‘Gaza action not likely’
Despite the harsh warning by Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu that Israel could expand operations against Hamas in Gaza as much as needed, some analysts think the cabinet meeting taking place now will not end with a decision to launch a wider campaign.
Instead, they say, the sentiment by Defense Minister Moshe Ya’alon that “we must think with our head, not with our gut,” will likely carry the day, and the IDF will not carry out a large revenge campaign after the killing of the three teens.
Yaalon say Hamas will pay a heavy price but add that we need to act after thinking and not to rush
