Israeli Officials , " We Have Taught the Hamas, a lesson, we have reduced rocket fire into our communities, ".

Israel expended some billion dollars, in military and economic resources. The Hamas, a few million dollars , but now the Hamas instead of obtaining a 100 million dollars or so a year, Hamas will now receive several billion. Saudi Arabia has already pledged one billion. . Hamas will rebuild , rearm, and become more powerful than ever.

Hamas with its state actors such as Iran , Syria and etc. has successfully inflamed an International global pandemic of distain and hatred for Israel , and Jewish People everywhere.

Israel will not only have to endure more terrorists attacks, more rocket fire, but under International pressure be required to show even more restraint, endure more losses.

As Rocket fire begins again, Hamas will say, It's not us, its them, we are doing everything we can, Israel must show more restrain, etc. . sound familiar ??

If Israel had removed Hamas, it would have sent a clear message , to Iran, to Syria, to Hezbollah and Global Terrorism

But now they only message Israel has sent is , " Ever Again"
