Israel has drafted a record 300,000 reservists in its response to a multi-front Hamas attack from Gaza and is "going on the offensive," the chief military spokesperson said on Monday.

I can't think even for a moment that this was not expected by those who fostered the surprise attack. So what's the end game? Israel will occupy and absorb Palestine...there's no question about that now. Since the planners and schemers knew this would happen what are they planning to do about it? I think the answer is obvious. This is about taking the retreat option away in a larger confrontation.
Palestine will no longer be a bargaining chip.
I have a feeling That was the point of this entire conflict.

The end game is to get all Muslim fronts to attack Israel and destroy it. It has been the purpose of Muslims since 1920 when they heard that the Jews were going to be allowed to rebuild their nation on their own Jewish Homeland.
Iran supplies Hamas in Gaza, Hezbollah in the Lebanon and trains many in Syria.
Iran is very happy with the 800 plus dead in Israel. Does not care how many die in Gaza or with Hezbollah if that group foolishly chooses to come full blow, instead of the few things happening in the North.
Taliban has offered to come. Who knows what other terrorists they are hoping to become motivated to come and destroy Israel and kill all the Jews.
BTW, there is no Palestine. Gaza is not Palestine.
Abbas can call his part in Judea and Samaria as Palestine State all he likes, but he has always been intent in destroying Israel.
That is why UNWRA still exists. To LIE about Palestinians being forever refugees. Forever until Israel is gone. Because some in Islam have invented that all land conquered by Islam is forever Islamic land and Especially Jews are not allowed to be sovereign over "Islamic Land".
Mandate for Palestine was to rebuild the Nation of the Jewish People ON their Jewish Homeland. 78% was stolen by the British government in 1922 and given to Arab foreigners.
And the Muslims will not be happy until ALL of the Mandate is back in "Muslim hands".
I hope you learn something from the history above.
