In a slip of the tongue, Mark Regev, an international spokesperson for Prime Minister Binyamin Netanyahu’s Office, admitted Israel’s role in the targeted elimination of Hamas deputy leader Saleh al-Arouri on a live broadcast on Tuesday evening.
All government officials were instructed to avoid speaking publicly about the elimination, Channel 12 News reported, as per Israel’s long-standing policy of maintaining silence regarding its attacks of terror leaders on foreign soil.
In an interview with MSNBC following the airstrike, the hostess questioned whether “a strike in downtown Beirut might lead to a Hezbollah response and open that northern front.” [As if Hezbollah hasn’t already opened a northern front by its constant attacks on Israel since October 7th.]
“I think it’s obvious,” Revev responded. “Obviously, there are many Hezbollah targets in Lebanon. But whoever did this strike was very surgical and went for a Hamas target…. because Israel is at war…eh, eh, eh, eh…. whoever did this…has a gripe with Hamas..eh, eh, eh, eh…once again, whoever did this – it’s not an attack on the Lebanese state, it’s not an attack on the Hezbollah terror organization….whoever did this, it’s an attack on Hamas, that’s very clear.”
Lest readers think that Regev always stumbles over his words, watch the video below [filmed in November], in which he very articulately and forcefully pushes back at a British broadcaster who equivocated the release of young Israeli child hostages with the release of teenaged Palestinian prisoners convicted of attempted murder.

You could be 100% right, but to the world view, you are guilty of heinous war crimes.
This headline is nonsense. He did not admit Israel’s role. He said Israel is at war. He did not say Israel did this.
@Yaapchik,
the second part of your comment can be true in many cases, and you are unfortunately right.
Your first though, is the typical misconception tactic, of juxtaposing two different topics together to fit the zionist propaganda.
Get this straight:
There is a clear difference between Esav and Yishmael:
Esav as we know, are said by the Torah, to hate for the sake of hate, no reason. And this is to ward us off from thinking that we can be like them (unlike what the zionists believe).
Yishmael on the other hand, if you look in the Ramban in the relevant parsha/s, you’ll see that the Ramban describes Yishmael as a ‘bow-‘n-arrow’, meaning that when pulled it will shoot, but if not pulled and kept down and calm, it simply won’t shoot.
Anyone who is not entirely brainwashed why zionist stupidity will know, that Jews fared much better in the Arabian lands, UP UNTIL 1948.
Nobody says that they are not goyim or tzadikim, that’s what the zionist want you to believe in order to turn you away from the uncomfortable truth.
What people are saying, is that this hatred was always much easier than esav to handle, as they are noach’lirtzos, v’noach-lichos.
Simple, you don’t go poking a sleeping lion, and then go running shouting for help that he wants to eat you alive.

What makes you think you know who individually (or collectively) is Esav and who individually (or collectively) is Yishmael? Quite simply put, from the Chumash itself, both Esav and Yishmael are genetically linked to Avraham. All were in he middle east at the same ancient period of time. You have no clue as to which middle-east Arab is Esav and which middle east Arab is Yishmael.

Further to my previous post, the Chumash tells us that they intermarried. So basically that would make them schizophrenic, which is more dangerous than either of them separately.

That is an outright LIE. The Jewish experience under Islam, and in particular under Arabs, was no better than it was under Christianity.
The Israeli ambassador to the UN openly congratulated Israeli forces for carrying it out immediately when it happened
Sorry -no admission here tha it was Israel! It could still be the Americans who did it. The U.S. had offered 5 million dollars for information leading to his capture or demise….
