How does this end? With Hamas holding firm and fighting back in Gaza, Israel faces only bad options

Hamas is still putting up a fight after seven brutal months of war with Israel, regrouping in some of the hardest-hit areas in northern Gaza and resuming rocket attacks into nearby Israeli communities.

Hopefully immediate withdrawal to stop the bleeding from being terrorized and then in response showing a lack of respect for life on the reactive scale of a bully, which is also laid bare.

So I guess my answer to the question is perhaps a nation state for Palestine and all the responsibilities and protections that come with it. Responsibility for attacks made as a nation and protection from an international community with a shared interest in peace.

Just today’s thought. I don’t know the answer but it better come fucking fast.

Palestine needs its own state, for sure. But unfortunately there is no way that will happen as long as Hamas has control of Gaza.

Gee, who knew violently displacing millions of people would free up potential Hamas recruits?

Israel must withdrawal and continue to have rockets fired into its innocent civilian communities for the next 5 years. It’s the only peaceful option or something

That's what most of the fediverse seems to believe.
