> Germany was still launching ballistic missiles at England a month after Dresden. Just in the past 24 hours, there were rockets launched from Gaza toward Ashdod - https://www.timesofisrael.com/two-rockets-fired-at-ashdod-idf-says-many-hamas-fighters-killed-in-gaza-city-push/ https://www.timesofisrael.com/two-rockets-fired-at-ashdod-id... > hamas has no real military capacity to do much anymore They're still in control of a significant minority of Gaza territory. "Destroy military assets and get out" can sometimes be a useful strategy, but it's a pretty short term solution. > what goals they want to achieve and why The goal seems to be occupation of the entire strip, to make it difficult for Hamas (and PIJ etc) to operate effectively.

"significant minority of Gaza territory" you obviously don't know what you are talking about.

  Do you have some kind of response that isn't just an ad hominem?

    There is no such thing as significant minority. Therefore your argument is predicated on nothing, and a loss of time.

      > There is no such thing as significant minority. Huh? You'll have to explain that one.

        It is not possible to be a member of significant minority, this would be a fallacy. But, I'm not as good as AI in explaining this and thus looked it up in Google: While "significant minority" is not an established logical fallacy, it can be used to commit two related fallacies: the appeal to minority and a flawed variation of the appeal to popularity (ad populum). This rhetorical tactic exploits the audience's biases by using the status of a group, rather than evidence, to argue for a claim

> They're still in control of a significant minority of Gaza territory If so its only because Israel decided to allow them to maintain that control. > but it's a pretty short term solution. Exactly, that seems to be Israel’s strategy. If they actually destroyed Hamas the rightwing government in Israel would lose the bogeyman keeping them in power (that’s why they were propping up Hamas for years).
