            We had a particularly memorable one with my infant son, who was expecting a single shot, and then they got him in both legs simultaneously. The howls of outrage were really quite something.

            I was only joking

              We had that happen one time when she was a baby and really sick. It was traumatic for all.

                  The whole world is trying to stop IDF from going after the very people who brought this misery to Gaza. In my view, if you want to halt the ground invasion, the Gazans need to hand over all Hamas leadership and every other soldier they can find.

                          I was thinking it was more motivated by domestic politics. There must be a faction that is worried that, by delaying so much, he's getting 'soft' and beginning to worry about outside voices.

                            WSJ is saying that the delay is at the White House's request - so that the US can position assets to protect troops elsewhere.

                                That's as of today. A couple days ago it was 'White House requests delay for negotiations over hostages and supplies'. Before that there was delay but no stated reason. Ever since 10/10 or so various reports said it was 'imminent'.

                                Obviously I have no idea what's going on, what's realistic and not, etc. But neither does the average Israeli citizen, Hence my thought that there must be some wondering if he's getting soft.

                                  It's the carrier groups, I think. One is tasked with making sure the Iranians are good lads. The other is going to keep an eye on Hezbollah. That's around 130 planes total on the carriers and who knows how many missiles on the other ships

                                        Sadly, expendable. Time to go wreck Hamas. And I would do it while putting as few IDF at risk as possible.
