The prime minister said he won’t allow the Palestinian Authority to take over Gaza, his sharpest comments yet against the White House plan for after the war.
How can the Palestinian Authority possibly rule Gaza? They don’t have either public support there or the soldiers necessary to rule without public support. I expect that even if almost all members of the current Hamas are killed or captured, a new Hamas would form and take over almost immediately unless there’s a sustained military occupation. How such an occupation can eventually transition into a government of Palestinians friendly towards Israel but not directly kept in power by Israeli soldiers is an open question that Netanyahu’s government doesn’t seem well-suited to answer.
(The Palestinian population of Gaza isn’t going anywhere - Egypt is quite clear about the fact that it won’t take Palestinian refugees. There will have to be a two-state solution eventually.)
I get your point. Palestinian authority as is it atm is not capable of running gaza. See how it ended in 2007. They probably would not handle it.
However, Netanyahu with his extremist government would be probably even worse as they would create just more hate towards israel by their actions.
Ideal scenario would be probably some sort of renewed PA without Abbas which is willing to talk to Israel about finally solving this conflict.
Needless to say, current government of Israel would also need to resign to make this happen.
Can you image if Germany would have been occupied after WW1? So many lives saved.
The Palestine people deserve a free country. This is the absolute minimum we can do for them after their homes get destroyed in retaliation for what their government did.

The first step is to hand over the terrorists and every hostage, what the fuck.

Nah, they have a pretty good idea what their Final Solution to Palestinians will be.
