Independent Sen. Bernie Sanders said Sunday he doesn’t know that a ceasefire is possible in the Israel-Hamas war with “an organization like Hamas” involved.
“I don’t know how you can have a ceasefire, (a) permanent ceasefire, with an organization like Hamas, which is dedicated to turmoil and chaos and destroying the state of Israel,” Sanders told CNN’s Dana Bash on “State of the Union” Sunday.
In normal warfare. When a siege shows that it’s has the ability to starve the populace if continued; it’s the duty of the seiged to surrender before their population starts to starve.
Or to try to escalate. Which do you honestly think Hamas will do?
Honestly, they’re dying. Israel estimates they’ve killed 1/4th of their Army. And based on the things that they’re trying to smuggle in it (oxygen equipment) seems like they might have a significant amount of their forces stuck underground, caved in.
That either makes them fight more desperately or we wait a generation for the surviving Palestinians to grow up and start the fight anew.
We know how this goes, unless Israel makes huge concessions or starts killing even larger numbers of Palestinians
That army was just used offensively against Israel. It must be considered valid to fight it. Those fighters can choose to surrender.
You think they will?
Some will.
But enough to have peace?
At the rate Israel is going? Yes.
Dead men always make peace.
