Israel-Hamas war: Could Israel face a two-front problem?

A second front in the north could prove a real problem for Israel, Sky's Security and Defence Analyst Michael Clarke has said.

He added: "The Israelis have already massed some forces in Galilee, in the north, far more than they've put opposite the Gaza Strip, so they're already thinking about this problem."

International legal opinions. At present, based on the result of numerous UN resolutions that cite Article 49 of the Geneva Convention, the consensus view of the international community is that Israeli settlements are illegal and constitute a violation of international law.

I pray for the safety of civilians of both sides, love from TX, America!

I Feel so bad for the innocent civilians that die in these dumb wars on all sides 😢💔

It is a huge "red flag" that the Israels did not see this coming. Mossadf is possibly the best intelligence service in the world and there must have been tens of thousands of Hamas people preparing for this for probably months. Did Israel know about this and choose to let it happen because they knew that they would then have justification to escallate things much further, perhaps to go after Iran.

NOT SHARING INTEL OR WORKING TOGETHER HELPED THE SURPRISE ATTACK IMMENSELY.

During the Yom Kippur war, the Israelis wanted to preemptively hit Egypt and Syria but Kissinger told them not to because if Israel wanted American help, they couldn’t be seen as the aggressor, they had to wait. It’s very possible this same situation happened again. They knew but had to wait.

Now another war Micheal has to keep up with peace for the world

Praying for both sides to relieve all the tension! From Uranus

Never thought I would admit this, but I'm glad I'm an old

[harveytanner]

Man, my heart goes out to the innocent people on BOTH sides. War is a terrible thing. God bless from the USA.

Sky really needs to up their commentary. “We know there’s a 100 hostages” actually last time we looked there was over two million Palestinians hostage to Israel.

Shame on Israel for making Gaza an open air concentration camp, no one can take this amount of cruelty forever without fighting back.

thousand of prisoners they released - "Administrative detention" is a procedure that allows the Israeli military to hold prisoners indefinitely without charging them or allowing them to stand trial.

Soon it will be 4 front problem for Israel....!!

[KhakSaram]

No say on the fact that Israel has been conducting brutal acts of violence on the people of land and illegal occupied territories for decades !
