Ground Attack?

 A ground invasion into Gaza with no clear long-term objective is a recipe for a no-win war that will be bad for Israel & bad for the U.S. Debating this issue NOW isn’t anti-Israel, it’s pro-Israel & pro-America. Here’s what I worry is about to happen:

1. Israel mounts a ground invasion of Gaza imminently.  

2. Hezbollah strikes Israel from the North, making good on its threat for Israel crossing the red line of invading Gaza. 

3. Once Israel is in a two-front war, the U.S. is effectively forced to engage militarily.

4. Iran-backed militias in Iraq & Yemen attack U.S. targets in the Middle East, making good on their threats if the U.S. engages in Israel.

5. Civilian casualties in Gaza cause other countries to turn their backs on Israel, while radicalized Palestinians back Hamas 2.0 to fill the leadership vacuum in Gaza.

Commenters:

I’m sure your 0.0000 years of experience in foreign affairs and military strategy means your opinion on this subject is extremely valid.

Because people with more years of experience have been doing such a good job, especially Joe Biden with his decades of experience.

Me: Very nice. We want to avoid a full out war. But what does Vivek want us to do? Let them continue developing terror cells in Azza to kill more Jews? Vivek admittedly doesn't care that much [b/c he only cares about American interests by his own admission] but we do. So what SHOULD Israel do?

There is ONE answer for us: 

TEHIIILLLLIIIIIMMMMMMMMM and other zchuyos ruchniyos. We don't have to decide. And Baruch Hashem b/c millions and millions of lives [actually billions b/c this connects to the whole globe] depend on this.
