Netanyahu has been an abject failure throughout this mess. The lapses in security happened on his watch. He was too busy trying to take over the court system to prioritize readiness and intelligence.
He’s also the one ultimately responsible for the way the IDF is conducting the war. Both Hamas and Netanyahu have massive amounts of blood on their hands.
It will be very telling if he survives in power after this is all over.
How could Hamas do this?
Maybe because Bibi kept tossing money and resources at them?
This source backs up your claim with his alleged words.
They came into power at the same time around 17 years ago and only know how to kill innocent people for their wars and with the support of us Americans in the name of securing the oil rich middle east for rich politicians/ lobbyists. Netanyahu actually sent Hamas literal bags of money.
I would even add that in the past 12 years, Netanyahu hasn’t done anything to solve the situation in the West bank apart from creating many settlements out of which some are even illegal.
That’s his plan, he wanted to annex West Bank.
Why would he? Instability in the West Bank is an asset to him. As long as Hamas exists, the Israelis have an excuse not to negotiate with Palestinians.
Wouldn’t it be easier to negotiate rather than have a war? Needless to say, there were several offers by Israel and none of them were accepted 🤷♀️🤷
I’d assume the only solution for the Palestinians (at least most of them) is for Israel to cease to exist completely. That’s impossible considering how strong Israel is militarily.
As long as those guys exist, Israel will continue to see them as a threat, and therefore try to eradicate them.
This is why the two sides refuse any kinds of negotiations, which leads to increasing amounts of sadness.
Israel cannot cease to exist because that would be even worse than Holocaust most of 12 million Jews living there would be killed.
I would argue that the 2 sides can negotiate but the extreme right wing supporters will be always present. Just like during Oslo accords, when an agreement was about to be made, an idiot came and killed Rabin…
That’s actually an ever better point.
Benjamin “I funded Hamas” Netanyahu
That creates a very easy way to end the “war” then
