You know how Tzahal keeps claiming that they have “taken control” of
some part of Gaza, only for fighting to resume there again, until they
claim they have “taken control” of it again? And then the fighting
starts over?

No, it doesn’t make sense. Netanyahu’s Government is good at
massacring civilians, not so good at actually achieving any military
objectives. From
<https://www.aljazeera.com/news/liveblog/2024/2/24/israels-war-on-gaza-live-unrwa-no-longer-functional-in-north-gaza>,
here is an attempt by an Israeli army chief to explain why they have
to keep fighting in areas they “control”:

Herzi Halevi ... spoke in vague terms about why intense clashes
continue in northern and central Gaza, areas that Israel’s
military swept through in earlier days of the war during ground
operations.

“There are areas we have already been to, and we are returning
with better intelligence and making an achievement that is much
higher and much deeper, literally, even into the ground, as well
in hitting the enemy,” he said in a video address.

“There are places we passed through at a very high rate of combat,
and we are returning to places to purify space at a very, very
high level. These things bring another level of operatives,
another level of commanders, more destruction of infrastructure.”

Clear as mud? “Purify at a very, very high level ... returning with
better intelligence and making an achievement that is much higher and
much deeper”. As if they already “achieved” something when they first
went in and destroyed those areas, that they have to come back and
destroy them some more.

It was clear from the beginning that Netanyahu will not be the one to
lead Israel to any kind of military “victory” in Gaza. I see that the
protests by his own citizens against his conduct of the war are
getting more frequent and harder to suppress.

Nope, controlling an area isnt the same thing as killing all the Hamas
there.

Nothing wrong with that.

Or that either.

Killing Hamas, stupid.

Should be obvious

Should be obvious even to someone as stupid as you.

Corse they did. Lots of dead Palestinians.

Never happened.

Even sillier than you usually manage and that's saying something.

We'll see...

Over 30,000 dead so far, and counting.

So what are they “controlling”, then, if they are letting some of those
attacking them live?

But you just said they were letting some live.

That's the Hamas CLAIM, fuckwit.

And that's a tiny subset of those in Gaza, fuckwit.

Even a terminal fuckwit such as yourself should have
noticed that Hamas hasnt done another Oct 7, fuckwit.
