Going through this predicament, the Israeli Pink Group would recommend a radical various: Israel ought to name for a everlasting cease-fire that may be adopted by a direct Israeli withdrawal of all army forces in Gaza on the situation that Hamas return all of the hostages it has left, civilians and army, and any useless. However Hamas would get no Palestinian prisoners in return. Only a clear deal — Israeli withdrawal and a everlasting cease-fire in return for the 130-plus Israeli hostages.
There could be an Israeli asterisk, although, which wouldn’t be written in, however everybody would perceive it’s there: Israel reserves the appropriate sooner or later to deliver to justice the highest Hamas leaders who deliberate this bloodbath. Because it did after the Munich bloodbath, although, Israel will do this with a scalpel, not a hammer.
What is perhaps the benefits of such a technique for Israel? The Pink Group would cite 5.
First, it will argue, all of the stress for a cease-fire to spare Gazan civilians extra loss of life and destruction would fall on Hamas, not on Israel. Let Hamas inform its folks dwelling out within the chilly and rain — and the world — that it’ll not conform to a cease-fire for the mere humanitarian worth of returning all of the Israeli hostages.
Furthermore, Israel could have ensured that Hamas will get no large political victory out of this conflict like forcing Israel to free all of the greater than 6,000 Palestinian prisoners in its jails in return for the hostages Hamas is holding. No, no — it will simply be a clear deal: everlasting cease-fire for Israeli hostages, interval. The world can perceive that. Let’s see Hamas reject it and declare that it desires extra conflict.
Second, some, possibly many, in Israel will complain that the army didn’t obtain its acknowledged goal of eliminating Hamas, subsequently it’s a Hamas victory. The Pink Group would reply that, for starters, the target was unrealistic, particularly with a right-wing Israeli authorities unwilling to work with the extra reasonable Palestinian Authority within the West Financial institution to construct a substitute for Hamas to run Gaza.
