    It's a little from Column A and a little from Column B kind of thing. Column A suggests people are getting indoctrinated. Column B suggests the oppressive acts (real and imagined) are leading to more. And the acts of Column B are making Column A easier.

    Probably, but Column A is still happening either way.

    A sign both ways: 1) Hamas no longer considers Israeli bodies as valued possessions; 2) Israel has written all hostages off as dead already.

    So it's like Colin Powell's Chinese menu?

    You're spinning now to fit try to fit your "no plan" narrative.

    What the story actually says is that he wants a NEW plan.

    Benny Gantz may be to the left of Netanyahu, but I wouldn’t call him a centrist. He’s the former defense minister!

    Right. Obviously. He is part of the coalition that willingly lent his name to this government in order to give Netanyahu power. So he's obviously not Bernie Sanders to Josh Hawley. He's sort of a more likable (at this point) Netanyahu.

    What that really was about. ... Gantz's popularity has grown a lot (as Netanyahu's keeps sinking). If there are new elections, Gantz is the odds on favorite to replace Netanyahu as PM. That was Benny Gantz sensing weakness and making his move.

    So this is a horrible accident (and I use "horrible" loosely here) that will be blamed on Israel
    or
    Israel found a way to plant a bug in the helicopter and will be blamed but will deny it to various and vigorous debate
    or
    Israel did the above mentioned and will flip a finger to Iran and say come at me bro.

    In any case, be ready for the accusations to fly.
