Hasn’t the strike literally achieved their objectives? Everyone’s talking about them (instead of Ukraine), the Arab world is uniting behind them, and the West is progressively alienating their friends in the Global South.
If Israel had just let things lie, the status quo would have continued and Israel could have kept encroaching on the West Bank and slowly suffocating the Gaza Strip with their blockade. Instead, people are literally turning their backs on the US at the UN, there are massive protests around the world, and the Palestinian struggle is now front and center.
The only way Israel can pull a victory out of this complete and categorical defeat is by annexing the Gaza Strip.

This is all just noise, not meaningful change.
I’m not sure that victory is really the goal here. Frankly, I think the goal is merely to make war, and in turn make money by facilitating it. Always has been.
