Why should we expect, or even hope, for anything else?

Their goal is to wipe out all Jews. As long as they have that goal peace is impossible.

What does the HAMAS Charter say? Does it allow peace with Israel? Or is it committed to Israel’s destruction?

Ethnic relocation is always an option.?.? Perhaps Iran will take Gazans since all the Christians have left (except George Stephanopolis’ ugly sister)

this Gaza situation makes me wonder what would have happened in WWII if we were committed to negotiating with Germany and Japan for a peaceful ceasefire and eventual settlement of our differences.

Do not pretend to negotiate with rabid dogs.

This is why DJTrump and Israel are being reviled in the DNC and MSM as at odds. DJT will not come out and say that the hamas and their supporters are trash people. He is trying to walk softly, and that does not work with trash.

The prospects for peace in Gaza become darker all the time

That should be simple.   Get rid of the Palestinians.

FTA: Hamas perpetrated the October 7, 2023, attack. Although Hamas likes to blame its actions on Israel’s occupation of Gaza, Israel turned Gaza over to the Palestinians nearly 20 years ago.

This ⬆️ statement is disingenuous. In 2005, Israel closed its settlements and moved its citizens out of the Gaza Strip. Israel did not relinquish control. ---- Personally, I do not care if you agree with and support Israel's actions in Gaza, or not. But, please, don't promote what simply is not true; doing so helps nothing.

Israel Controls:

° The IDF occupies wide perimeter and interior sectors, enforcing strict access bans. ° Israel has complete operational oversight of air and maritime movement. ° Israel has control over commercial and pedestrian entry gates --- regulating the flow of all incoming and outgoing goods, fuel, and people, (preventing entrance into and exit out of Gaza, controlling medical supplies, food, construction materials,) ° Israel controls all utilities, including sanitation (safe waste removal, sewage treatment, and trash collection), clean drinking water and electricity. (**Control" includes denial and withholding) ° Israel maintains a mandatory registry with data for legal identification, telephone distribution and movement tracking.

Forget “peace” with terrorist murder gengsters. That’s delusional. Hamas is being destroyed. Same for Hezballah and plo. Hoping same for the murderous thugs in Iran soon— forget all the talk and threats and minimalist hrlp (at best) from Arabs and Europe. Worthless as Allies. Some are backstabbing enemies of America anyway . Just let our great USA and USN the job already! Leave an effective and credible monitoring squad, also continue all
intelligence (space force, electronics, findncial, etc) and bring the rest of our guys home. 🏠 too much talk. Loose lips sink ships. Too
Much delaying. wtf for?! It’s only enabling the enemy to recover, rearm, redeploy, and renew wider attacks. Snatching defeat from the very jaws of victory.
