      The saying, "Lite is just one damn thing after another," is a gross understatement. The damn things overlap.

                          To say that “continued military operations” are a red line is basically giving them an ultimatum to cease hostilities.

                            As terrorist motivations go, a strong Israeli reaction, and the fallout from it, is the most plausible one.

                            Education is extremely important.

                              In that sense, Iran already won.

                                That’s how I read it as well. I understand also that in the last 12 hours Israeli jets air struck Aleppo airport in Syria. A good thing that the 2nd USN Carrier Group is en route.
                                This is shaping up to be a multiple party hot one.

                                        True, by postponing 36 hours they’ll avoid a nasty Russian winter in Gaza City.

                                        Actually I imagine they’re postponing for humanitarian reasons (it’s hard to evacuate 1MM people in a day along two roads) but don’t want to say as much.
