A top Hamas political official told The Associated Press the Islamic militant group is willing to agree to a truce of five years or more with Israel and that it would lay down its weapons and convert into a political party if an independent Palestinian state is established along pre-1967 borders.
Great news, too bad israel has zero interest in a Palestinian state nor peace. Israel wants to ethnically cleanse all Palestinians and expand their Lebensraum That much has been fully proven over the last six months.
With Biden sending 26 Billion dollars to reimburse all the costs of this Genocide, without strings attached, it’s clear that the path forward for israel is to now fully commit to their Gaza Holocaust.
The “genocide” would halt immediately if Hamas returned the hostages and surrendered themselves. Hamas has zero interest in that, and the Palestinians have zero interest in that.
No israel has only said they will do a 6 week temporary pause and then continue the Genocide your claim is false.
This article is more than 2 months old - Netanyahu rejects Gaza ceasefire deal and says victory is ‘within reach’
Furthermore israel is currently also committing Genocide in the West Bank. Do you blame Hamas and hostages for that too?
I stand corrected. Makes sense if you’re close to wiping them out. Otherwise you go back to the previous situation.
Do you have evidence for a genocide in the West Bank? Thought not.
Yeah they’re real close. Just a few more years and they’ll get there.
Israel just committed Genocide in a hospital in north-Gaza which they claimed to have already conquered because Hamas popped up. So even the areas they claimed to have under control were not under control.
It must be difficult to stay in control with the tactics Hamas use, not caring at all about civilian lives, using human shields, suicide bombs, fighting from civilians buildings etc.
The IDF probably knows far more about that than we do
So you’re still defending IDF and israel now that all of the Hasbara got debunked.
So you’re still defending jihadists and their supporters
Oct 7th would’ve never happened if israel didn’t treat the Palestinians like human animals. If your excuse they hide terrorists whats your excuse for how they treat Palestinians in the west Bank where hamas isn’t a thing?
Hamas may not be based in the West Bank but other Islamic terrorists certainly are, and Hamas is certainly widely supported there.
Where do you live? How would you treat neighbouring countries that rocket attacked you constantly and wanted you wiped out in the name of their religion?
If anything Israel showed significant restraint prior to October
I dont endorse the extreme actions of hamas or any other group. But lets get something straight are you saying that all the oppression Palestinians face can be explained away by extremeist groups? Do you reject all the accounts of human rights organizations which have documented the plight of the Palestinians? And do you condemn the actions of israel?
It’s a tragedy whats happening to civilians in Palestine. Hamas needs to be destroyed and I hope Israel can minimise further collateral damage. (Though it must be exceptionally difficult with the tactics Hamas use)
But I hold the jihadist organisation Hamas (that still has widespread support) fully responsible for this tragedy, as I would hold the Nazis responsible for German civilian deaths.
So why extend the destruction to hamas who commits extremists actions but not israel?
Hamas butchered innocent civilians. They’re ruthless and evil. The IDF is butchering innocent civilians. They’re also ruthless and evil. There’s no good side to this.
That’s a false equivalence. Sure, there are extremist actions which you can point to. But to completely omit that it was the Palestinians people which were expelled from their land and massacred is disingenuous.
You say this as if the Jews weren’t expelled from their home and massacred.
The Palestinians pushed the Jews out before too. People have been fighting over the land for almost as long as people have been growing crops.
The Palestinians are the natives. Most have cannanite DNA. Palestinians aren’t just the Arabs/muslims but also include jews and Christians that have lived for as long. Jews who came from EU have no claim to the land
