"It’s difficult to escape the conclusion that the Israeli military has been wanting to do something like this for a long time. For almost 10 years now, Israeli society has been balanced between two possible futures: one based on a recognition that, no matter how advanced their military, they do not have the power to impose their preferred solution on everyone in the region and must negotiate with them in good faith, and the other based on an ultimately futile continuation of the belief that they can dictate events in the region." They cannot win militarily, there is no punishment for wanton destruction by the IDF, and the cycle repeats itself while the United States government gives them the thumbs up. len
