Any person in a blue helmet will not do a thing.

How does a UN school get outfitted as a rocket manufacturing facility and booby trapped without the complicity of the same people? Ans: It doesn’t. Hamas and the UN are complicit in the deaths at that school.

The final upshot is that Israel lost again. Anything less than total victory by the IDF is perceived as victory for Hamas and by proxy, Iran. (And I am using Ralph Peters definition of victory – when the guy you are fighting asks for you to stop, then you have won.) What that means is that victory over Hamas is impossible, they will not quit outside of the grave. So victory must be redefined per necessity as death for them – annihilation.
