Meshal responded to persistent calls from Abbas to accept past agreements : “There is proof that Israel does not care for the Palestinian people, does not recognize their rights and does not abide by any agreement signed with them. Moreover, it does not even consider Mahmoud Abbas nor Yasser Arafat as Palestinian partners… Where is the benefit for the people to tie themselves in agreements that time has annulled ?”

From Hamas Contained : The Rise and Pacification of Palestinian Resistance, by Tareq Baconi
Frankly the mods can delete this post if it’s out of topic, nobody cares about that now, i just wanted to remind pro and anti-Hamas people that Hamas could have accepted a two-states solution(, and it’s far from the only proof, it’s even in the art.20 of their charter). It wouldn’t sit well with most palestinian fighters, but would be seen as necessary and then, with enough time, acceptable, i’m in favor of religious diversity even if a european has no right to ask middle-easterners to do such sacrifice, it’s not that much land so europeans could/should give them an acceptable compensation. And it’s perhaps stupid but couldn’t the third temple be fused with al-Aqsa ? Both sides would certainly be displeased but it’s physically doable.
Now i’m just eagerly waiting for supposedly God-fearing israelis(, who claim to represent jewishness !,) to be treated as they’re treating palestinians, seems fair.
Beyond the genocide, what’s the point of mistreating prisoners if not a lack of empathy towards fellow humans ?

Israel just murdered Hamas’ head negotiator, in Qatar, since they don’t care about negotiating, nor fear nonexistent consequences for their actions.
Meanwhile, as usual since the 90s :

From the year 2000 until Operation Cast Lead broke out, Israel had killed more than 3,000 Palestinians in Gaza, including 634 children. Seen in this context, Cast Lead was a continuation of Israel’s use of sheer force to break Hamas, and in the process to circumvent all the political gestures that the movement had offered Israel. This was despite warnings from senior figures such as the previous head of the Mossad, Efraim Halevy, who insisted that Hamas had already indicated a willingness to compromise to achieve a two-state solution and was open to negotiations.

(i’m not saying that Hamas was openly supporting a two-states solution, but that it could/would have with a less hopeless behavior from Israel)

If palestinians will never accept a two-states solution along the 1967 borders, regardless of anything that israelis could do, then israelis are only left with one option.
If the israeli government will never accept a two-states solution along the 1967 borders, regardless of anything that palestinians could do to reassure them, then palestinians are only left with one option.
