pcr speaks herein on the ongoing gaza debacle; 

Is a Palestinian Genocide in the making or an Israeli Defeat?

Paul Craig Roberts

Israel is talking tough–“Israel vows to cut off ‘the head of the snake’ and launch a military attack against Iran if Hezbollah joins the war with Hamas” ( https://www.dailymail.co.uk/news/article-12657495/Israel-attack-against-Iran-Hezbollah-joins-war-Hamas.html  ).  But it is only the economics minister talking, not a military one or Netanyahu.  

The Israeli military is good at murdering children, women and old men and at mass slaughter of civilians and destruction of social infrastructure such as hospitals from a safe distance with bombs and missiles.  But the fighting ability of Israel’s army and its ability to take casualties is in question.  In its encounter with Hezbollah some years ago, the Israeli army was driven from the field.

The Israeli ground invasion of Gaza continues to be delayed.  Israelis are claiming there are not enough flak jackets for their soldiers and America must give Israel more money so they can invade Gaza.  The solidly pro-Israel Biden regime expresses concern that Israel has no workable plan for sending ground forces into Gaza, and are questioning whether the IDF can achieve its goal of annihilating the Hamas militant group. https://www.rt.com/news/585653-israel-gaza-invasion-plan/  There is concern that once the Israeli army is in Gaza Hamas will keep it there while Hezbollah overruns the rest of Israel.  Netanyahu is now threatening Hezbollah with nuclear weapons.

Israel’s use of nuclear weapons would leave Israel isolated in the world, which Israel already would be except for Israel’s American puppet state............more......
