    I’m willing to bet there will never be any kind of voluntary transfer of power.

    I firmly expect that Israel’s intention is to drive out the Palestinian population and annex Gaza once and for all. Nothing else explains their strategy of mass infrastructure destruction, the regular bombing of civilians, and the regular drumbeat of suggestions of foreign nations like Canada taking in Palestinian refugees. They’re clearly attempting to render Gaza utterly unlivable.

    I mean, what else could possibly be their endgame given the level of destruction Israel has engaged in? A vibrant and functioning Gaza will never be tolerated by the Israeli far right (they literally just finally openly rejected a two state solution, though let’s face it, in practice that’s nothing new). Containment has failed. The only thing left is destruction.

      It’ll never be tolerated by Israel period. Let’s not pretend the Israeli left and non-far right are innocent in this.
