Israel threatens new level of force if Hamas breaks ceasefire

 NY Post:

Israel will unleash “a whole new level of force” if Hamas terrorists break their cease-fire agreement with new rocket attacks from the Gaza Strip, Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu warned Friday.

Netanyahu said the recent round of fighting “changed the equation not only as regards to the operation but also as regards the future,” according to the Times of Israel.

“If Hamas thinks we will tolerate a drizzle of rockets, it is mistaken,” he said at a news conference with military leaders in Tel Aviv.

“We will respond with a whole new level of force to every instance of aggression against the Gaza-envelope communities or anywhere else in Israel.”

Netanyahu also claimed that Israel did “daring and innovative things” during its 11-day military campaign, dubbed Operation Guardian of the Walls, the Jerusalem Post reported.

“The public doesn’t know everything, Hamas doesn’t know everything, but all our achievements will be revealed over time,” he said.
...

“Hamas before this operation is not like Hamas the day after,” Shin Bet Director Nadav Argaman added.

Defense Minister Benny Gantz also blamed Hamas for Israel’s devastating airstrikes on Gaza, which killed at least 232 people, wounded more than 1,900 and reduced thousands of homes and critical infrastructure to rubble.

Gantz said Hamas “took the residents of Gaza hostage with poverty and a lack of hope.”

The Iranian, Hamas strategy of trying to overwhelm Israel's Iron Dome defense system did not work.  Iran may use Hezballah for its next attack on Israeli citizens.

Should Republicans go ahead and add Supreme Court Justices to head off Democrats

Washington Post: Some Democrats eye adding more justices to the Supreme Court to change its ideological bent The once-remote idea has gained the attention of liberals angered by the GOP push to remake the federal courts. Probably the easy way to defeat this court-packing scheme is for Trump to propose doing the same thing now.  It would lead to Democrat denunciations and claims that it would be wrong, thereby blowing up any attempt by them in the unfortunate event of Democrats winning a presidential election.

Is the F-35 obsolete?

Headline USA: Pentagon Fires Back after Musk Calls Its Most Expensive Project ‘Obsolete’ 'Yeah, as I'm sure you can appreciate, Mr. Musk is, currently, a private citizen, I'm not going to make any comments about what a private citizen may have to say about the F-35....'   ... ... Drones appear to be replacing jets for many operations.  The Russia-Ukraine war is an example of that.  Drones are often hard to detect and can be used for intelligence operations as well as for attacking enemy targets.  It would not surprise me to see drones engaging other drones in combat.  They also cost much less than manned fighters.
