(Makor Rishon-Israel Hayom) Meir Ben Shabbat - Hamas draws encouragement from the success of the "hunger in Gaza" campaign and the responses it generated worldwide. They are also pleased with the connection made between the Palestinian statehood recognition initiative and the war, which turned this initiative into a political achievement for Hamas. Add to this the easing of military pressure and the flooding of Gaza with food and civilian supplies, and we can understand the arrogance displayed by Hamas. When they see Israel is under attack from all sides, they see no reason to be flexible. Yet if Israel agrees to ending the war on Hamas's terms, this will not only leave Hamas as the central power in Gaza, which will enable it to rearm and strengthen again, but also paves the way for Hamas to take control of the West Bank as well, where it already enjoys great popularity. The writer, head of the Misgav Institute for National Security and Zionist Strategy, served as National Security Council head during 2017-2021. 2025-08-05 00:00:00Full Article
