Gaza war to continue for at least two more months, says Israel defence minister
Middle East News: The four-day ceasefire between Israel and Hamas will commence Friday, but experts predict that fighting will intensify for at least two months after a

Two months is wildly optimistic.
US officials have spoken with their Israeli counterparts and found the Israelis have no long term plan. They’ll hit Gaza and then have no plan for after that. It won’t solve the longterm problems or make peace any easier. It’s just a Pyrrhic victory they’re going for by this point.
The thousands killed and all of the destruction caused will ensure that Gazans will never accept peace. The raids, displacement and murders that were committed in the West bank while the world was distracted by Gaza, will ensure that the Palestinians of the West bank won't be very happy with their government that wants peace with the oppressors.
There you go, peace is harder to achieve. Victory.
That's their whole point, the Israeli government does not want peace they want a nation with borders delineated by the talmud and the only way to get that is to ethnically cleanse everything within those borders.
But they will use up a whole load of arsenal and buy a lot more. Money for arms dealers.
They are also most likely testing an experimental weapon in Gaza judging by reports from medical staff there who are seeing a new type of injury.
This is horrible and disgusting, wtf
Yes, it's terrible. It also explains a lot - while culture and religion might be reasons for ordinary people to fight, their backers who make it possible usually have a financial incentive.
Specific reportage about the likely new experimental weapons in use right now is mostly from sources like Al Jazeera but the underlying practice has been well-established by western journalists too.
