| With Iraq on his mind, US ‘savior-general’ Petraeus points at a way to victory in Gaza |
| 2024-03-18 |
[IsraelTimes] Hamas ...one of the armed feet of the Moslem Brüderbund millipede,...must be destroyed, argues ex-general and CIA director David Petraeus in Tel Aviv, and then Israel must pivot to a counterinsurgency. As the campaign to eliminate Hamas stretches into its sixth month, a storied American general credited with changing the course of the Iraq War now sees a clear path to victory for Israel in Gazoo |

| #14 The only victory will be to remove all Palestinians from Gaza. Otherwise it is damping down the fires of hate for a while. No victories, only casualties. |

| #12 Another point is how well Petraeus' brilliant Iraq strategy worked out. |

| #11 Imagine some ‘supremacists’ would do that to your community. They're call environmentalists and climate activists in this country, and often government bureaucrats. |

| #8 Is there a common factor? Well, Israel is about 8000 sq miles, the size of Massachusetts. US battles are fought on a global, not neighborhood scale. I would say the common factor is logistics. Oh, and the US is providing supplies to everyone. |

| #5 The common factor in "winning but loosing" is because we have leaders that decide winning would look bad. So they piss in the punch bowl. |

| #3 USA wins most of the battles - but always loses the war. Israel always wins the wars, otherwise we wouldn't exist - but always loses the subsequent peace process. Is there a common factor? |

| #1 "The foundational concepts of counterinsurgency are that you clear an area, you hold it, and you hold it in a very significant manner" Worked well for the Green Zone. |
