draw Israel into a Battle of Algiers/Falluja situation.Even if only ONE gaza Arab would remain alive,it would have been trumpeted as a Hamas Victory' Lot of Armchair General Posters and others say he must resign bla bla..He went as far as he could . Remember it is impossible to win this type of war .... It is only possible to mow the lawn on the weekend.. We dont have the luxury of letting Israeli Youth bleed to death in a stupid land war in Gaza or anywhere else.Just mow the lawn from time to time if they dont want peace.

photo, you will see the fear in the anatomical left side of his face. Elohim says in several places in the Holy Scriptures, "Fear not." Fear is the opposite of faith. Israel wins because Elohim is with Israel.

He deserves appreciation for his infinite dedication to Israel's survival and thoughtful decisions.. May G-D bless him and Am Israel.

What no one talks about is that with obama's underhanded treatment of Israel and Bibi Israel and Bibi won a major victory and solidly damaged Gaza to an as of yet underdetermined cost analyst. Hamas errant rocket destroyed Gaza's water treatment plant that served two purposes, fresh water, gone, and the treatment of affluents also gone and with that leaving an ecological nightmare of human waste lingering in Gaza before it chugs its way to the sea. Then, there are the deaths, the destruction of infrastructure, homes, the homeless and perhaps diseases from the filth. How can one measure the future of a vanquished non people who've never learned war with Israel isn't profitable? This time, Gaza's war orders was led by Iran's insane Mullah to distract again, from Iran's butchery along with the Saudi's in their war of Islam vs. Islam. VIVA ISRAEL!

Shalom. G-d chooses Jews win and Arab loses.

You're not mowing a lawn. You're putting a finger in the dyke.

What is he babbling about? Somebody wanted to rob me of my jewelry, but I successfully let him take "only" my flat screen TV...!

Best comment I have read on this site in ages.

What has Bibi acvhieved? Over 70 dead brave soldiers who gave their lives for nothing. If you are to believe that Hamas could not be defeated than you should be ready to surrender to them. They will surely come after you again shortly.

With a wet noodle. Peace at any price!

Nobody who becomes PM is ever popular. Now people are condemning netanyahu for not going far enough but if he had done more it would have involved a very long very expensive ground operation with hundreds of soldiers being killed even then no guaranteed results. The people would then be saying why are our sons dying for Netanyahus war call fir a truce now, never mind the terms just end it now and Hamas would have won hands down. However it played out Netanyahu was always hoping to cone out of it image in the dirt because he is the PM so he gets all blame even when it is a dabinet decision

It does not have to be a long, drawn-out land war. Israel can take pretty good care of things from the air. That said, perhaps Prime Minister Netanyahu chose the wiser course. Hamas does not control all of the terrorist elements in Gaza and, sooner or later, someone is going to get really stupid and fire a missile into Israel. Israel's policy is to hold Hamas responsible for all such transgressions. Then, the ball will be in Israel's court. Odds are, we'll finish the pounding -- and the international community can scarcely hold Israel responsible. They cannot deny the purpose of the tunnels or the war crimes -- firing missiles at civilian populations is a war crime. Retaliating is just retaliation. For all the international buzz, the only people in danger of being indicted as war criminals are members of Hamas. No one's forgotten the caching of weapons in United Nations schools, in mosques, in hospitals and in civilian homes; no one has forgotten the United Nations' role as collaborators in these war crimes. ISIS is drawing the attention of the international community; no one has any time for criminal thugs in Gaza. Israel, given provocation, will have a free hand.

Hama Is a cancer that must completly be cut out so that it can never come back again so that Israel can live in peace.
