What is Israel’s endgame in Gaza?
- Military operations in Gaza make sense for Israel, an analyst says
Editor’s note: This is a companion piece to What is Hamas’s endgame in Gaza?
(CNN) — A river of blood runs through Gaza, as homes are smashed to rubble and hospital emergency rooms overflow. The volley of Hamas rockets into Israel continues, even when met with the preeminent firepower of the Israeli military’s bombs, missiles and shells.
The legions of dead are swelling by the hundreds. It’s horrifying. But the world has seen it all before — twice. Operation Protective Edge looks much like its forerunners in 2008 and 2012.
Hamas won’t back down. And Israel refuses to stop until it feels the job is done.

Israel: We do not target civilians
‘This is hurting Israel’s moral authority’
U.N.: 70% killed in Gaza are civilians
Millions around the world watch and ask: What could Israel hope to achieve?
CNN put that question and others to two seasoned Israeli columnists: one a former military correspondent, the other a human rights journalist focusing on Palestinians.
Though they disagreed on many points, they surprisingly concurred on some others. This is how they answered:

Ian………Very good insight that no imagination of man will call into being evil to prevail over God’s will! I will stand with you to clear the land of wickedness as we are called to do through his Spirit. God Bless You.

In these days Israel is going to stand completely alone facing the world for the carnal world hates God and so will do everything in its power to destroy this nation. Even here in New Zealand two activist praised on national Television the burning of an Israeli flag along with one other, think it was USA flag (not sure). One activist likened to the “Palestinians” to the oppression He feels his race has faced in New Zealand over the years and thinks Israel should leave these people alone. He offered no words on these people attacking Israel but focused on what the “world news media” was focusing on in their broadcasts.
The secular world cannot understand what is going on in Israel and therefore see everything through carnal eyes. People can go on TV and and give their worldly opinions which in the end count for absolutely nothing. God has a plan for this nation and has never wavered from it and never will and it will be fulfilled no matter what any nation, tribe or people try to do to Israel.
From my understanding that land and more was given to Israel by God Almighty himself and it is only the carnal man that has given it away. Also Palestine was a region not a people so the identity they have adopted is a false one.
They say there is always two sides to a story, in fact there are three, God word is the third and the absolute truth. Two people may argue and still never agree, but God’s word will never return to him void and His will, will be done, whether any man likes it not.
Israel in this case is in a no win situation at all and those in the world will focus on how evil this nation is as a preclude to standing against with the full force of the worldly nations.
In the flesh as commander of the the land, I would clear the ground totally and never let these people back. Those that wanted to leave could leave and take all their belongings with them, but I would absolutely clear the ground of the enemy that stood before me and take back that what was given to my nation by the Lord God Almighty. My armies would not rest until task had been completed.
