We must be clear about things: A just world required this man to die, and ideally without dignity. I can put it in no blunter terms than that, nor even conceive of them. I am utterly relieved about his death, and more than a bit elated as well — not because I am bloodthirsty, but precisely because I despair over the implacable bloodthirstiness of Hamas, an organization that came to power in the Gaza Strip after it was literally handed to the Palestinians but that, instead of governing for the benefit of its people, harvested its resources and human capital to plot the slaughter, abduction, rape, and eventual genocide of its Jewish neighbors. Sinwar died with a shell through his skull and a roof collapsed upon his bomb-belted body, and I confess my grim satisfaction at the closure of it, if nothing else. He was given the opportunity to be an actual leader, and he invested all of it in hatred and terror. I celebrate, and couldn’t care less if you think differently.

We are developing the social individualist meta-context for the future. From the very serious to the extremely frivolous... lets see what is on the mind of the Samizdata people.

Who Are We?The Samizdata people are a bunch of sinister and heavily armed globalist illuminati who seek to infect the entire world with the values of personal liberty and several property. Amongst our many crimes is a sense of humour and the intermittent use of British spelling. We are also a varied group made up of social individualists, classical liberals, whigs, libertarians, extropians, futurists, ‘Porcupines’, Karl Popper fetishists, recovering neo-conservatives, crazed Ayn Rand worshipers, over-caffeinated Virginia Postrel devotees, witty Frédéric Bastiat wannabes, cypherpunks, minarchists, kritarchists and wild-eyed anarcho-capitalists from Britain, North America, Australia and Europe.

Quite right, me too.
Almost all of what he said, except for this:
No, he was given the opportunity to be exactly what he already was anyway, only on a grander scale, and to invest all of it as stated. Not a bug, a feature.
Amen. My only regret is that he didn’t die more slowly and in more pain like his many victims: men, women and children. To die instantly is far too easy an escape for this monster.
If the drone vid I just watched was real, he died slowly and in pain. So this is a good day.
Breitbart has an article with a video that shows what are said to be some of his final moments. It is drone footage in a building hit apparently by a tank shell and then grenades, it is grim. Still, if he is correct, he is in Paradise now.
That he made it to mid-October 2024 rather than mid-October 2023 indicates just how well protected he was, unless his continued, hunted existence was tolerated.
I can’t imagine Genghis Khan taking over a year to take out a besieged enemy, a testament to the relative caution of this war.
Some headlines from May 2024:
Israeli offensive in Rafah ‘must not go ahead’, Sir Keir Starmer warns
‘A huge mistake’: Kamala Harris warns Israel against invasion of Rafah
Israel declined to follow their advice.
Anyone with any sense would be disinclined to follow the advise of TTK or the Cackling Witch.
Alisa is correct – in his society he did the things that attract the most praise, he mutilated and killed “infidels” – and was greatly admired for this.
The fear is that his killing will lead to yet more demands (from the international establishment) for a “cease fire” which will enable Islamic forces to rebuild their strength.
As for Israel – there still seems to be no clear plan.
Gaza was allowed to govern itself – it was the “Palestinian State” that the international establishment demanded, there was no “occupation” not from 2005 on.
This policy of a “Palestinian State” was a blood soaked disaster (this was clear long before October 7th 2023 – there were endless missile attacks before then). In Gaza the policy of a “Palestinian State” was a disaster – just as it would be in the “West Bank”, much of which is closer to the sea than to the Jordan river – it almost cuts Israel in two. And what Muslim children are taught in school (and at home) is much the same in the “West Bank” as it is in the Gaza salient – namely that the infidels must be destroyed.
So what to do now?
I feel as much sorrow for the death of this POS as I would have done for the death of Hitler. So far the Irish President has not signed a book of condolence, but it could happen in due course.

“Why we hate you.”
“Thus, even if you were to stop fighting us, your best-case scenario in a state of war would be that we would suspend our attacks against you – if we deemed it necessary – in order to focus on the closer and more immediate threats, before eventually resuming our campaigns against you.”

It is sad that the statement in the OP is even needed, but i guess that it is addressed to a small but influential minority; and you know whom i am talking about.
