US official says Israel's Rafah strikes not major military operation
We’ll see.
[GEO.TV] In response to Israel's recent strikes on the southern Gaza city of Rafah, a US official has stated that these actions do not constitute a major military operation.

While expressing concern, the United States is specifically focused on preventing a large-scale offensive in densely populated areas of Rafah. According to the official, it appears that the Israeli forces are not currently engaged in such an operation.

The situation is being closely monitored by the international community as tensions persist in the region.

#4 It is certainly not a major military operation compared to, say, the D-Day Invasion in WWII. And if it is not a major military op, the our State Dept doesn't need to do anything more than sit on the sidelines and bitch express concern.

Maybe we could send a couple crates of those robot flamethrower dogs. Lead, follow, or get out of the way.
