It’s a buffer zone (so not really taking more land for themselves, more like reducing the Gaza side) to better prepare for blitz terrorist attacks like the one on oct 7. Makes a lot of sense to me. Should Palestine show will to establish a democratic, civilized authority over its land, I’m sure that could change (like the Israeli disengagement in 2005…).

Hamas is currently in charge because that didn’t work. They then tried for peace in 2008 and 2012, which also didn’t work. Like imagine being the war-hungry side in a deal with Hamas.
Also, then why are there currently honest to God pogroms in the West Bank?
