Maybe not, but this war started in October

I'm sorry, I must be misunderstanding you. You aren't asserting that the Israeli/Palestinian conflict in Gaza started within the last 12 months, are you?

Because if you are, then I strongly encourage you to look a little bit deeper into this whole thing. It's been going on for decades.

I'm talking about this particular war. Before October 7th, they we're in a cease fire and it would have stayed that way if not for Hamas

A ceasefire, by definition and historical example, is a temporary stopping of hostile activity. Often this is to have a chat between leaders. If we assume all ceasefires occur for peace talks clearly this one didn't end well.

So no, this isn't a new war. This is the same war and same set of conflicts. Though the original reasons have probably been lost with time, or evolved further into bullshit.

Lol, word it however you want, but they weren't fighting the day before, or the week before. The fighting that we are witnessing now wouldn't be happening if Hamas didn't attack them on Oct. 7
