Is Sinwar desperate or delusional?

I guess today we saw the first sign of life from Yahya Sinwar, leader of Hamas in the Gaza Strip.

From deep in the hole in which the scaredy cat is hiding from the IDF, the big brave Yahya Sinwar sent a message the Hamas leadership abroad. Sinwar claims in his message to be leading Hamas to crushing the IDF as they have already killed over 1500 IDF soldiers with another 3500+ seriously wounded.

Sinwar also reported to Hamas leadership that they had destroyed over 750 Israeli military vehicles.

We are still looking for Sinwr, so the one thing he is definitely good at, other than at lying, is hiding like a coward while he keeps his people in the line of fire. He is not the type of leader that leads from the front. Sinwar leads from the back, and from 50 meters under the ground.

Obviously we know this is not true. Today we have the Internet and instant broadcast of images and activity from pretty much anywhere in the world, including from Gaza. We can see how Gaza has been destroyed. We know how many IDF soldiers have been killed. We can see how northern Gaza is now a pile of rubble. At this point they can hardly even shoot more than the occasional salvo of rockets at Israel. 

The days of the 1960s and 1970s where they could start a war with Israel and broadcast victory announcement about how they are decimating the Israelis and be believed are well behind us. That world does not exist any longer. Sinwar can say what he wants but his people know that Hamas is not destroying the Israelis. They had one day of success on October 7, but once Israel mobilized, it has been all downhill for Sinwar and Gaza since.

I wonder if Sinwar thinks he can fool the entire world with such messages, or if he thinks he can maybe at least fool the rest of Hamas leadership. Or maybe he is just fooling himself. Whatever it is, I doubt he is actually fooling anyone. He even sounds somewhat desperate. Or delusional.

  1. Well at least the good thing coming out of this is that it appears he's still in Gaza. I was afraid with him being quiet for so long that he'd been hustled out of there.
    So good, he's still there and at least outwardly feeling cocky, so hopefully B'EH the IDF will catch and kill him.
    It would be an interesting but unlikely turn of events, if the Gazans themselves were to get sick of him "playing" them, and turn him over to the IDF as a gesture to end the war. But nah, that would be "pie in the sky".

  2. As long as Sinwar is alive and free, he's winning the war so why shouldn't he be jubilant?
    Plus, when you're as big a liar as he is, you just do it out of habit. Remember Saddam Hussein's information minister, Comical Ali, who was claiming American soldiers were committing suicide at the gates of Baghdad even as American tanks rolled past in the background?

  3. Oh, I've seen anti-Israel types on the internet saying it already. (Or maybe Sinwar is echoing them, who knows.) These people will believe anything.
