If itâs like this now, just imagine what it would be like under NR.
He hasnât been in Gaza
A bit of context here which help explain Netanyahuâs ominous threats from around a week ago of an âextremely powerfulâ response to attacks by Hezbollah from Lebanon , and also possibly why the current ceasefire deal found its way onto the table.

The simplest version of the state of play is that Hamas leaders have, in general terms, publicly endorsed a deal for a ceasefire in exchange for the release of hostages, but they have not actually agreed to it. The Israeli government, meanwhile, has agreed to it â or at least the White House insists they have â but notably has not endorsed it publicly.

This part is telling
And if Israel has not been able to dismantle Hamas, a much smaller and less formidable adversary, after eight months of war and a nearly 17-year blockade of Gaza, what makes Israelis think that they can defeat Hezbollah in Lebanon, even putting aside the high price in soldier and civilian lives?

Probably the most used adjective to describe the entire conflict down the years has been âintractableâ , and sadly itâs still the most pertinent.

Itâs not in Hamasâs interest for the ceasefire to end , Ensuring that the hostilities continue is the way that they continue to be in relevance
Unless their leaders in Gaza can be persuaded to go into exile , which strikes me as highly unlikely.

They will go into exile (if they arenât killed). I wonder when the ICC warrants will be issued. That will severely limit their options. But Russia would gladly accept them.
Sinwari is holed up in one of those tunnels. Fat chance heâll leave. Scum.

Sinwar has kids (and if the rumors are true, grandkids too). He would definitely try to ship them somewhere safe.
Donât see Russia accepting them.
Russia has business interests with Israel. They arenât likely to do anything to disturb those interests.
Itâll have to be one of the Arab Oil States which takes them on.
Business arenât principled. People do business with all sorts of scums, if the profit is right.

Not only biz. There are a lot of Russian jews too. Roman for one.
Israel produces some shady reports and bam, UNRAW is chocked of life-saving funds. Some fascists keeps blocking supplies to a famine-stricken area in full sight and it take them months to take some symbolic gesture.
