“Israeli” analyst: “Israelis” live under illusion of victory since Cast Lead
Local Editor, 30-12-2009
"Israeli" analyst Lki Elner says "Israelis" live under illusion of victory since Cast Lead but operation's long-term goals not acheived.
In a article published in Yedioth Ahronoth , Elner adds that "exactly like a year ago - before the last operation - the blockade on Gaza persists without showing any results".
The article continues that "Exacerbation in the sense that the rest of Israelis live under the illusion of victory; an illusion "sold" to them by Israel's leaders, and which put the wind back in Ehud Barak's sails."
"One year after the operation concluded, it is time to ask what, in fact, were its goals? Was it meant to change the balance of threat toward Hamas? As far as I understand it, we continue to dupe ourselves. "
"Let us begin with the blockade on Gaza. Israel announced and seemingly continues to announce that the blockade will continue until Gilad Shalit is released. Pardon me? I thought he was slated to be released not for the price of removing the blockade. The operation did not promote his release."

"Smuggling of arms into Gaza is business as usual. Recent reports about the "testing" of a missile with the ability to hit Central Israel did not raise a ruckus at home. Hamas' government continues to manage the lives of half a million Gazan residence, and there is no sign of disapproval on the horizon."
Elner stresses that the conclusions are quite clear and the question of whether the missile threat on the south of the country has been removed remains unanswered.
The article concludes that the only strategy here is communicative - nothing but a useless interchange of words by our non-determined leaders; a spin story in order to calm down the public.
