MOUT is not easy when you are fighting an enemy who is prepared for it. Gaza is incredibly dense and Israel doesn’t have the forces needed for a long term occupation and having a heightened security posture for its nation.

They will go through the path of least resistance and clear as much as they can until they think the threat has been minimized to a level to where they can withdraw. All while Iran does as much as possible to destabilize the region and capitalize on the chaos.

Make no mistake, there is no Hamas without Iran. There is no winning or loosing. There is no formal surrender and there is no mission accomplished. As long as the leadership in Iran is intact, there is only living and dying. Terrorism is more than killing people, it is oppression and creating a scenario to where the daily lives of a population are forever changed.

Trump knew that getting Saudi Arabia, UAE, and Jordan and other Middle Eastern nations standing in unity against Iran would be the only hope. The Saudi’s are not happy with Iran and Iran has attacked the Saudi’s on multiple occasions. SA has as much to loose as Israel

Meh. We've all had that hot headed friend that's always looking for a fight, and when he finds one expects everyone to help him. But no one does.

We also have that hot head friend that we haven't seen in a while and then we hear he got stabbed outside a bar, or beat to death by a motorcycle gang, and we think, well that's not really a surprise. The Arab world will not be surprised or particularly saddened to see Hamas wiped out.

Israel needs to immediately adopt the Swiss Model of every home with an adult capable of bearing arms have at least one combat rifle and at least 500 rounds of ammunition to feed it.  With all of the hostiles on its borders just miles away all of their people need to be able to resist immediately with full force until the IDF can be mobilized to react to the attack.  If every one of those kibbutz had been well armed I think the Israeli death toll would have been much much less and given the IDF time to react.  The one woman who led her kibbutz in repelling the attack and killed 25 terrorists is the prime example.  Another example is the couple who even though they were killed were able to save their twin infants and killed 7 terrorists before succumbing.

one of the channels i dont watch unless trying to get all sides of the story is steven ben-nun. his interviews lately tell of how this was allowed to happen to draw everyone into war. basically there are alot of ultra zionists trying to stir the pot to get their land goals acheived in time for their 3rd temple/jewish messiah.

im against all sides in this conflict yet again. the reclaiming of land jewish messiah/3rd temple concept calls for the anti-christ that will behead true Christians as per my Bible. im one of those that will be beheaded and or family/children when that day comes.

I opposed OIF in 2002 {briefing prior to invasion} based on concerns WMD backlash - public trust for the future wars and I lost some friends and peers there but ultimately we were going to fight jihadists there or elsewhere - we have a permanent army national guard infantry battalion rotation in Africa after losing 3 embassies to al qaeda attacks, a Army National Guard brigade rotation in Iraq/Syria/Jordan after Obama withdrew from Iraq in 2011 then isis developed and we have air defense brigades spread around gulf states, Israel and Saudi Arabia due to Iran sponsored missile attacks. Jihadis blew up Americans in Sri Lanka recently, bombed hotels in Indonesia and launched attacks into Europe. We still have an open border, we’ve had lone wolf attacks in the past. There’s no avoiding a fight that someone else wants to make happen. Hence why 2A remains eternally relevant
