Unless Hamas is completely neutralized, there can be no peace. And Israelis calling for negotiations fail to understand that if Hamas is not neutralized, 200 more hostages will be taken in a few more years.
Hezbollah has to go too.
The fact that these latest hostages were alive a few days ago (and let’s not mince words, Hamas killed them), it means that IDF is tightening the noose, and the terrorists cannot afford to keep them alive. The hostages are the best defense that Hamas has had up til now, but at this point they’re down to eating their seed corn.
Has nothing to do with Biden and Harris. As long as Netanyahu is in power, there will be no end to the illegal settlements, the encroachment into Gaza. There will be no ceasefire; therefore, no incentive for the hostages to be released. I feel badly for their families, but there won’t be any hostages alive by the time this is over. Netanyahu is obsessed with maintaining his hold on power; a ceasefire isn’t part of that equation.
Would you like some links to enhance your understanding? Are you saying Israeli settlers weren’t putting illegal settlements in Gaza? Are you saying Netanyahu’s coalition isn’t built with far right parties who have no interest in a ceasefire?
If there’s no chance of a deal, Hamas has no incentive to release the hostages, sad as it is.
Israel had no settlements in Gaza. They pulled out of it years ago. Hamas are rabid animals who need to be put down. Israel has already agreed to a ceasefire at least twice, Hamas refused. Because they have lots of useful idiots who will suck up their propaganda due to their hidden hatred of Jews.
Completely false. They’ve been putting settlements in for many years, to the point that the United Nations got involved. UN resolution 2334 was the latest example.
I firmly believe there can be no negotiation with Hamas. No ceasefire. The only solution is the unequivocal neutralization of Hamas. Anything less than that will just lead to another 200 hostages getting taken in another few years. I fully agree with Netanyahu.
“Negotiating” with Hamas reinforces incentive for hostage-taking.
That’s a seriously ■■■■■■ up perspective. Why would anyone in their right mind make a deal with Hamas? They shouldn’t have taken and killed hostages in the first place.
I think you’re confusing the West Bank from Gaza. Yes they built settlements on their side of the border, which they had every right to do based on the Oslo Accords.
Also negotiating with Hamas is a waste of time. Hamas has already made their position clear; restoration of 1948 Palestine and for it be ethnically cleansed of Jews. You can’t negotiate with that.
Yet ‘half of the country’s voting block backs Kamel and her joker VP choice’.
It just shows how many among us have no functioning brain.
AND how many in the Media have no character.
With the track records of Camel and the jack ass they should poll in single digits. Would cover their friends and relatives only.
The settlements in the West Bank and the invasion (not encroachment … there has been no encroachment since 2005) of Gaza are two entirely different issues. Hamas attacked Israel, killed over 1000 people … most of them civilians … and kidnapped hundreds of people (again, mostly civilians) and continued indiscriminately firing rockets into Israeli towns after they fled back to Gaza. Israel responded to that blatant act of war by appropriately invading Gaza and killing Hamas militants. Not exterminating Hamas and negotiating to trade peace for hostages would not end the war that Hamas has sworn to continue until Israel has been destroyed. It is seriously naive to believe that Netanyahu could bring lasting peace with Hamas by bowing to their demands.
This latest incident that resulted in the execution murder of six hostages demonstrates perfectly where Hamas stands. They are rabid animals who cannot be allowed to exist if peace is to ever come to the region.
America’s wage-earning citizens have been made into taxed slaves by todays Democrat Leadership to pay for the economic and social needs of millions upon millions of foreign nationals who have invaded the United States’ border.
