    Israel has said it’d end the war if Hamas surrenders and releases the hostages.

    Seems like the only way to prevent Palestinian deaths at this point

      Is it?

      Because Israel was killing them before Hamas ever existed, and they won’t suddenly stop after.

        Jews and Muslims fighting? You don’t say?!

        Israel has stated their intent and there’s enough international pressure on them that they’ll keep to it.

        I’m all ears about how you think Hamas prolonging the war for months more will benefit the Palestinians.

          It won’t, but it will kill some Israelis as well, and that’s a sacrifice internet armchair generals are willing to make.

      Israel is Nazi Germany, they won’t stop anything until they’re forced to.
