WATCHING Benjamin Netanyahu blunder into Rafah with no plan for “the day after” is like watching a Greek tragedy whose end is foreseen but can no longer be blocked.

Netanyahu’s push into the city at Gaza’s southern edge – with no strategy for an endgame – will force Israeli troops to reoccupy the entire strip. It will ensure Hamas’ political and military survival, and trap Israeli troops in an unending insurgency.
