(ILTV-Ynet News) Calev Ben-David - The international pressure campaign against Israel is benefiting Hamas and is the reason it has not yet agreed to a ceasefire, according to IDF Lt.-Col. (ret.) Jonathan Conricus, a senior fellow at the Foundation for the Defense of Democracies. "Hamas has hardened its positions in negotiations, and its stand towards Israel and the negotiating powers, because they got a lot of support from 27 important countries in the world who signed a letter urging Israel, not Hamas, to end the war and to implement the ceasefire, as if Israel was the party not doing it. When Hamas saw that happening, they immediately translated that to: okay, we can demand more." Hamas believes it can continue to starve Gazan civilians, fight against Israel, and hold hostages because it "has international support." "There is an orchestrated, funded and coordinated effort that Hamas is part of, but other organizations, UN organizations and others, are part of it, which is aimed at applying diplomatic pressure on Israel." 2025-07-29 00:00:00Full Article
