a three state solution. All countries have borders that should be enforced, but I don't agree with isolating them. There would be no functional difference from what they have now. In fact, they would end up with less.

We can expect Hamas to continue, unless Israel is successful in eliminating their upper command. The new government must understand that Israel will finish them completely if they cross borders and attack again.

As far as settlements in the West Bank, sure they can submit to living in a foreign country, or they can move out.

I really didn't know that Gaza and the West Bank hate one another. That's creepy.

I am pretty sure you are right. You don't mobilize 300,000 troops for nothing. However, Israel JohnSJ Oct 2023 #9
