No. Either way, the Israeli military retreat from Gaza reflects the heavy losses suffered by Israel’s top fighters at the hands of stiff and growing Palestinian Resistance.

Quote from the article, in case you thought this was actual news.

In 2014, the Golani suffered heavy losses in Shejaiya neighborhood. The current battle for Shejaiya was meant as sending a strong message that the Golani has managed to overcome the Shejaiya hurdle.

The outcome, however, was the exact opposite, as the Golani has lost dozens of its top fighters and officers forcing the retreat announced on Thursday.

Cool. Now pull out of the rest of Gaza. And the West Bank. And Jerusalem. And everywhere they shouldn’t be.

I’m not sure you’re getting the implication here. I’d say there’s a great possibility they’re pulling their forces out so they don’t have to worry about friendly fire.
