This operation is going to accomplish absolutely nothing to improve Israel`s security. At the same time, one look at the international reaction makes it clear that it has done severe damage to Israel`s position globally. Take this:
"In northern Iraq, where Kurds are a majority of the population, most residents had a more favorable view of Israel before the attacks.
Arza Khale, 24, said: “Before seeing the attack in the TV on Gaza, I was not against Israel, but after what I saw, now I despise Israel and am with the Palestinians in any reaction they might do. I used to believe that Israel and Palestinians could live to gather, but after what I saw in the TV, I believe that it is an impossible request.” "
And so on. A complete failure -- and it was obvious from the start that this would be the outcome. It may well help the government get reelected, though. Is that why so many had to die? |
