READ: Trump’s 20-point proposal for peace in Gaza Strip, ending Israel-Hamas war

This “peace deal” is a demand for Hamas’s surrender. Hamas surrendering may bring peace, but I generally wouldn’t call a demand for surrender a ‘peace deal’.

Sometimes, for wars to end, leaders on the losing side have to decide that they love their kids more than they hate their enemy. Hamas hates Israel more than they care about the lives of Palestinians, so Hamas refuses to surrender.

Cameras are a legitimate target in the Gaza war because Hamas tries to record their attacks. However, hospitals are protected and a very good justification is needed to hit one and minimal force should be used. Two tank shells is not minimal force.

Treating the Israelis simply as settler colonialists that inherently need to genocide the people they stole their land from gives the Palestinians no agency. It ignores that Palestinians really could have had a Palestinian state but some Palestinians have repeatedly made that not possible by acts of terror.
