This is actually pretty simple and people keep complicating it with History. The Hamas charter is that the entirety of Israel belongs to the Palestinian and should be an Islamic state. Their roots are in the Muslim Brotherhood (from al-qaeda, ISIS fame).
When the Oslo accord was signed and peace broke out, they started blowing up busses with suicide bombers (and coffee shops and many other things). They essentially destroyed the chance for peace, enabled the rise of Benjamin Netanyahu and moved Israel to the right. Netanyahu actually supported them and helped them financially due to a misconception that they will prevent the formation of a Palestinian state due to their extremism (yes, he really is THAT stupid).
Unfortunately, despite their leaders sitting on buckets of cash in Qatar etc. They made a very deliberate choice of burning down Israel.
They are the main reason we don't have a Palestinian state. They would literally pay with the blood of their own people due to a crazy religious interpretation. It's not about hate, it's not about revenge. They are a cancer on their own people. They are killing them and Israelis. They will burn everything down.
Unfortunately, like any cancer they're embedded deep and rooting that out is painful and almost impossible.
People don't understand this, they think that peace or ceasefire are always the best options. But there are these very rare occasions where evil must be eliminated for the sake of everyone involved.
- DoreenMichele 3y agoFrom what I gather, the current stated goal of Israel is the elimination of Hamas and the US supports that and even China seems to have dropped their opposition and announced "They have a right to defend themselves." So perhaps it will get resolved.
