Israeli leaders are explicit about reusing the methods of 1948 in Gaza. But what didn’t quell the Palestinians then will not do so now.

+972 Magazine is run by a joint effort between Palestinian and Israeli journalists. They have been covering this conflict for years, so if you want to know more, it is highly advisable to check them out.

    They might not want the Palestinians to be violently bombed and instead might opt for control or slow silent deaths through starvation or occupation. What they definitely do not want is for 5 million Palestinians to join them and become citizens with equal rights.

    At this point some of the cooler heads in intelligence or ex spooks who retired to commentariat understand their actions are self-destructive, too noisy. One guy said they should never have drawn attention to the hostages, just killed them.

      That is harrowing, but I’m not surprised.

      Also, if you could find the source on that, I would really appreciate it.

      I’d love to find out specifically who that was. Do you remember where you heard it, or some keywords you think might help me search for it?
