    Did Israel expect them to? Just to be clear - you are not talking to a Hamas sympathiser here. They are cunts, but apparently they are useful cunts for Israel, so they helped out with funding. What did Israel think they were going to spend those “suitcases of cash” on?

      Did Israel expect their negotiating partner to hold up their end of a negotiated ceasefire? Yes, they absolutely expected that.

      If you don’t hold that Hamas will keep its agreements then how can they be negotiated with?

        Israel isn’t as stupid or naive as you seem to think. They have the best intelligence service in the world and usually know what’s going on. What did they think they were going to spend the cash on? Pokémon cards?

          If everyone knows Hamas won’t keep an agreement then why is Israel subject to such pressure to reach an agreement with them?

          I’m not asking whether Israel is stupid - I’m asking whether you are.
