    Egypt warned Israel about this attack. Egypt is not an enemy of Israel and hasn’t been for a long time. Also >inside of their territory. Since when is Gaza part of Israel’s territory?? Pretty biased language there.

      They control the territory militarily, it’s defacto Israeli territory. I don’t wish it to be so, but it is.

      From a Military perspective intentions don’t matter, only capabilities. Egypt is a theater competitor, it would be foolish to give them more military capabilities.

        Oh I didn’t know the Golan Heights were basically Austrian Territory when they controlled during their UN Mandate. See how stupid that sounds? If a peace force would move in the IDF would obviously not be in military control anymore there.

        A theater competitor for what theater? The Yom Kippur War was 50 years ago.

          The Austrians would be foolish not to collect intelligence where their troops were deployed. It’s about capabilities. A military presence is a risk, and it’s part of the political calculus.

          I’m happy to debate with you but I ask that you not make personal attacks (calling me stupid) when we both have useful perspectives to contribute to the conversation.
