All right, everybody. Last episode, we talked a little bit about what was going on between Israel and Hamas, and specifically we focused on kind of the left-wing academic response to it within the United States in Europe and talking about why is it that a bunch of academics that generally talk about things like tolerance and peace and understanding and diversity of thought would be so fervently adamant

about Hamas being justified in what they were doing. And then we talked about some of the

battle that was going on between liberals and leftists within the West on this particular topic.

What we're going to get into today is a little bit more of, I don't want to say totally dispassionate because I think everyone

knows kind of where we stand on this, but just some analysis on what does this mean for Israel

as far as their military operations? What are they going to do within Gaza? What does it mean for

the various, you know, peace negotiations that have been taking place within the Middle East?

What does it mean for Iran?

What does it mean for the United States that we're sending a carrier group over there?

Because there's a lot of questions about does this kick off and become yet another war?

Some people say this is a distraction. Some people say the United States should not be involved at all.

What we're going to talk about today, if you stick with us, is we're going to run through kind of the basics of what the IDF is currently doing, what they're most likely to do and what it actually means to conduct this sort of warfare in the Gaza Strip.

What we think other countries in the region, Egypt, Saudi Arabia, Syria, Iran are probably going to do or what they could do.

And what do we think the outcome is going to be?

What is it like if Israel has to fight this almost entirely by themselves?

What is it like if other countries get drawn into this conflict?

And what do we think is the most probable outcome?

We will be discussing all of that on today's episode of making the argument powered by Good Ranchers.
