    Someone please educate me here… Are shows of force like this really effective? Everyone knows that the US isn’t going to participate in this thing directly, right?

      It’s a show of force to dissuade anyone like Iran (active in Syria right now) from getting any silly ideas. Beyond that I don’t think the US will step foot there, nor does Israel need their help to crush the Hamas terrorists.
