ‘hostage’ exchanges. This fantasy org. will exist as long as Israel wants it to–similar to how ‘The Brotherhood’ from 1984 was a creation of INGSOC. Good luck destroying an illusion.
IGNORANCE IS STRENGTH
Skipped the article as soon as I saw “Financial Times”…. 😒
I think that is about to change since Trump shuttered USAID. Now the source of the money that Netanyahu uses to support Hamas; and keep them relevant on the battlefield; has been cut off.
Emmanuel Goldstein: So you admit that Jews are liars? To what extent has Gaza actually been bombed then? To what extent has the Palestinian population been deprived of its Palestine? To what extent has Beirut been bombed recently? What percentage of what we hear is fantasy vs. real? Have they been lying about Jew activities in Palestine for 80+ years?
Hamas is owned opposition with no legitimate military of leadership, just exists as a reason for the Turkic Mongrels (they are Turks, Scythians and Siberians who stole all of their perverse books that are worthless as almost all allegories are inconsistent and very poorly translated as all of their other books and make the creator look like a nut job.
The greatest lies of all time come from these monsters that have no soul as evidenced by their history and love for items that make them heathen.
Those that believe their monstrous lies and deceit come from Israeli Secret Intelligence Service as the CIA even made a video that there is no address for the Mossad but their is for ISIS which is, like the Pentagram, a very large Hexagon structure.
People that follow these liars that can’t tell the truth and will subvert every single decent government (all of them so far) and their people is far worse than the USA corporation as from the beginning the Constitution and bill of rights were dead on arrival as the US banks from the beginning are private entities (1st bank of the US script at $400 per script to raise 10 million was 65% European banks, 25 Domestic banks and 10% reserve.
US bankrupt entity in 1871 when it could not pay off the debts of the Civil War which the North started just as Al Hamilton forced the south to pay off debts that the north could not pay. We ended up with Washington DC from the organic act which was to be a 10 mile square but the Virginia company refused to participate in. 1933 the US went into receivership and right in front of your eyes is the Wizard of Oz with Oz being Hebrew meaning the great and powerful. Gold went to the Jewish Banking cartel, the TIN man has no heart as it means Tax ID number for Corporations, the straw man is part of the admiralty law we live under (no law of the land exists in the corp of the US) and all babies are birthed, not born and the BAR cannot be broken by those that are no lawyers that have passed the BAR exam and approach the Bench without having qualified to cross the Bar to approach the bench. The US is now the largest drug running operation in the world by manyfold as well over a trillion dollars per year is the only money to support the people hence the raining of the Opium in the flower garden. The red shoes represent blood. Kansas no longer exists as it is now KS for those that have butchered up the US into 12 segments (federal reserve territories) with each having a Jewish governor.
The US was DOA.
