This is the same Israel that hunted down the terrorists down after the Munich Olympics, and hunted down Nazis for decades. They know how to play the long game. They’re experts.
I previously said, and to which you replied above:

Quote:
John has said nothing to address how Israel should have reacted to the barbaric Hamas attack other than basically imply "not this way".

None of you critics of Israel's retaliation have come up with an answer as to how Israel should have reacted. The barbarity of Hamas is not warranted by Israel's historic treatment of Palestinians.

All you pontificators as to 'long term security for Israel' take little notice of the realities within Israel and its actions in the West Bank. The Ultras are at critical mass and, like the Ayatollahs, are narrow minded and intransigent. Unless the pontificators can suggest how the Ultras can change course, there is no 2 state solution possible and Israel's long term security will significantly depend on military strength. And, if USA flexes its muscles to pressure Israel, things will get 'interesting'.

First, I thank you for taking the trouble to dig out your best shot at putting forward John's argument.

My problem with that is:

1. The first sentence is too short to have contextual meaning.

2. The second sentence does nothing to address the specifics of 7-Oct.
