The English subtitle "we will operate forcefully everywhere" has a very different meaning from your quote: "We will target each and every corner of the strip."

What is the difference in the meaning?

"Target each and every corner of the strip" implies the strip as a whole is the target. "Operate forcefully everywhere" merely implies that force will be brought everywhere in the strip against whatever the target may be (from context, Hamas).

Says Netanyahu: To the citizens of Gaza, I say. You must leave now. We will target each and every corner of the strip.” Edited to remove false quote

this is still false quote. i saw him speaking live. he said to get out of the locations that are known to population as hamas/etc compounds, warehouses, etc.

. כל המקומות שהחמאס מסתתר בהם ופועל בתוכם - נהפוך אותם לעיי חורבות. אני אומר לתושבי עזה, צאו משם עכשיו.

"operate everywhere" and "target each and every corner of the strip" are different citation, also do you speak Jewish or you relied on youtube autotranslate captions with questionable quality?

I speak Hebrew. The direct translation is "we will operate everywhere and with full force".

So does Egypt. It's not only the Israelis who are afraid of Hamas and Islamic Jihad.

As an Egyptian, we are not afraid of Palestinians moving to Sinai [1]. Neither they want to leave their lands so that they will lose it forever. The last time they were told to leave it for a little then come back was in 1948. Will, they are waiting until now. Hint: I welcome the downvotes. HN is majority US members who are historically (The Majority) pro Israeli point of view of everything. I understand that [1] May…

i do remember egypt been rather unhappy when all of sudden weapons started to flow from gaza back to sinai to isis/muslim brotherhood/etc. and some personal as well

>We will turn Gaza into a deserted island. Looks like this may be a fake quote. Al Jazeera[0] is the only source I can find. Meanwhile, Politico[1] and other sources have a markedly different quote: "All the places where Hamas hides, operates from — we will turn them into cities of ruins."

This is kind of interesting. Netanyahu used an expression that I wasn't sure about, עיי חורבות, which actually sounds a lot like "Destroyed islands". I looked it up and apparently it just means "ruins", but I wonder if the first translation just misheard/misunderstood what he said.

JFC. Boring in the sense that exactly nothing new is going to be posted and anyone who’s seen a couple of these could write entire exchanges that will happen basically verbatim. The discussion is guaranteed to be 100% a repeat of all the other ones. So, boring.

I dunno, a thousand terrorists coordinating land, sea, and air (paraglider and drone) over WhatsApp with videographers posting professionally editing footage to Telegram in real-time is actually pretty interesting.

You're right, and usually threads that do get up-voted are focused on specific technological novelties, whether in the title of the article or the content.

Just look at this story - the reasons it's considered "reasonable" for HN is because the framing is a technological story (internet traffic spike). That then also gives a small space for some people to discuss other aspects of this.
