[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]To answer the original question, from the standpoint of destroying tunnels that it took Hamas years to build, Israel achieved one of it's military objectives in short order. On the other hand, Israel looks pretty stupid for having underestimated the extent of the tunnels. [/quote] I read a military analyst (sorry, I don't have the link) say that the latest war will have little effect on reducing the rocket attacks into Israel. Hamas keeps a large reserve of rockets deep in Gaza which Israel can't destroy without inflicting much larger a number of casualties on both sides. Hamas will be back to the same level of ability to launch rockets within a year. However, the current war did set the tunnel building back many years, and give Israel important information on how to detect the tunnels in the future. In that sense Israel achieved its military objective of keeping its border secure. [/quote]
