D1, anything short of carpet bombing the entire Gaza strip and then buldozing the rubble and the bodies into the Med is a half measure and will not end this cycle.
If the muslim brotherhood loves their palestinian fellow jihadis so much, let Egypt take any Hamas loving resident of Gza that chooses to leave after 24 hour notice from Israel.
Israel must go into Gaza and clean out as much of their missile stockpiles as possible. And kill as many Hamas terrorist leaders as possible. They need to decrease the attack capability of Hamas (in league with Iran) in order to neutralize any attacks from Gaza for when they go after Iran and bomb their nuclear facilities.
Israel doesn’t want war on many fronts, so in neutralizing Gaza, that eliminates one source of counter attack if they go after Iran’s nuclear facilities. Hamas is in league with Iran, and would counter attack on their behalf if Israel bombs Iran’s nuclear sites, so getting the Pali’s (Hamas) out of the way now gives Israel one leg up later, when it goes after Iran.
Israel will still be vulnerable to attack from Lebanon, but one front to have to fight on is better than two. Eliminate one of them now, namely Gaza. Gives Israel much better odds in the long run. Israel must eliminate as much danger from the Hamas front as possible, right now.
At various times I have voiced something similar. It’s something I’m not entirely comfortable with, although times come and go where I see it as likely the only answer.
My reasoning generally focuses on an explanation, a lamenting of no resolution to the problem, and a plan instituted to put an end to the constant turmoil.
Make no mistake about it though, moving the Arabs off the West Bank and Gaza makes Israel a viable bulls-eye.
Right now, it would be literally impossible to use nukes on Israel, without killing the Arabs on the West Bank and Gaza too.
