Two more hostages released today, Israel holds off invasion to let hostage releases continue. Hamas benefits as Israelis stew in the sun, at the peak of readiness, consuming resources, while theywait for the order

Two releases three days ago. So, one hostage per 2.5 days, 222 hostages = 88 days. Call it three months, that Hamas can use to win sympathy and resupply. Should Israel invade even while hostages are being held and slowly released?

Should the Hamas drip drip hostage strategy be allowed to delay Israeli ground action? Or better, How does Hamas not lose regardless of whether Israel waits or not.

Exactly right. Time is against Israel's side; they should be going in now.
