16. I don't disagree

I don't think there were good options given where things stood after the Hamas attack. The choices made long before that led to path dependent outcomes.

I think he may have been able to draw a harder line to demonstrate that it was Netanyahu making the choice, but I don't think that would have helped much considering Israel's government and certainly not the magic wand it seems many protestors wanted. Soft power is much less immediate.
