Trap.

This is coolbert:

"'If Israeli forces start a ground operation in the Gaza Strip, it will mean that the country will fall into the 'Iranian trap' and start acting according to the Iranian plan.'"

"Israeli Major General: We will fall into an Iranian trap in Gaza"

When David Ivry speaks we must all listen! The worse case scenario for the Middle East I am afraid. David the retired one-time head of the Israeli Air Force [IAF]. This man presumably well aware of possible action and consequences.

"Israeli Major General is sounding the alarm as he talks of an 'Iranian trap' being set for the Israeli Army once the IDF ground operation in Gaza begins."

"This assessment of the unfolding events was given by the former commander of the IDF Air Force, Major General David Ivry."

"According to the military expert, Hamas attacks will force the Israel Defense Forces to respond with a ground invasion of Gaza."

"But when Israeli troops bog down in a ground operation, Israel will be attacked from Lebanon and the West Bank. This will lead to more serious consequences"

A quick and dirty ground assault of Gaza by the Israeli army will become a bogged-down quagmire instead?

THE GREATER THREAT FROM HEZBOLLAH! POSSESSING MORE CONVENTIONAL FIREPOWER THAN THE MEDIUM-SIZED MILITARY POWERS OF GREAT BRITAIN AND FRANCE. THREAT OF A TWO-FRONT WAR FOR ISRAEL A POSSIBLE!

Iranian proxies doing the dirty work with Tehran in the background the brains behind the scene? You the Israeli are responding to the enemy and they are not responding to you?
