Let Netanyahu Win!

Israel has an imperative for survival, wipe out Hamas as a fighting and terror force conclusively. 

No more phony, lying, instigated "peace talks" by enabler and appeasers who have nothing to lose as Isreal has everything to lose! 

This will also help the current anti-Muslim Brotherhood government in Egypt. m/r

Netanyahu Is Winning | National Review Online

His strategy to divide Hamas and Fatah, and strengthen the latter, seems to be working. 

Clausewitz famously noted, “War is the continuation of policy by other means.”
Correspondingly, Israel’s military campaign in Gaza has had two objectives. First, to degrade and deter Hamas rocket teams. Second, to weaken Hamas as a political actor.
On both counts, Israel appears to be finding success. Rocket strikes from Gaza are decreasing in frequency, and Hamas is suffering major losses. Yesterday, 150 Hamas fighters surrendered to Israeli forces in the strategic Gaza–Egypt border town of Rafah.
Most significantly, however, Palestinian Authority president Mahmoud Abbas is signaling a major split with Hamas.

On Wednesday, Abbas supported the Hamas “strings attached” negotiating position — accepting the idea of a ceasefire only so long as Israel loosens its economic blockade of Gaza. However, yesterday, following discussions with Jordan’s King Abdullah, Abbas said that Egypt’s ceasefire proposal, which includes no such concession and was previously rejected by Hamas, “should be approved.” This change in tone is a clear break in Palestinian unity. Conversely, Hamas chairman Khaled Mashal, insists his group won’t accept a ceasefire until the economic blockade of Gaza is lifted, Palestinian prisoners released, and border controls relaxed (all prerequisites Israel won’t accept). Repudiating Hamas, Abbas claimed that those issues could be addressed “after” any ceasefire.
As I explained last week, driving a wedge into the Fatah–Hamas unity government is a key priority for Netanyahu.
