Hamas again raises the possibility of a 2-state compromise. Israel and its allies aren’t convinced

In the latest iteration of its stance, senior Hamas official Khalil al-Hayya told The Associated Press in an interview on Wednesday the group would lay down its weapons and convert into a political party if an independent Palestinian state is established in the West Bank and the Gaza Strip along the pre-1967-borders.

Hamas has done these kind of statements for years, they explicitly never accept the Oslo Accords or a recognition of Israel. They dont offer peace, they offer truces. And again: that's an interview with one single person within Hamas. I can guarantee you that there are multiple senior people within Hamas who will disagree with this proposal - because that always happens. Hamas doesnt work like a top-down organization where the lower personnel silently accepts what the leadership decides.

"No they said they want peace but they really don't wanna! Also ignore israel refusing every peace deal and committing Genocide! And ignore when the Oslo Accords were about to be accepted and then an underling from Netanyahu assassinated the president of israel that was about to accept it! That was actuallly Hamas!"

Take a look over at the West Bank and it beecomes apparent without a single doubt which of the parties is the constant aggressor that refuses any peace.

You're pretty good at ignoring my arguments and making up pseudo-arguments that I never made, I'll give you that.

People who think of this whole conflict as strictly two sides and nothing more will never understand why it has not been solved. You even allude to that yourself by pointing out the right-wing, Netanyahu-aligned murderer of Rabin. But don't follow through with that logic.

You're pretty good at ignoring reality.
