So we are left with nothing but warmongering to some strategic end.
2. The answer is blowing in the wind
Sarah ,   Ashkelon   (10.23.18)
When Netanyahu and Lieberman talk about very hard blows, anyone, like the author of this article, tries to guess what those blows will be and when they will arrive.

Well, that nobody expects anything because nothing will happen here. The only atomic bombs of this conflict aren't in the hands of Israel, but Hamas.

Hamas is waging a winning strategy and the logic answer of Israel is to maintain the status quo at any price. There are more answers but it would take a lot of courage to carry them out, and courage is an old-fashioned word.

The hard blows of Netanyahu's are of wind, simple puffs, farts at best.
3. Don't forget Eisencot and his "moral scruples" preventing

hitting arsonists.

4. A thanksgiving prayer for Yonatan Yavin
Alexander Scheiner ,   ZY, Israel   (10.23.18)
....., that Yonatan "arm chair strategist" Yavin is not a decision maker in Israel and that he writes his pseudo-political articles for ignorant readers. As ignorant as himself.
5. Entering Gaza will mean many deaths for Israelis and
steve ,   beer sheva   (10.25.18)
hundreds for Gazans including women and children that they will use as shields. With all these noncombatants there we will never win.

On the other hand if non -combatants were evacuated like they do in the rest of the world we would finish Hamas forever. This of course why Hamas will never agree.
Its about time this explanation that shows Hamas to be the cowards that they are is broadcast to the whole world. Unfortunately funding hasbara has never been given much importance by Israeli governments - more important is the funding of yeshivot and settler's councils .
6. Either retake Gaza forever or face endless war, terror...
Chaim ,   Israel   (10.26.18)
There is no way forward unless Israel reverses our mad Gaza retreat and retakes Gaza forever. The only alternative is endless war, terror, rockets, incendiary kites and evil of every form. That is the pure and obvious truth. This truth applies equally to our South Lebanon Security Zone and every part of Judea and Samaria we insanely ceded to our mortal "Palestinian" foes.
