Israel Informs Arab States It Wants Buffer Zone in Postwar Gaza, Sources Say

20. Clearly, they were not.

They were breached by the terrorists who invaded Israel, killed over a thousand civilians and took hundreds more hostage. It was they who did the killing, not any failure of intelligence. But sure, blame the victim, no matter how transparent and blatantly obscene this slight of hand may be.

Clearly, a buffer and a barrier are not sufficient to stop terrorism, or whatever else you are euphemistically referring to as "resistance". Hence the reference to both the buffer zone and the barrier in the context of ridding Gaza of Hamas and demilitarizing it.

And certainly, many people whose pay grade is way above yours and mine combined are taking demilitarization of Gaza seriously. Apparently, preparing for unending terrorism and unending occupation is not in their plans.

But you go ahead, prepare yourself for whatever you feel like. No obligation on any of the rest of us.
