The likes of Hamas...Hezbollah and countries like Iran who sponsors both don't want peace...they don't want their own homeland...they want the Jewish people cast out of their biblical homeland and destroyed as a race.
After 58 years of Israel confining the Palestinians in an open air prison, I see you're still going with the "existential threat" reason.
58 years of war with goat herders is not a threat, it's a political choice. Just ask Mr. Security, whose entire 35+ years political career is still dependent upon it.
But, you appear to be unaware of the games Netanyahu has been playing with Hamas and the lives of both Palestinians and Israelis. Please, keep reading:
When a Gazan unity government was finally formed in June 2007, Hamas broke the deal, started murdering Fatah members, and, in the end, took total control of the Gaza Strip. Those who weren’t killed fled to the West Bank, and the territories have remained split ever since.
Netanyahu saw the advantage of having Hamas in power: -— to keep Gaza and the West Bank from politically joining and forming a separate state.
To keep this ⬆️ dream alive, Bibi damn near treated Hamas like an ally, most notably: —
For years, Netanyahu authorized mega money transfers to Hamas from Qatar, the last transfer was in Sep 2023,
Netanyahu knew for certain about the tunnels since the war in 2014, but allowed them to be built and expanded for nine more years. They now house Israeli hostages.
The Netanyahu government ignored the clarion warning of an attack on Israel outlined in chilling details in the “Jericho Wall Document”, a document compiled by Israel’s own security agencies. Netanyahu chose instead to dedicate focus and resources to expanding settlements in the West Bank.
Netanyahu is Israel's existential threat.
From the River to the Sea. And its really pathetic that there are people on this forum that call themselves conservatives that support that.
There are two rallying cries for "the river to the sea" :
For the Israelis: The Likud Charter included "from the river to the sea, will be Israeli sovereignty".
For the Palestinians: the PLO Charter included " from the river to the sea, Palestine will be free"
Just thought you should know.
