Copping pleas.... What the fukk did they think would happen? Like people said, if they attacked a bunch of military targets and killed a lot of soldiers, yeah there will be push back but there would still be some ability to appeal to the international community to put pressure on Israel and they could hold a higher ground morally.. Attacking civilians, including some who aren't even Israeli, sealed their fate. Israel now is going to ensure hamas ceases to exist and will kill a ton of people in the process and not many countries that support Israel are going to rush to help put them back on a leash. They should have mostly stuck to military.Hamas official says group is open to discussions over truce with Israel
A senior Hamas official said the group is open to discussions over a possible truce with Israel, having "achieved its targets."www.reuters.com
Palestinians grievences are completely justified and more but it's not really about that. You have to be more strategic if you are out gunned and out manned. They made a bad decision, regardless if justified, and they are probably regretting it a bit. Also, this won't just be israel obliterating Gaza, this will probably make Israel get back on their Nazi hunter and Munich shyt and now try to even touch the Hamas leadership chilling in other countries.
