"Those describing scenarios of all-out war should pay attention to the little details.." - Amos Harel
Pay attention to the details? That takes a lot of work Mr. Harel. It is much easier to simply ignore reality and chant the ritual incantations of ideology.
"For instance, the IDF informed its professional soldiers that they need to use up their vacation days by the end of the year, since they won`t be able to hold them over until next year." - Amos Harel
An interesting detail.
"That directive applies to the Southern Command, which is responsible for Gaza, as well - despite the escalation and the feeling of war in the air." - Amos Harel
So, the war will have to wait until next month. A few weeks of heavy fighting is just what the Firm of Livni and Barak need to show voters how tough they are.
If it started now folks would be asking question about why it had failed in February. If it starts next month they will still be cheered by the prospect of victory. |
