Hamas, unfortunately has the winning hand. They have an infinite supply of ammunition, namely the Palestinian people who they have no problem sacrificing because, well they have an infinite supply. Fueled by the world wanting harm to Israel and an Israeli leadership with no balls, they are invincible.
Could the US have ever lost in Viet Nam? Not militarily. Incompetent leadership brought defeat. But unlike the US who was a gazillion miles away from Viet Nam the Israelis are in the middle of them mess.
This war will end inconclusively since Israel is not fighting it to win. They could, of course win militarily any time they chose. It is better to ask forgiveness than ask permission which unfortunately is not what they will do.
Hopefully the talk of having a UN peace keeping is just blather to keep Israeli enemies off the scent of a decisive victory. Because in Greek the phrase “UN Peace Keeping Force” means can’t find a Palestinian violation with two hands and a flashlight.
