Israel has sacrificed soldiers lives and the country’s treasure into the war against Hamas. It won’t easily be dissuaded.
A recent report about a falling Palestinian birth rate has changed the reality for Israel to some extent. It is a profound finding. The international community of activists need to give leaders some space on this.
I am concerned the flotilla (click here) due to arrive at Gaza will not be welcome. At this point Israel is still prioritizing war over peace. Other pressures may bring about a change in the way Israel is approaching the war’s final outcome.
Israel needs to be careful, the humanitarian flotilla is unarmed. Perhaps transferring humanitarian aid to Israeli boats may be a way for the aid to be distributed. I will be pleasantly surprised if the flotilla is allowed to
the shores of Gaza.
