    Once again, Hamas has the power to accept a deal that offers amnesty for their leaders if they just release the remaining hostages, and hand over power to a civilian governance.

    It’s hard to imagine a better offer but Hamas has reportedly already rejected it.

      A better offer would also include Israel getting the fuck out of Palestine.

          Did they? They controlled its borders, air space, water, power, trash, money, trade, food, etc. They still occupied the space. They had guns pointed into it and would snipe people who walk near the edge or throw things into it. Every now and then soldiers would go in for some reason or another. They had policies to control the number of calories that went in to keep it down to the bare minimum. It was an open air concentration camp, not sovereign territory.
