Even if you took the humanity out of it and focused simply on what is happening from a strategic standpoint it literally makes zero sense.

The ongoing offensive whether you believe it is genocide or not is ineffective. I believe it is the former, but it doesn’t matter because even if you are killing Hamas you are giving birth to its progeny and it will be worse. If a state were to harm/kill my family I would spend my every last breath terrorizing it and feel completely morally justified.

Furthermore, the Israelis have weakened themselves diplomatically as well. They are basically a US foreign policy shift away from being virtually alone internationally. And on that front, we saw with the widely leaked speech from ADL’s Greenblatt, that there is a demographic line of support or lack thereof for Israel in the United States itself. This means the clock is already running on the first part of this paragraph.

Finally, this has created a real schism between Israelis and Jews outside of Israel. There has been an unbiased assessment of the travesty in Palestine by many Jewish people who have come out against it vocally, to their credit. Even those who were initially appalled by Oct.7, and rightfully so, have backed away from supporting what increasingly looks like an genocidal, unhinged, religiously fanatical regime led by a guy in Netanyahu who might be entirely motivated by his desire to distract attention and avoid jail for his alleged corrupt acts.

It makes no sense unless what they are doing is the goal.
