The Israeli attack on Gaza is in pursuit of protecting the security of Israel and is in self defence. The families in Gaza need to suck on that.
Your callous disregard for human life is despicable, OB.

I'm not entertaining the rest of your post or any other on this subject.

There is an emerging thought online that the current delay - attributed to the weather (which is atrocious) officially I think - is America blinking given the public (everywhere) and diplomatic (outside of Europe) reaction around the world this weekend.

It won't change Israel's strategy but allows more time for evacuation and humanitarian efforts. There's also suggestions of Egypt erecting a fence 5km from the border presumably to contain refugees which would allow humanitarian efforts to be made safely on Egyptian soil.

This is going to play out atrociously for American foreign policy interests worldwide but they could at least try to mitigate slightly.
