Cowardly Hamas terror chief stalls cease-fire deal with ‘Don't kill me' demand
[NY Post] Yahya Sinwar, the new head of Hamas, tossed yet another wrench into Gaza cease-fire talks with a rumored demand for a "Don’t kill me" clause in any deal with Israel.
A shallow bully demonstrating the weakness of his faith
The mastermind of the Oct. 7 atrocities reportedly wants Jerusalem to guarantee his safety — permanently.

Never mind his years of tough talk that it would be an honor to die fighting Israel, nor his opposition to any cease-fire before his recent rise to head the terror group.

Then again, he won the top job after the assassination of former Hamas chief Ismail Haniyeh in Tehran last month: Seems that has Sinwar second-guessing the importance of his honor.

Is Israel’s relentless elimination of Hamas leaders getting too close?

It’s up to Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu whether to appease Sinwar with this promise; if it can get the remaining 109 hostages back, perhaps it’s worth a pledge (with fingers crossed behind Bibi’s back).

Hamas began this war by violating the cease-fire in effect on Oct. 6; it remains dedicated to Israel’s utter destruction and plainly means to use any new cease-fire to rearm so it can rape, kidnap and murder again.

And it’s absurd to think any promise of "hands off Yahya" would last an instant longer than what must be a temporary cease-fire, as Israel cannot let Hamas survive this war.

Play along with Sinwar’s cowardice all you like, Bibi: The only people who will even pretend to blame you or any other Israeli leader for OK’ing his assassination are those who share his hatred for the Jewish state.

#1 maybe if Nancy, Barack, Chuck, Hakeem visited Sinwar they could persuade him to go into exile
