Israel faces a problem. If it launches a ground invasion, it has to destroy everything in sight, because Israeli society can’t tolerate casualties on its side. They like high-tech massacres, they don’t want an actual war and to see their own casualties. But they can’t do this and kill everything in sight, because after the 2008 conflict—when 1400 Palestinians were killed, up to 1200 of whom were civilians, while on the Israeli side 13 were killed, and only 3 were civilians—the international community will not tolerate such a bloodbath on the part of Israel. Therefore Israel faces this dilemma: It can’t stop the Hamas rocket attacks without a ground invasion, but it can’t launch a ground invasion without massive Palestinian death and destruction which the international community won’t allow.
