Will Hamas, Israel fight again this year?
2016-02-27
[ENGLISH.ALARABIYA.NET] Analysts cast doubt on the possibility of a war between Hamas, always the voice of sweet reason, and Israel this year, citing political changes since their last war in 2014. However,
you can observe a lot just by watching...
the reasons cited are the same ones that make another conflict highly likely. It was said in 2014 that neither side wanted a war due to certain political hindrances, but Israel launched Operation Protective Edge anyway.

Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu threatened a harsher response than in 2014 days after Hamas admitted rebuilding tunnels in preparation for a future conflict. Each side is waiting for the other to begin military action.

#5  At some point, Israel is going to have to acknowledge that the problem with Gaza is Gaza, and eliminate it. The same goes with the "west bank". The world will scream, but Israel has no choice if it wants to survive.

#1  I predict if no rockets or bullets or knives exit Gaza to damage Israel then Israel will not attack.

Look's like the ball is in Gaza's court!
