Maybe the plan is super secret, or maybe there's no plan.

1. Encouraging.

2. Excellent video.

This video does a great job of explaining the differences in prioritizing civilian safety between Netanyahu's war in Gaza and the US war in Iraq. Clearly, Netanyahu has a vested interest in keeping this war going and it seems clear he doesn't care about innocent civilian deaths.

It would be good if CNN gave their videos an ID number at the bottom of the screen, so you could refer other people to them on sites like Yahoo that don't allow external links.

5. You could give the title of the video so they can search Youtube to find it

They can search within the CNN Youtube channel to narrow it down.

3. Could it be they know the shit is hitting the fan and would like to remain military officials? n/t

6. They expect Israel will have a new Prime Minister soon

and they want to keep their careers.

4. The need for vengeance, on both sides of this conflict, is insured for at least a generation.

Short of the rest of the world stepping in and rebuilding Gaza and giving the Palestinians an optimistic future, I just can’t see the he the cycle breaking. Using “the US serge in Iraq” as an example of how to do the military thing correctly was a stretch. The US has never acknowledged the numbers of civilians killed in Iraq.
