^^^ All the above, thousands of deaths, and the only actual reason that makes any sense is one man desperate throw of the dice to deflect from the disgrace and scandal that really defines his Presidency. That is what it really comes back to! But Isreal in the mix you say? Well Nethanayu is facing elections in 6 months, Gaza has played out too early, and spinning it out has way overplayed what was justifiable defensive action against Hamas. The Israeli public is sensitive to that, and the deepening international condemnation brings; he sees his only hope is to, once again, play the existential threat to Israel card, so this manufactures one. Two flailing political leaders, unhindered by scruples, and their attempts to prop up their power bases coincide!
