Key thing is that the shortages in Gaza are a direct result of Hamas deciding to stockpile food, water, and fuel, and munitions in order to kill, rather than making sure everybody has enough.

end all the fighting

So, you're saying there was no problem prior to Oct. 7.

Hamas has been a problem for a long time

And Netanyahu's government has purposefully been legitimizing Hamas and undermining the PLO"s authority for just as long. Netanyahu does not want peace, he wants terrorists in control of Palestinian territories so he can justify brutality and conflict.

This is a complex issue that goes back many decades, Israel blatantly is trying to convince the world that "Hamas = Palestinians = bad" and "Support for the Palestinian people = anti-Semitism," but the reality is Israel's hands, particularly under Netanyahu, are not clean of this

Netanyahu looks to lose the next Israeli election. Hamas doesn't bother holding them
