Israel - A Rant

I’ve noticed a worrying increase in the amount of news reports that are starting to use the word “famine” in respect of Gaza. 
 

Worrying for what appears to be happening to those in Gaza. And, disappointing to see the reports using that term rather than accurately describing what is happening - intentional starvation.

The US, Egypt and Qatar are pushing Israel and Hamas to accept a comprehensive plan that would end the war, see the release of hostages held in Gaza, and ultimately lead to full normalization for Israel with its neighbors and talks for the establishment of a Palestinian state, The Wall Street Journal reported on Sunday.

 

Egyptian officials told WSJ that there would then be talks about a permanent ceasefire, normalization between Israel and Saudi Arabia in addition to other Arab countries, and a new process leading to a Palestinian state — something the current Israeli government is vocally opposed to.

Though the WSJ report did not indicate what would happen to Hamas in such an agreement, it did note that Hamas’s Gaza leader Yahya Sinwar — the mastermind of the October 7 massacres — and its Doha-based politburo leader Ismail Haniyeh have not spoken in a month, and are at odds over the potential demilitarization of the Strip.

 

 

Senior Israel Defense Force commanders believe that Israel’s two stated goals of destroying Hamas and freeing the Israeli hostages it holds are “not compatible.”

The US and Israel have also been at odds over Gaza’s postwar future, with Biden seeking a revitalized Palestinian Authority to take charge, with an eventual path to a two-state solution.
