Signaling defeat, Israel asked for an extension of the seventy-two hour cease fire. “Engarde, Israel!” Mohammed Deifs military victory is the necessary precursor to the ultimate goal of political victory; freedom for Gaza. Israel has been dealing from a stacked deck of cards for decades thanks to America and their pals across the globe. Suddenly, as is the case with the pure statistics of history, Hamas has been dealt a perfect hand; four aces. First, Hamas has inflicted sever damage to the overwhelming might of the Israeli military and the Israeli economy. This week arrogant Israelis were shocked at the news of the 1600 plus severely injured Israeli soldiers. Reports indicate that the official Israeli death toll, which is stated to be sixty-four, is a low-ball fabrication. Hence, it is no wonder that the Israeli militarys Chief of Staff Lt. Gen. Benny Gantz went to so far as to declare: “We now [the Israeli military] move into a period of rehabilitation.” Israel’s Operation Protective Edge in Gaza has cost the country’s economy some $1.44 billion, its central bank governor Karnit Flug said this past Thursday. The assessment is that it can reach up to around 0.5 percent of GDP, which is up to 5 billion shekels, he told Israels Channel Ten television. Worse, after all that the Israeli military admitted, “Hamas is still standing and left with most of its military infrastructure unscathed, provides it [volunteers] with the core of a regular Palestinian army, which the Islamists did not have before the launch of Operation Defensive Edge on July 7.” Which leads to the second ace.
