    The militant Islamist group has dropped a demand that Israel first commit to a permanent ceasefire before signing the agreement, and would allow negotiations to achieve that throughout the six-week first phase, the source told Reuters on condition of anonymity because the talks are private.

    Giving Israel what they asked for, and they’ll still turn it down…

        The Israeli public are in support of the genocide. This isn’t a Netanyahu problem any more than nazi germany was a hitler problem. Polls from both this and the last time Israel bombed Gaza had <5% of Israeli Jews saying the IDF is bombing gaza too much.

          I’ve looked at 3 separate polls, none of which listed the number of respondents, which calls every bit of it into question. In my opinion of course.

          Via Pew Research

          A new Pew Research Center survey finds that 39% of Israelis say Israel’s military response against Hamas in Gaza has been about right, while 34% say it has not gone far enough and 19% think it has gone too far.

          I did find a <5% figure, on the same page

          Israeli Arabs are much more likely than Jews to say the country’s military response has gone too far (74% vs. 4%).

          Just a bit of context

            Yes, that was the survey and the very data point I was talking about. There’s similar numbers for surveys done during the 2012 and 2006 operations.

            Turns out 90% of the Israeli “left” are the national kind of “socialists”.

              Yeah idk why they even posted this, so 34% of Israelis think there hasn’t been enough genocide? If you really chosen people I cant wait til the lord takes you back.

                I thought it was interesting data, so I put it in a reply.

                Don’t be an antisemite.
