When politicians want war but generals don't, who you gonna listen to?

Case in point; the much anticipated Gaza land invasion. Over 300,000 IDF reservists have been cooling their heels at the Gaza fence for two and a half weeks by now. Set the way-back machine to three weeks ago, and a lot of those reservists were doing what? Taking to the streets and protesting against Netanyahu, that’s what! And while every last one is prepared to avenge what happened on 10/7, they’ve now had two and a half weeks to think it through and stew over it… A Gaza ground invasion is going to be a brutal undertaking. They know the odds are good that they’ll be dead. For what? How many of them truly believe killing more Palestinians will bring peace to Israel? How many have come to the realization they’re about to give up their lives for the greater glory of The Greatest Leader since Moses? And you can bet the generals aren’t thrilled either. It’s too bad they never speak the truth till they’ve retired, but any number of retired IDF senior staff talk about Hezbollah having a missile inventory in the hundreds of thousands. Iron Dome is overwhelmed by a few dozens. Meanwhile, Netanyahu still barks war war war… Let’s pray those reservists and the senior IDF leadership can find the courage to say no to more death and destruction. Peace now!
