  1. And everyone else says palestinian state will not be established unless hamas disarms

  2. When are these guys going to figure out that it’s over, and they lost

  3. A Palestinian state may happen, but not the one they want. Jerusalem as their capital? Not happening.

  5. Even if there’s a Palestinian state, how this works is that Hamas will absolutely NOT disarm they’ve had decades to disarm and initiate the process towards statehood, so why believe Hamas now?

  6. The title may as well read “Hamas says it won’t disarm”

  7. Even if the world finds a way to make a two state solution work, Hamas will not disarm.

  8. Dude. Y’all pretty much had that. Then you attacked israel. Pro tip: protect your people, not your state.

  9. Putting ~~my~~ all my money these dudes are lying.

  10. Let’s see how this goes:

    * Palestinian state: established
    * Hamas: still armed
    * Palestinian state does something Hamas doesn’t like: coup

    And we’re right back to where we were

  11. Translation: We keep giving Israel every reason not to work towards a two state solution.

  12. Hamas have no say in anything from now on. They’re terrorists damaging both their people and the people of Israel. No discussion can even start with Hamas still in existence, let anlone armed, and they know it.

  13. At least they are being honest about their delusions now.

    When they planned for october 7th, they actually planned for the take-over of all of Israel, expecting the slaughter of innocents at the music festival to be the opening strikes of an all-out invasion. Which they thought Allah would give them.

    They once again negotiate without realism. Israel will never accept Hamas as a partner in peace. The ship has sailed for Jerusalem (east) as a capital for the Palestinian state.

    What this actually means is that Hamas is a negotiating partner that is not based in reality…or just in bad faith.

    It leaved Israel with little choice but to fight on. It leaves the palestinian civilians to a worse fate with even more suffering. And the hostages that are intentionally starved by now I’m afraid won’t come back alive.

    Fire and blood is the end if nobody else takes leadership away from Hamas. Sadly, Israel has little choice but to stay the course, no matter the international uproar.

  14. Well, it’s pretty obvious that an independent Palestinian state won’t be established until you disarm and stop kidnapping and strangling Jewish children.

  16. Media organizations stop giving terrorists a voice. They massacred people dancing, they don’t deserve to have their opinions published. They have no right to say anything at this point except “we unconditionally surrender.”

  17. Gaza was an independent Palestinian state.  Had they gone once and for all cold turkey on their compulsive need to launch rockets over their border at Israel and their endless plotting to somehow conquer Israel and turn it into their very own Jew free, Islam only state, they might even have been able to get Israel to stop blockading everything with military potential.

    Sadly, they didn’t and now they’re losing all their cropland and turning into an Urban prison with no food production capacity and always a few months of global food crisis away from starvation.

  18. Every last Hamas terrorist needs to be hunted down the way Hanniah and Sinwar were. These terrorists are not looking for peace or a two state solution. They want Israel destroyed and they don’t care what happens to civilians, Palestinians or Israeli. Hunt them down.

  19. I really feel like people need to read about the breakdown of Oslo and the subsequent Antifada to understand why things are the way they are today

  20. There’s about a 100% chance that Hamas will not disarm regardless of what they’re offered.

  21. nah… as long as THEY (Hamas) exist, it should not be allowed.

  22. Guess who will be the single party and armed forces of an independent Palestinian state?

  23. Even then… does anyone believe that hamas will not become a single party in Palestine?

  24. Hamas needs to be eliminated completely. Can’t trust those scum to keep their word

  26. It’s wild that you can get you ass utterly beaten to a palp after threatening someone with extermination, but then if you cry hard enough you can still attempt to negotiate from a position as if you won.

    No one in ideological matters should settle for anything other than unconditional surrender. Anything else just means we do this again in 10-20 years when the next jihaids grow up
