The joint response should be a cease fire.
As much as most people in the Middle East would like that, I don’t think it’s likely to happen. Netanyahu needs this to keep going to stay out of jail and realistically, letting Hamas and Hezbollah reconstitute themselves just gives them time to execute more terrorist attacks, which Israelis have every right to be against.
I don’t see this war getting cleaned up neatly anytime soon. The only way I can see it happening is if the U.S. steps in to militarily enforce a two-state solution with a DMZ, which they never will (and for good reason; that would be its own clusterfuck).
If Israel’s treatment of its neighbors and its own non-Jewish citizens was fair and just then they wouldn’t need to worry about these kinds of attacks.
Only people who don’t know their history think that. Arabs in that region have been calling for the destruction of Israel since its inception.
Because Israel has been an Apartheid state since its inception. Do you know what the Nakba is?
They’ve been calling for its destruction because of the unfair and unjust treatment Israel has inflicted on the Arab population.
They don’t. If they’d just call for an equal and just peace none of this would happen.
Or stop giving Israel weapons. That’d solve the qhole thing.
That’s ridiculously naive. Hamas has been attacking Israel for a very long time and they’re not going to stop simply because Israel agrees to a ceasefire.
No, it wouldn’t, because Hamas would just re-arm and commit another Oct. 7th at an opportune point in the future.
Not longer than Israel has been occupying Gaza. Don’t get your cause and effect mixed up.
They literally did. Twice. Israel then proceeded to not uphold their end of the deal.
There is no place for Oct 7th (or any other acts of resistance) in a fair and just peace. Hamas didn’t attack for the lols.
Hamas is a terrorist group that has made it very clear its objective is the destruction of Israel, stop pretending they’re good guys who will stop once Israel stops.
s/Israel/Gaza/ and s/Hamas/Israel/
They literally did before. Twice. I’m not pretending anything.
