Vance, " ... destroy Hamas and let Israel finish the job ..." Esta política no ha funcionado en 75 años. Todos los daños colaterales no hacen más que impulsar a la gente a ponerse del lado de Hamás. Y una guerra más amplia perjudica a Israel a largo plazo. This policy hasn't worked in 75 years. All the collateral damage just drives people to side with Hamas. And a wider war hurts Israel in the long run.
