Post-October 7 strategy
Netanyahu unleashed full military force against the Iranian octopus.
“he would unleash the power of the Israel Defence Forces against the Iranian octopus with maximum ferocity”
Global reactions

“less than a week after the Hamas invasion, then-New York State assemblyman Zohran Mamdani accused Israel of being on the brink of genocide”
Hamas casualties
