Hamas is squirming to retain some body of power. The release if all the hostages seems to be the catalyst for moving forward in talks. Hamas if not totally removed will rise again to create war.

Yes this what I fear. I do not want to be pessimistic, but if Hamas is not totally destroyed there can be no lasting peace. Even if they are destroyed who knows what other hateful group could emerge.

I do not recall the allied making a deal in 1945 with Germany, letting a big swath of Nazis get off the hook and possibly have a hand in ruling post war Germany.

Let’s hope that Trump in his hasty eagerness to make a “deal” will be serious about Hamas having absolute no further role in the future of Gaza. Better would have been ordering Hamas to unconditionally surrender. Bartering with them will result in another Israel/ Gaza/ Westbank conflict in a few years. Negotiating with Hamas will elevate their standing in Gaza/Westbank, producing an image of Hamas being able dictating terms to the president of the USA.

That is a lie why would you say such a thing they have absolutely not accepted it.

They're not so stupid to not understand if they give up their weapons they're all dead faster.

Only a f****** moron would want that.

Why would they even waste their time speaking to Donald Trump or any of his people.

How many times now have they murdered the negotiators before the meetings arranged by Donald Trump. When they're right f****** mine would waste their time.

Uuhhm. I think you're missing a lot of information about this war. Like, Hamas being the bad guys. So, if they give up their guns, the fighting might actually end. Hamas' mission is to kill every last Isrealian...not Isreal's mission.

I think you're missing a lot the war started 80 years ago it didn't start on October 7th when Israel shut off the electric fences Otto cannons and called away all of the military guards and security literally minutes before this attack.

Look, this history of blood shed is nearly impossible to keep track of. But one i do know is that Palestine has been given sooo many opportunities to have peace and prosper. Even to the point of given more land, with proper infrastructure to develop themselves and do well. What did they do on those occasions? Burned it all down and continued their war cries. Enough is enough. If you have the US against you, you should know your place and take what you can get and move on. Be come a better nation. Not a nation of war and hate.

The only ones in Germany I hear complaining about Israel are the ones complaining about the money from the German government and the weapons the German people pay for that go to Israel kind of the same as Britain the United States and all the rest of us.

Time we shed these f****** leeches.

Good discussion here with Tucker and Jeffrey Sachs.

Many could use a history lesson on the creation of Israel and why at the time, Rabbis thought creating a state was a bad idea. What they predicted has come true.

Further as far as creating a Palestinian state ... countries representing 95% of the world population support this. It is the Israeli controlled USA that disagrees.

Too, in the first segment, Tucker discusses the hold of Israel over the US.

Perhaps you should listen to what Tucker and Sachs have to say.

This whole antisemitie BS that you and others spew out for anyone critical of the STATE of Israel or BIBI is simply part of the West propaganda machine.

And Sachs himself is Jewish. He offers a good critique of this mess.
