#4 adds to the mystery of what's going on here. why did they agree to the ceasefire in Gaza? where do they stand vis-a-vis Iran? the differences between Barak and Netanyahu have been growing stronger every week. only time will tell - what this really means.

#6 The Israelis agreed to the ceasefire because they got what they wanted --
They whacked a bunch of Hamas bad boyz
They demonstrated that Iron Dome works
They demonstrated that Egypt won't materially help Hamas
The round is over, so the Israelis felt good about going to their corner and getting ready for the next round.

#7 Israel's successful live-fire exercise tested the IDF mobilization scheme, highlighted the Iranian connection and undoubtedly made visible a number of Iranian communications and logistics venues. It also put a little Rabbi Mint in the Hildebeast's mouth as she trek'd through Israel. Short-term benefits, long-term benefits... all bases covered.
