HALIFAX—Once again, the world is holding its breath over events unfolding in the Middle East. With the assassination of the political leader of Hamas in Tehran, Iran is vowing revenge against Israel. No one knows what that will look like. Another missile and drone attack on Israel itself like the one last April, an assault on Israeli shipping, or an indirect strike at Israeli assets outside the country. It could get very personal—civilians, diplomats, politicians, no one knows.
Prime Minister Netanyahu resisted all calls for a ceasefire, arguing that the IDF’s work would not be done until Hamas was eliminated as a military threat to Israel. As for the gruesome civilian death toll, Netanyahu blamed Hamas because they use civilians as human shields, operating out of hospitals and schools as cover. Some people agreed. But not everyone was buying that argument.
