If anything the Hamas attack set back a Palestinian statehood 100xLook at Israel’s reputation before Oct 7th and now. Then ask yourself what Hamas accomplished.
And now I’m not defending their means. But their accomplishments are obvious.
At the end of all this it’s likely that Palestinians will achieve official internationally recognized statehood, which can be leveraged to engage in real dialogue about establishing a sovereign state. That said, it’s not always easy to make that move into sovereignty as we have seen in other parts of the world. Many times the governments that take over are incompetent at best and corrupt at worst. Still statehood is statehood and will be a huge achievement if that happens.
But again, look at Israel’s international reputation before Oct 7 and now. That’s the real war.
There reputation is exactly the same the people that hated them still hate them and there still getting the same exact support and aid from allies regardless of protests (which has always been going on)
so yeah nothing was accomplished but the destruction of the strip that Israel will have an even stronger hold of and a lot of mealiness deaths
There is no way in any sense you can twist the Oct 7 attack as any kinda win for the Palestinian cause
And if Trump gets back in it is completely null and void
