Israel has essentially endorsed a framework of a proposed Gaza cease-fire and hostage release deal, and it is now up to Hamas to agree to it, a senior U.S. administration official said Saturday.
They’ve turned down every ceasefire proposal so far, but eventually they’ll have to accept one. Israel is not going to go home when there are still over a hundred hostages in Gaza.
If Israel were interested in wiping out Gaza, the death toll would be in the hundreds of thousands or millions, which would be consistent with other world conflicts.
Clearly Hamas infrastructure still exists, if they are releasing highly produced videos of hostages to torment their families.

This is a common argument but it doesn’t really hold up to scrutiny. You’re saying what would happen if Israel was interested in wiping out Gaza and didn’t care at all about their image. If they did (which they obviously do) they would have to do it more subtly. They are not just going to drop a few nukes and call it a day, that would be geopolitical suicide
Hamas will refuse.

Well yes, they’ve already stated they won’t take a temporary ceasefire.

that article is over a month old.
They stated their terms. At least a permanent ceasefire so they don’t get genocided after two months.
