War with hamas stretches into its 8th day im paul gigot and it is 10 p. M. In israel where Officials Say a Ground Invasion of gaza is eminent with Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu telling troop just hours ago that the next stage is coming. We begin our coverage in Southern Israel where foxs Mike Tobin Is Standing by. Mike. Reporter paul we can see everything from the fuel truck to the troop carriers moving around markover tanks getting put into position every indication is theyre preparing to go, in fact, thats just a supply truck thats pulling up behind me right now. Now one of the things that is significant. If you remember the Attacks Reporting came out suggesting that israel had a heads up to it. Israel National Security advisor says that mistake is his for not seeing attack coming. But he denies the reports that egyptian intelligence tipped off israeli an they ignored it. The answer is no. And in the system egyptians did not approach and will warn us in any way indirectly or directly no clue, no wink to no one there in contact with, not to the Prime Minister who did not meet egyptian Intelligence Minister at all or other people from assad. Israeli portions are massing here along the border with gaza. Everything from armor to artillery and troop carriers troops are at the ready weve seem them by the bus load Israeli Defense force says Israeli Forces are increasing their operational readiness all over the country that includes in the north, theres a particular emphasis on ground operations. Paul. Paul thanks mike lets bring in fox news senior strategic analyst from retired Four Star General jack keane. General, welcome, you know, how urban combat is fought. How do you expect the israelis to conduct this campaignsome . You know, well certainly theyre very familiar with what theyre about to do havent done it before in the past their objective were always limited. They were trying to setback hamas by x number years and spend a couple of weeks in there as International Community began to reign down on them in terms of civilian casualties. This time, theyve assigned destroy mission to them which means theyve got to eliminate the infrastructure and eliminate hamas organic existence, and that means it is going to be a long operation. Has to be very systemic. I think they will it will begin with preassault fires youve seen some of this. They have some soft forces that have already been in there going against targets that are actionable and they have pretty good intelligence that something is there. Military hardware, or people and theyve gone in there to hit it. And thats all part of the preassault phase. Then well see Preparation Fires fought prior to their moving in and likely move in on multiple axes we can assume hamas as they took to prepare for the exceeded their expectations to be frank i think they expected more Israeli Military resistance than what they encountered but nonetheless they certainly knew retaliation could be coming maybe not indicate it to be as extensive as it is about to be but likely they are prepared for it as they have been in the past so israelis will take casualties theres no doubt about that but it would be systemic and slower than normal, and it has to be some patience associated with. I think the real challenge for israelis is not so much the fighting which will be tough for the people that are involved and dont want to minimize urban fighting and how it soaks up Infantry Troops and armor forces that are supporting and how challenging it is for just a physicality of that kind of close combat. And you have to have good training and good leadership and good discipline to fight through Something Like that. But that i think the challenge will be among the leaders and the hamas fighters who choose not to fight who choose to blend into the population, and how are they going to be able to separate the population from the people. Something that is at the heart of counterinsurgency efforts and theyve assigned themselves mission to destroy this organization. And that is going to be very important to them. What they dont need is leave weeks or months later we havent destroyed entire physical infrastructure in terms of military hardware, et cetera, and then have Hamas Reemerge months later. That would be Mission Failure as far as theyre concerned given the mission theyve assigned themselves. Paul general, there are an unknown number of american who are held hostage as well as israels there should American Special forces be on the Ground Hing Israelis to rescue those americans . As long as i think we one we have a right to go any place to help get american hostages out. I mean thats just for ourselves, and i cannot believe it, the americans want to be a part of this operation on the ground going after our own people and they have intelligence that gives them that kind of access to where theyre located i cannot imagine them not welcoming the americans and likely we would be pushing to participate in that operation i think just as important is declarations at least privately if not publicly to the iranians who i still believe are orchestrating this that any harm comes to american hostages, that is going to bring us into this conflict. And i think that message should be loud and clear at least privately to the iranian backers of what is taking place here. Paul what kind of age should we be providing the israelis militarily . Theres some thats flowing we know, you know, that there are iron dome interceptors for their Missile Defenses but what else should we be providing they will . Them . They need bombs for their airplanes and offensive missiles for them as well. I think weve had prestockage of ammunition and some weapons in israel for a number of years. We really dont do that for any other krpght other country othen israel so theyve been drawing on all of that. One of the things i think they may want, we have penetrating bombs that could take those Tunnel Complexes out if they have very Accurate Information on where they are and could they be accessed likely underneath Building Structures as of as they are underneath streets. I know that israelis dont have deep pen pen traitors but they dongt need any of the vehicles or Artillery Pieces theyve got all of that. They have a very good conventional military and then they have the Military Stockage in materials of ammunition to support it. Paul general, theres sol suggestion what the israelis need is Bunker Buster Bombs socalled Bunker Buster Bombs that would be a signal to iran incase iran does intervene in the north with through hezbollah that the israelis have capacity to strike iranian sites. Thats what i mean by Deep Penetration bombs sorry if i wasnt clear it is one in the same. Yes, iranians have two to 300 feet underneath the ground part of their Nuclear Enterprise is there. And israelis dont have that kind of capability i would assume, though, paul, if israelis are going to conduct a strike against that Nuclear Enterprise that the United States would provide them that capability. Whether they need that capability here remains to be seen. Israelis know very well what these Tunnel Complexes are like. But we do have that capability, and if it is going assist israelis, im sure theyre asking for it and we would give it to them. Were not going to hold anything back from what they need to have as long as we have that capability on hand.

