    What part of that is conspiracy? Israel is using Hamas as justification for their genocide in the region. If Israel negotiated with the people of Gaza (in whatever form that would take) rather than Hamas it would invalidate what they’ve been doing.

          Does it matter who they negotiate with if it ends up stopping the war and saving lives?
