As Gaza War Enters 100th Day, Netanyahu Vows to Keep Fighting

(New York Times) Isabel Kershner - Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu of Israel marked 100 days of war against Hamas in Gaza, telling a news conference on Saturday night, "We are continuing the war until the end - until total victory, until we achieve all of our goals: eliminating Hamas, returning all of our hostages, and ensuring that Gaza will never again constitute a threat to Israel. Nobody will stop us - not The Hague, not the axis of evil, and not anybody else." Netanyahu said Palestinians displaced from northern Gaza would not be able to return home anytime soon because it would not be safe for them, as IDF forces continue to clash with Hamas fighters there. Col. (res.) Gabi Siboni, a fellow at the Jerusalem Institute for Strategy and Security, said Israeli troops are still working to destroy Hamas' underground tunnels, and blowing up the tunnels risked the collapse of buildings along the route. Hamas fighters could also try to blend in with the returning civilian population, and "then we are back to square one."
