Israel must destroy Hamas as a military and political force in the territory while minimizing harm to civilians.
And for all of that to happen effectively, Benjamin Netanyahu must go.
Why — to paraphrase Scarborough and his co-hosts — was Netanyahu asking Qatar to fund Hamas to the tune of hundreds of millions just weeks before the massacre?
Why was the bulk of the Israeli military nowhere near Gaza in the first hours of the attack?
When an Israeli minister is forced to humiliate himself on American TV because he can muster neither the sophistry nor the servility that a smoother answer would require, it’s a sign he’s in the wrong government.
