This is not a "war", it is a pogrom in a ghetto, the Gaza ghetto is like the Warsaw ghetto.

The other thing that - I think I recall - is that the Jewish uprising in the Warsaw ghetto did not have direct outside assistance. They did inflict severe well deserved casualties against the Nazis with some smuggled arms - but in general there was a great deal of smuggling to survive in those 1.3 square miles with a population of more 400K people.

Now the funny thing is - if I recall it correctly - The Nazis, when they showed up weren't even there to send the remaining 70K/80K to Treblinka. Down from the 400K due to being sent to death camps, starvation, illness, etc. etc. They were going to be forced out and into labor camps. At the end though - after weeks and weeks of resistance - some did end up going there. Yet others survived even the Polish uprising against the Nazis that the Russians made no effort to intervene in. That uprising was based upon the belief by the citizens of Warsaw that with the Russians on the horizon - they would intervene on their behalf.
