WASHINGTON, D.C. – After narrowly backing Israel’s military action in Gaza in November, Americans now oppose the campaign by a solid margin. Fifty-five percent currently disapprove of Israel’s actions, while 36% approve.
But is Israel giving any reason to keep a peaceful behaviour in the region? They have more than a choice, and they chose the worst one yet.
So, do you think Hamas is going to disappear after leveling whole cities? Or thar they need a specific general to land succesful attacks? Neither of those. They need hatred and a general idea of an enemy. And they’re giving them both.
Secondly, Hamas is a loosely organized movement with multiple faces, they can afford terrorist attacks without harming their reputation, but Israel is a democratic state, they can’t do what Hamas did without harming their relationship with other countries on the long run. They cam burn bridges whereas Hamas never had such bridged in the first place.
They need to move better if they want to survive as a state and as a democratic entity. Think before you act. The trace of destruction that they’re leaving behind may have been, in fact, forseen and understood by Hamas.
