- Personal Journals
After one hundred days of fighting in Israel and Gaza, who is winning? Iran. Hamas, Gaza’s ruling political party and its military wing inflicted a stinging blow to Israel when it launched its October 7th attack killing twelve hundred mostly Israelis and taking hostage over two hundred others, about half of whom have now been released. Although a propaganda victory, this attack was not militarily significant. It has, however, become significant as a triggering event.
