Episode notes
Information Warfare
- Israel was losing the information war, but has since improved their media strategy.
- They shifted towards a traditional counterinsurgency campaign, similar to the battle of Ramadi.
Means vs. Will
- Hamas, like the South in the U.S. Civil War, may have the will to fight but lack the resources to sustain it.
- Their technological and manufacturing capabilities are no match for Israel's.
Unified Front?
- The apparent unified Palestinian front supporting Hamas might be deceptive.
- Many likely show support out of fear and a desire for self-preservation.
