"It Is Not Hamas That Is Collapsing, but Israel" ~Maj. Gen Yitzhak Brik
"If we continue fighting in Gaza by raiding & re-raiding the same targets, not only won't we bring Hamas to collapse, but we'll collapse ourselves."
We'll be "unable to carry out those repeated raids, because... the IDF grows weaker & the number of dead & wounded in action among our soldiers rises.
"Hamas, in contrast, has already replenished its ranks with 17- & 18-year-olds".
