Before launching "an illegal war on Iran, Trump should have noted Israel’s complete failure to destroy Hamas after pounding this small territory from the air for two years."

Before launching "an illegal war on Iran, Trump should have noted Israel’s complete failure to destroy Hamas after pounding this small territory from the air for two years."

... a failure all the starker given the US's endless supply of munitions. 

Even "Israeli ground forces failed to quell Hamas’ resistance."

These were the strategic lessons the US should have learnt.

Israel is making sure Trump can't find an off-ramp in Iran

Netanyahu pitched the war as a repeat of Israel’s apparent 'audacious feat' of smashing Hezbollah. The US president should have noted instead Israel’s moral and strategic defeat in Gaza
