Abhijit Iyer Mitra's brilliant analysis of the Israel-Hamas war

[-=virus=-]

That's because Saudis and gulf arabs are lap dogs of Americans.

They're not stupid enough to want jump in now.. what for, anyway ? America can pull many a non-military lever to keep everyone out, they have enough leverage.

Iran could maybe seriously think of doing so, but that would be counter-productive as well.

Even the US has failed in reigning in the IDF. This will end when Israel decides enough is enough.

Hamas need to unconditionally release any hostages still alive or their people will continue to suffer.

No because they are rich and noone wants to fight
Pakistano elite are no different

Hamas is nothing to loose situation
Israel may over play it's hand as it has always done

Forget about that.
Hamas,iran and Hezbollah successfully dragged Israel into a long war. Yes it's going to be a long one as Nethanyau said. Hamas has indirectly supported through iran by China and Russia. So they won't be short on funds.
Gaza tunnel network is bigger than what Vietnam had. We all know how it ended for the US. Israelis soldiers are started to die on ground by hamas recently. They have an air superiority but this tunnel warfare will be a nightmare for them. Just wait and watch.
