Elder of Ziyon
I rotated and pieced together two set of maps from WarMapper.org, showing areas under IDF control in Gaza on December 2 and December 26. This shows graphically the IDF's progress in Gaza over those three weeks.
When you zoom in you can see that the IDF controls most of the urban part of northern Gaza.
Urban fighting is the hardest there is....without extensive tunnels. The hundreds of miles of tunnels makes this one of the most difficult battles any army has ever faced, especially when one tries to minimize the number of civilian deaths.
If Israel was an immoral as the media is reporting, this would be a much faster - and much deadlier - war.
