Two minutes before sunrise in Israel - will Israel enter Gaza today?
I hope so.
I wish they’d just get it over with instead of dragging their feet on dealing with them. Saber rattling accomplishes nothing.
“will Israel enter Gaza today?”
What would be a worthwhile goal in doing so? Splitting Gaza into two?
Israel needs to ensure that Syria can’t invade in the north.
Syria has lots of battle-hardened troops after years of civil war.
“will Israel enter Gaza today?”
Maybe better to enter at night, taking advantage of better night vision equipment.
Before a ground assault, the enemy should be kept awake at least three nights, to reduce their effectiveness.
Before entering on the ground, it might be preferred to wait for civilians to evacuate, which might require a few more days without power or water.
More preparation with air strikes, generally reduces the losses among the soldiers who must go in, so it might be better to wait a bit for the bombs to do their work, unless the schedule is driven by other concerns.
