Israel's army has officially admitted it has lost the war.

That's what the latest admission from the official Israeli military

Yes, they breached incarcerated and tortured so many. Yes, they violently crushed the medical system.

Yes, we could go on. But they've done all of that, but they haven't

Hamas is the Muslim Brotherhood. It's been around for many, many years.
