My heart breaks not only for the dead, injured, and displaced Palestinians, but also for the young Israelis, most of whom signaled in the streets well before the Hamas attack that they were done with the power and land-grabbing elders running the country. Now they are being forced to risk their lives to provide land, comfort, and a supposed glory for the Likud wingers whom they were railing against. Netanyahu is the key obstruction to peace, which is why Benny Gantz withdrew. Bibi is driven by his own corruption and a need to find the glory that his hero brother earned through bravery and valor and that has eluded Bibi all his miserable life. His legacy will not be one of heroism; it will be his feeding and reinvigorating the Three H's, Hamas, Hezbollah, and Houthi. He's done a lot of recruiting for them.
