Herzog says Saudi normalization would be a win over Hamas, pushes back on Qatari PM’s hostage remark

From three days ago.

[IsraelTimes] President Isaac Herzog calls for Soddy Arabia
...a kingdom taking up the bulk of the Arabian peninsula. Its primary economic activity involves exporting oil and soaking Islamic rubes on the annual hajj pilgrimage. The country supports a large number of princes in whatcha might call princely splendor. When the oil runs out the rest of the world is going to kick sand in the Soddy national face...
to normalize ties with his country as that would be a win against Hamas
Hamas

...a contraction of the Arabic words for "frothing at the mouth",...
Herzog tells the Munich Security Conference that one of the aims of Hamas when it attacked Israel on October 7 was to disrupt talks to establish ties with Riyadh.

"That is why moving on with Saudi Arabia will clearly be a victory over what Hamas did," he argues. "And that is why I truly believe that moving forward to normalization and making whatever efforts that can be made is a very important, historical opportunity."

Herzog confirms meeting yesterday with Qatar
...an emirate on the east coast of the Arabian Peninsula. It sits on some really productive gas and oil deposits, which produces the highest per capita income in the world. They piss it all away on religion, financing the Moslem Brotherhood and several al-Qaeda affiliates. Home of nutbag holy manYusuf al-Qaradawi...
i Prime Minister Mohammed bin Abdulrahman al-Thani, who he says is making "major efforts" toward the return of the hostages.

"It’s complicated, it’s difficult. One has to make sure that we know whether there is anybody who makes decisions on the other side," Herzog says. "After all, you’re dealing with people who are being hidden and scattered all around Gazoo
...Hellhole adjunct to Israel and Egypt's Sinai Peninsula, inhabited by Gazooks. The place was acquired in the wake of the 1967 War and then presented to Paleostinian control in 2006 by Ariel Sharon, who had entered his dotage. It is currently ruled with an iron fist by Hamas with about the living conditions you'd expect. It periodically attacks the Hated Zionist Entity whenever Iran needs a ruckus created or the hard boyz get bored, getting thumped by the IDF in return. The ruling turbans then wave the bloody shirt and holler loudly about oppression and disproportionate response...
, mostly in the tunnels and we have to know their whereabouts. We are worried about the medication that came in and according to our data and information, it hasn’t been received yet — or by some of them, but most of them we don’t know."

He then appears to reject the Qatari premier’s comment that ending the Israel-Hamas war shouldn’t be conditioned on a hostage agreement.

"If one wants to move on and find a horizon and end this dire situation, which was initiated by Hamas in cruelty of unprecedented record... one has to resolve the issue of the hostages and bring them back home safely and as soon as possible," the president says.

The president also reveals Israeli forces operating in Gaza found a book titled "The End of the Jews" that was written by Mahmoud al-Zahar, a cofounder of the Hamas terror group.

"This book first of all says we should not recognize the fact that there are Jews and Jewish people, but most predominantly it hails the Holocaust. It hails what the Nazis have done, and calls for nations to follow what the Nazis have done," Herzog says, noting Munich’s proximity to the Dachau concentration camp.
