Inside Israel's Complicated 'Whac-a-Mole' Dilemma: When the Solution Causes the Problem
Показать описание
Israel appears to have a classic "Whac-a-Mole" problem in Gaza. Even if the IDF is successful in destroying Hamas, the political situation remains unchanged---and actually the military battle makes it worse. Thus, a new group will rise from Hamas' ashes, and Israel will then have to engage with the new opponent. This process can repeat forever, similar to the arcade game Whac-a-Mole. Today's video covers the basic principles of Whac-a-Mole theory and why states nevertheless sometimes find engaging in the process worthwhile.
