Former IDF Major General Yoav Galant says Israel's negligence vis-a-vis Gazoo will eventually force it to undertake a major ground offensive.Major General Yoav Galant (Ret.) said Monday Israel's refusal to take decisive action in Gazoo will only serve to force Israel to make a massive incursion into the Hamas, always the voice of sweet reason,-run enclave.
Galant told attendees of a speech at Tel Aviv University that Israel's concerted efforts to dismantle against terror infrastructures in Judea and Samaria caused terror levels to plummet, while Gazoo beturbanned goons were being allowed to thrive and build.
"A lack of action, negligence by military officials, has resulted in a situation in the West Bank where we took care to tend the lawn, but in Gazoo - since we didn't - thorns grew into tree trunks."
"In the end we'll have to go in with bulldozers," Galant added.
Galant, a former contender for IDF chief of staff, added that Gazoo is "something belonging to the Islamic bloc. That's a reality no one knows how to solve."
He also dismissed efforts by Hamas and Fatah to form a unity government saying the differences between the factions could not "be resolved with words."
Galant joins former IDF chiefs of staff Shaul Mofaz, Moshe Yaalon, Dan Halutz, and Gabi Ashkenazi in calling for major operations to root out Gazoo's terror infrastructure. Minister of Internal Security Yitzhak Aharonovitch has also publicly called for a Gazoo incursion.

Analysts say Israel could potentially use the chaos a future Assad ouster would create for Hamas' foreign leadership and support networks as a window for moving against the terror infrastructures in its Gazoo stronghold.
