Retired Israeli General Yitzhak Brick stated just a couple of weeks ago, ”Israel is sinking deeper into the Gazan mud, losing more and more soldiers as they get killed or wounded, without any chance of achieving the war’s main goal: bringing down Hamas. The country really is galloping towards the edge of an abyss. If the war of attrition against Hamas and Hezbollah continues, Israel will collapse within no more than a year.”

None of which equates to any 'collapse' - they should have taken my advice and finished it quickly - fewer casualties that way and less time for the dorks with no real idea or genuine interest to get all toey about it.... declare the remaining Hamas holds a free fire zone - give everyone who wants out a week to do so and be checked for weapons and face checked etc.... them flatten it and bring the boys and girls home.

It's coming anyway.... Syria and Lebanon and Iran are acting up .... at least tidy up the southern front.

Remember the VC tunnels at Cu Chi?  They tried tunnel rats, gas, water from rivers, and so on.... no real effect - finally they de-forested it and declared the entire region a free fire zone, where artillery could fire any time, and especially where aircraft with bombs unused could just offload them - alongside programmed strikes using delayed action fuses so the bombs dove deep before exploding and either blew the tunnels in or earth quaked them.
