I think the Israelis are contemplating flattening villages down to the last house,

Well that would be a start. Of course doing it a week ago would have been better. I just don't know if the Western world retains even the semblance of a backbone that would be required to do the things they need to do to win. We are as doomed as the Incas who refused to give up their highly ritualized forms of warfare and as a result were destroyed by vastly inferior Spanish forces.

If the hezz were in a poker game with the IDF and the rules were applied to that as in the war, guess who would walk away with all the money.
