Who are the “both parties” here? You said something about “both parties,” do you remember that?
I think that’ll be clear enough once the campaign is over and you barely see a blip in the population of Gaza, and they’re really not too concerned with justifying anything on the world stage—the UN seems to be censuring them every damn day already.
Also: I don’t think you really need an excuse to go rescue 150+ hostages when the hostage-takers don’t have terms to give them back, I think it’s very clear that Hamas is desperate for the invasion to happen. I’m the furthest thing from a war hawk, but I can’t understand what people want to happen here, you want Netanyahu to fly to Qatar and beg this guy to give back the hostages? Offer for all 9.5 million Israelis to leave in the next week? There’s no way Hamas is giving up those hostages, no way they’re going to stop trying to kill every Jew on the planet. They’re acting in good faith on their stated goals.
What more justification do you think Israel actually needs to invade Gaza?
