Ok, so Hamas has offered a deal. They are ready to release the remaining hostages. They are also ready to disarm.
For this they want to be recognized as a state.
First of all, well done Hamas, that is really positive. I 100 % recognize the intention to get to a compromise.
Secondly, will be ok with Israel. Absolutely not, the Israeli public will be horrified by the offer, and rightly so. How can we make sure, that we do not have a 7 October again?
So, in order for this to really work, we have to have some kind of serious security guarantee IF Gaza and the West Bank will have independence.
Who is going to make those guarantees, the Arab states allied with the US or NATO. This is a thing we need to figure out.
So it is a harsh compromise, Israel will loose its bid for absolute control of Gaza and the West Bank, BUT the hostages will come home.
It is actually a realistic offer, but it will be VERY difficult for the Israeli public to accept it, and that is really the issue here.
We will have to accept it, if we want the hostages home now.
G-d bless the reconciliation that needs to be done after the deal has been brokered.