Theyre pure theyre pure evil. Thats the beginning. The United States make no mistake about it stands with israel. Paul that was President Biden reiterating unwavering support for israel and fight against hamas. Secretary of state Anthony Blink and lloyd austin traveled to telaviv in a show of support for Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu in the newly formed National Unity government. Lets bring in our panel, Wall Street Journal columnist Dan Henninger and mary graddy and Kyle Peterson so dan how well do you think the president and his team have responded to this attack . I would say so far about 7 days later theyve done very well president could not have been more unequivocal of his support and lloyd austin especially gave a remarkable short speech while he was in telaviv he said no neutrality here this is not the time for false equivalence it was exactly the right thing to say. And what remains to be seen is whether theyll sustain support Going Forward and going get into a extremely difficult situation it is going to be Urban Warfare Gaza is a city. Israelis are a determined to go into that city find hamas tunnels, where theyre hiding and root them out inevitably there are going to be casualties those casualties will be put up on tv screens all over the world and the question is whether u. S. Government whether it is Secretary Blinken or joe biden start warning israelis about being careful and so forth. Israelis at this point dont need to be warned about that. Theyre not going toed in gaza what hamas did in israel last weekend. Theyre go doing try to be as careful as they can but it is inevitably going produce casualties and terrible images, and well have to see whether the administration stays the course under those circumstances. Paul mary, to that point Antony Blinken who i actually respect has done a good job he did standing next in public next to the Prime Minister say warned israel you better try to reduce civilian casualties. Now, im not sure they needed that lecture because they want to do that because they understand exactly the diplomatic point that dan makes theyre criticized for it. So you know, what he should have said i think is that hamas is the one that wants to kill civilians. So you know, to dans point about stain power of the u. S. Support what are you looking for . Well, i mean, that is exactly right when you provoke a war like this, and you know that the response is going to be an attack on your own land youre basically saying that youre willing to put all of these civilians at risk and the whole strategy of hamas is using civilians as human shields, i mean, theres no way around that. One of the things that ives been thinking a lot about is what hamas could possibly have thought was going happen right, i mean they were going to do this and nothing was going to happen they knew what was going happen and they want images because theyre trying to stop the progress of the Abraham Accords trying to stop the saudi deal that was we were very close saudi in israel that was moving yeah. Theres been a kind of progress in the middle east between israel and the iowa has been states its been very encouraging they want to completely stop that and, of course, the main actor there is iran. Paul kyle there was an interesting moment i thought from Defense Secretary austin where he said pointedly that the u. S. Can do both provide aid to israel and provide aid to ukraine. And that was a very clear signal to the russians and the iranians that you should not take advantage that we can do both at the same time. Important message, i thought. Yeah an Important Message to the world and Important Message to congress. Some of this has to do with the differing natures of warfare and the differing supplies that these armies already have. So for example, ukraines air force has been pretty hemmed in by the russian antiair defenses so theyre looking more for Artillery Shells things like that. I agree that President Bidens rhetoric and the rest of his administration has been very strong on this not equivocating i think he deserves credit for that there was one report i saw in the last few day that the draft of that first speech he gave that arrived to him was full of inner agency mush. Sounds like the State Department precisely that he was the one who said no were going draw a line here. But the classic phrase is speak softly and carry a big stick and im still waiting for the big stick. I think thats a good start by the Defense Secretary saying we can do both of these things but i would like to hear President Biden say that is why i am sending this bill to congress and we are going to undertake a crash course in rearmorment getting our Weapon Supplies getting them bolsters them getting Production Lines moving again as we need to cold front dual crises. Paul dan what about warning to iran that the in general theyve said president mentioned iran by name said dont take advantage of this has the warning against intervention been Strong Enough . So far i think its been Strong Enough. There joe biden has a bit of a problem because in throughout his career and as president hes been trying to get the Iran Nuclear Deal done. And he simply will not set that aside and that is a question. I would say that deal is dead at this moment. The question were put directly to the president would he respond in the affirmative . And its a big deal because i think the whole world is watching this is a big moment for an existential crisis for israel but a big moment for American Leadership in the middle east russians are there, chinese are there theyre standing back and theyre watching to see how the United States handling this Going Forward. Still ahead as Biden Administration pledges bipartisan support for israel will the speaker fight on capitol hill keep critical aid from flowing . Despite treatment it disrupts my skin with itch.
