Israel is about to march into a trap set by Hamas and Iran which is meant to cause the maximum death and destruction possible on both sides. Hamas is NOT an existential threat to Israel's existence, but Iran is and they have strategic reasons for executing this war as they are!
I fully support the complete elimination of every Hamas supporter in Israel and on this planet. But Israel should do it on its timetable and in ways that minimize Israeli losses. In a war of attrition Israel can decimate Hamas in Gaza from the air and with snipers. Drawing Israeli troops into booby-trapped streets and buildings it's precisely what Iran and Hamas aimed for from the very beginning of their attack.
I believe the mission of Hamas was to capture as many hostages possible in order to draw Israel into Gaza and then Iran will use Israel's Gaza exercise as their justification to launch into northern Israel and inside Israel. Might Iran launches its ballistic missiles on the "great Satan" -- American ships in the Mediterranean and throughout Israel?
Israel must defend itself AT the Gaza BORDER and continue to make surgical airstrikes. This is terribly difficult for hostage families who want their loved ones rescued and where possible we should make attempts.
Where we need to be proactive is with Hezbollah to the north, Syria and Iran. That is the inevitable battle. Marching into Gaza is exactly what Iran wants us to do.
WATCH DAMASCUS!
