what happens if they try and call off the ground invasion though? hamas will just attack again even if they flatten all of gaza, so will hezbollah, so israel's credibility is shot, it's not like they can go back to a status quo antebellum. honestly they're hosed if they do go in and hosed if they don't

there has to be some serious poo poo going on behind the scenes, trying to get Israel to deescalate...

if israel doesn't go in, that's bad for the israeli apartheid state. if israel goes in and gets bloodied, that's bad for the whole imperial project.

if they call off the ground invasion its over for israel and Iran is king of the hill, check mate. they have to go in to save themselves even if it ends up still destroying them and making Iran king of the hill.

However, as Hersh said they want to go the Leningrad route allowing for the spread of disease, starvation, and dehydration as they keep feinting their ground invasion, Will anyone intervene before the situation becomes even more untenable and horrifying. Accounting the 4500 officially dead, the at least 1500 missing presumed dead under rubble, and the fighters who have died, Israel has martyred more Palestinians tin the last 2 weeks then the 2 intifadas combined.

Didnt they estimate that Gaza needs at least 100 relief trucks per day to even begin to address the humanitarian crisis?

There are a million things we don't know but this part has been itching the back of my brain for a while. It's entirely possible Israel just... doesn't do anything but sit behind the walls and keep up intermittent bombing, and a back and forth song and dance between Hezbollah and a few militias isn't going to do anything to alleviate Gaza's suffering. The fact is time is essentially on Israel's side, they're not going to run out of billions in western aid anytime soon, they can keep putting off this invasion indefinitely and arguably do more damage via siege warfare than they would ever manage to accomplish fighting street to street. An escalated regional conflict is not really in Israel's rational interest, but it's honestly probably the only chance Palestinians have now for liberation and I'm concerned none of the powers at play are going to make the calculation that it's worth sticking their neck out for them.

israel is close to full military mobilisation and netanyahu's entire political project rests on israeli military impunity. they absolutely cannot afford to stay in a situation like this for very long, either economically or politically. they also have a limited amount of munitions and airframe hours to use for bombing the place.

they could starve the entire place until there was no more life, but that might actually trigger a regional war

RE: genocidal intent chat, intent only matters when its a member of the rules based international order who needs cover for their crimes. Otherwise its completely either ignored or evidence of intent is just manufactured whole cloth in order to condemn.
