It all reminds me too much of Vietnam with bombing attacks against the enemy followed by bombing pauses, cease fire talks followed by cease fires, incursions into Laos and Cambodia, followed by withdraws back into South Vietnam etc. etc.

Bibi Netanyahu is channeling Johnson-Nixon tactics in Vietnam and those tactics are not a pathway to victory, they are a pathway to defeat.

the most direct route is a straight line.....

I’d suggest Nuking the KABA at MECCA....but that often irritates the sensitive

In Netanyahu’s defense, he’s actually fighting a war on three fronts: Gaza, Hezbollah in the North, and Iran. The latter two fronts are relatively cold, but could flare up at any moment. Any action he takes has to take this reality into account.

Could he, in fact, be dithering? Yes, of course, but in this situation there’s a lot going on that we don’t see.
