the point is tot take out the tunnels and not avoid it but plan to do it in a proper way. to look for reasons why hamas did not maintain quiet is more the politician role which both yaalon and gantz adopted. as galant said, they hesitated until the last momemnt.

omce agaim we see ;lapid and livni voting not to arrest hamas terror, not to hit tunnels, not to do nothing. yet now lapid, the hippocrite attacks bibi who to his credit was on fence maybe yes, maybe no.

lapid on the ohter hand, a security ignoramus, says you cannot question the militaruy. he is just like olmert, a blank on security. it was lapid and lvini who enabled yaalon and gantz to do little and that is why it took 50 days and armtwisting. yaalon and gantz will not get my votes. they actd like politicains, not fighting generals/

It's obvious that Bennett makes a lot of trouble without thinking of the consequences for the rest of the country.

Nobody likes Hamas, nobody likes Abbas and nobody likes what is happening on all our borders. But Rambo seems to think that all the combined efforts of every prime minister since the state's inception stand for nothing, and that the only thing for it is to gather our forces and bomb, bomb, bomb.

Would that it were so easy. Would that there were no consequences. Would that it would not involve possibly many thousands of deaths to recklessly attack all our surrounding enemies and thus turn the remnants of the country's reputation into tatters.

Nobody, and no country, is invincible. There are tens of millions of surrounding Muslims who will come to the aid of the Umma. Do we need a showdown that will break the fragile ties with Jordan and Egypt?

He proves over and over again that he has not got the good of the whole country at heart. All that matters for him is power and a biblical vision. Does he reckon that old Joshua's going to appear with his trumpets an blow down the walls of Jericho? Foolish, stupid man.

hamas cannot be contained.
hamas must be destroyed.

even more importantly, hezbollah must be destroyed.
otherwise, israel will reach a point where she will lose
wars.
yaalon has turned out to be a disappointment.
