Political forces are beginning to dominate this struggle.  We have a narrow window of time in which to exact revenge and secure the western border of Israel.  You are to attack the Egyptians wherever you find them.  The Elu Gap is vital.  At a minimum,  seal it from any Egyptian reinforcements.  Given your demonstrated skill and aggressiveness,  you are ordered to penetrate the gap and exploit the southwestern roadway. This battle could determine the outcome of the war.  I wish you success!
