"The lesson that it was nowhere near enough."

Eh, Jim? I can only take this to mean that Israel should now present Hamas with some more of its territory to fire some more rockets from? If that isn't what it means, then what is?

In fact, Jim, would you be pleased if Israel were after all to be wiped off the map? You might reply that IYO it should never have existed in the first place [is that your opinion, in fact? Honest, now?*]. But one can only start from here, as the well known yokel asked the way couldn't quite grasp. And there it is, and is not voluntarily about to go away.

So, seriously -- what would you?

Mmmmm?
