Prime Minister Netanyahu is pursuing a number of targets all of sudden, I don’t doubt that he cares concerning the safety of Israel, however he appears to be guided, on many days, by his personal political survival.
We clearly thought we had the power to acquire a ceasefire with Hamas. Hamas stood in the way in which of that settlement, however Prime Minister Netanyahu additionally appeared to imagine that it could damage his political pursuits to enter into that ceasefire and prisoner alternate.

I actually fear that Prime Minister Netanyahu is watching the American election as he makes selections about his army campaigns within the north and in Gaza.
