“There will be no shelter for terrorism in Gaza, in the West Bank, in Lebanon, neither above ground nor in tunnel shafts. We will operate in the most complex places to strike terrorists,” he [IDF Chief of Staff Herzi Halev] said.

——————————————
the very high kills/day rate by the gazan jihadis
in negev during the 07oct2023 atrocities proba-
bly triggered the dedication by the israelis for
war, to a much stronger degree of the past wars
the gazans seem to have crossed a threshold of
sorts where the inhumane degree of the atrocities
were beyond logic and lots of israelis understood
what would be in store for them if the jihadis were
to attack again
this created a great fear in them and a sense of
survival took over and now they seem to be fight-
ing tooth and nail to stop repeats of the atrocities
so no many more will die on both sides, but at
least the israelis are armed and are soldiers
instead of music festivals goers and farmers
lessons learnt the hard way to be complacent in
regards to the gazans next door
