The recent recognitions of a Palestinian state and the October 10 ceasefire have been followed by a flurry of calls to “deradicalize” Palestinian society. The New York Times editorial board went so far as to compare this deradicalization project to the denazification of Germany after the Second World War. These calls have the situation backwards to the point of farce.
Hamas doesn’t accept the two state solution. They are open to maybe discussing potentially reaching a consensus about the 1967 borders.
If you want to underscore Israeli unreasonableness, you’ve got to point to the PA/Fatah. The PA/Fatah has accepted the two state solution and has stopped violent resistance against Israel. They are in every way an interlocutor for peace. And in return they are being constantly undermined and ratfucked by Israel. Their territory is being annexed, its authority ridiculed, ita legitimacy destroyed.
So PA has respected the term of the Oslo accords and Israel didn’t and start building more settlements, arming and protecting the settlers yet PA still accept to work for Israel security while west banker get terrorized and attacked by them . Thank you for proving my point that PA are collaborators and Israel do not want peace regardless if Hamas is destroyed or not
You’re exaggerating, but also sure, why do they need to go any further? Compromising beforehand is never a good idea, see: PA. Speaking of which, PA isn’t a tragic victim; they’re an active collaborator. The only thing they do is keep Palestinians under an oppressive dictatorship and fight what little Palestinian resistance exists in the West Bank. That’s why they have no legitimacy; their current program is one of submission, not “peace.”
