I don't see why Israel would even think about allowing a state run by Hamas on their doorstep. They've already got iran to deal with and at the moment they would just be an Iranian proxy and a direct threat to their existence right next door. If there is ever to be any sort of resolution there would need to be the end of Hamas as a force in Palestine and a willingness from the the public to embrace a more moderate regime. Hopefully this would then lead to a deescalation and a more moderate leader in Israel. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

However, you cannot expect the Palestinian people to tolerate Israel after all that's happened, and nobody can expect Israel and it's people to trust Hamas and other Palestinian leaning extremists. Where I struggle with discussion with you on this issue is your tunnel vision on just the Palestinians needing to change. Change of Palestinian attitude and behaviour alone is pointless. That must happen alongside an alteration of Israeli attitudes, both government and settler. Without all of that there is no hope for peace. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I get what you're saying Hypo, but you're still putting all the onus on the Palestinians to change their ways first. Like it or not, Hamas exists as a response to Israel's illegal occupation of the West Bank and their oppression of the people of Gaza. If Israel are successful in completely eliminating Hamas with their current campaign (they won't be), then as long as the Netenyahu regime is still operating in the same way it is and engaging in its Zionist expansion, something else will just inevitably pop up in its place. What do you think would happen if the Palestinians did overthrow Hamas, renounce terrorism and declare an end to their struggle? do you honestly believe Netenyahu would reciprocate and end their illegal occupation of the West Bank? Of course not - it's ridiculous to even suggest that. So the whole situation is like a massive chicken and egg scenario. Neither side is going to deescalate until the other one does first, so it's just a perpetual stalemate. And frankly, suggesting that one side has more responsibility than the other to do so is just false. 5 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

And frankly, suggesting that one side has more responsibility than the other to do so is just false. I disagree. Asking the Israelis to put themselves at greater risk of a repeat from an attack just isn't going to happen. Personally I would like to see Hamas destroyed for a generationx the hostages returned, the citizens of Gaza going down the route of removing Hamas and renouncing them (no chance of that happening I've seen no evidence that a majority did support them and their actions) and then I'd like to see international pressure from all sides on Israel to come to an arrangement which protects their security but which is humanitarian to the people who live in Gaza. If that's refused or ignored then Israel are clearly culpable and will have no reason not to come to the table so at that point culpability will be obvious. Too much of the current situation is muddied by tragedies and mistakes that happen during every war in history but after the fighting ends, Israel weren't going to soften their stance on allowing a Hamas led Gaza next door to them unless there is a confidence that they have been dealt with to the extent that they don't pose an immediate threat to the lives of their citizens. Personally If an equivalent amount of innocent people had been killed in my country that's what I'd be expecting my government to do to ensure my safety - that's not a comment on Israeli tactics, I'm just saying I can absolutely understand the reasoning behind the end goal they are looking for. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The Palestinian want land of their own, but wherever they try the Israelis won't tolerate it. Prior to WW2 the Zionists wanted a Jewish homeland, and they got it, partly by displacing the local Arab population, but ever since they have continued to deny the Palestinians exactly what they themselves had been demanding and fighting for.

The West Bank wasn’t occupied by Isreal until the 60’s. It was occupied by Transjordan, who at the time denied Israel should even exist. In Western Europe a country could co exist with a neighbour shaped like Israel is, but it makes invasion pretty easy when there’s hostile nations all around you. In places the original 1948 border is 9 miles from the sea. It would be so easy for a hostile force to split the country in two. It could be argued that had isreals neighbours lived beside it in peace from 1948 (as most do now), then maybe they would give up the West Bank. But I realise this is crossing into tit for tat territory. There will never be a Palestinian state acceptable to The Palestinians without the West Bank & they’ll never be a Palestinian state with the West Bank acceptable to the Israelis. That’s the long and short of it. Maybe a few generations from now a Northern Irish type fudge will satisfy both sides, but you & me will be long gone by then. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
