Well TBH there is not much left of Gaza anyway. The exit strategy IMO was that the Palestinians seek refuge somewhere else.

If they are going to stay as part of a “peace” deal, how to you rebuild it ? Gaza has a similar land size to Canberra. Canberra has a population of 477,000 whereas Gaza has 2.7m. Who is going to pay for it ? Will it be n autonomous state ?

If you think that pre-Gaza incursion the Palestinians were a bunch of pissed off people, imagine the generations that follow. A bunch of terrorists killed 1400 Israelis and in retaliation 50,000 Palestinians were killed (est 15,000 children) and a high density city the size of Canberra was scorched. It wasn’t 99.99999999999% of the people’s fault.
What did I say ?

Wes Moore....
Sounds like a decent candidate.

However since the US seems to appear unready for a woman President, they may not be ready for another black President... so to maximise potential success I suspect the Dems will (sadly) have to go back to the white male options, in order to re-capture the key demographics that they didn't in 2024 or 2016.

Maybe Moore can be the VP candidate...

If you want to dive into the depths of Fatah, Onslow Accords and the meddling's of Israel then fine.

Like everything middle east, it is not as simple as saying that Hamas abolished democracy. They did a Rambuka. A Coups d'etat, because Fatah where not looking after the Palestinian's best interests.
Hamas has turned them into human shields.

You are parroting IDF propaganda methinks. There is no doubt some kernel of truth to what you say in where they hide their shit. However if you are in turn defending the use of force as necessary and the deaths as being unfortunate collateral to the extinguishing of Hamas then stop the bus right here, Shlomo.

Sounds like you are parroting Hamas propaganda. They can give back the hostages any time they like.

It's a good thing the IDF weren't in charge of the Lindt Cafe Martin Place siege as hostage negotiators. They would have killed everyone in Darling Harbour and Circular Quay and kept killing them until Man Monis handed the hostages over. Thinking that Monis actually gave a f**k, assuming that terrorists have a conscience, is a flaw in their or your chess game.

A fair analogy if the people of Darling Harbour and Circular Quay were protecting and enabling him
