The newspaper that contains this article is more leftwing by orders of magnitude than the New York Times. It has a circulation of about 30,000 in Israel and lots of international BDSers and other Israel haters.

There is broad consensus in Israel that this is the time to eliminate Hamas as a credible threat to Israel. Obama, through John Kerry, is bullying Israel into limiting the operation to destroying a few tunnels. Netanyahu has bent to Obama’s pressure repeatedly. Without the pressure exerted on him by rightwingers like Danny Danon, Naftali Bennett and Avigdor Lieberman, Netanyahu’s policies at this time would be close to those of Tzipi Livni. She is the former conservative turned leftwinger whom Netanyahu appointed to negotiate with the Arabs. Thankfully, the conservatives are aligned with public perceptions.

Only leftwing trolls argue that the tunnel destruction at the border is sufficient.

Here’s the same information about the primary goal being the tunnels from Fox News ... :-) ...

It was the “left wing troll” Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu who announced it ... LOL ...

Netanyahu said the military’s primary goal would be to destroy underground tunnels used by Hamas to attack the Jewish State. The announcement came hours after Israeli ground troops and tanks struck more than 100 terror targets in Israel’s first major ground offensive in Gaza in just over five years.
