    “We finally caught him, now once all those pesky civilians are starved, we can start to heal.”

    Beginning of the end? jfc

      Not really likely. With all these kids and the younger generation terrorised/traumatized by Israel, hopes for a lasting peace is dim. Imagine your home and loved ones being torn into pieces right in front of your eyes by Israel all because of a terrorist attack that you played no part in. Now multiply this by tens of thousands…They will go on to be members or leaders of whatever terrorist/resistance organization follows hamas. It’s an endless cycle where only people on the very top take advantage off.

      Not while Netanyahu remains in power, he has no incentive to end this.

      Hamas was created as a reaction to Israel oppressing Palestinians.

      The resistance will continue until the oppressors stop oppressing them.

      Sinwar was not a charismatic guy who brainwashed everyone into attacking Israel. Israel oppressed Palestinians into violent resistance.

      I’m not sure the Palestinians will view being ethnically cleansed slightly less vigorously as a brighter future.

        Who said anything about doing it slightly less? I haven’t heard that from the Israelis.

        He was the mastermind behind the Oct. 7th attack. The world is a better place without him.

          Nobody’s arguing that. His death being good and the continued eradication of the Palestinian people by the IDF and Israeli state can coexist.

          To be perfectly clear, since this is the internet and people can’t seem to have two concepts in their minds at once: The genocide of the Palestinian people needs to stop.

        I am probably out of the loop but how does one go about Identifying a Palestinian without shooting everyone?

          Point your Tavor at them. If they run, they’re Hamas. If they don’t, they’re well-disciplined Hamas.

            Well I guess I am a Palestinian because if someone pointed a gun at me I would run.

          I think IDF also uses option B - explosives. Also very effective, since the only ones who get harmed by IDF weapons are Hamas, so everyone killed/harmed in the blast zone can safely be declared Hamas.

      Probably not the tens of thousands of murdered Palestinians. Homeless, without any future.

      Edit: I apologize for my cynicism, but I struggle to be hopeful about the prospects of Israel making peace with its surroundings nations and occupied territories.
