@no1marauder saidPeople help bad, evil people all the time, and the aim is to appease them which will hopefully get them to change their mind, repent their evil ways, and live in peace. That is more reasonable conclusion than your nonsensical one that Netanyhu's aim was for Hamas to kill Jews.
Huh? Haven't you written literally hundreds of posts saying that Hamas wants to kill all Jews?
@Rajk999 saidLMAO!

You really can't hold two consistent thoughts in that empty head of yours, can you?
Hamas continuing their struggle by armed means was always inevitable and Netanyahu knew that as well as anyone. He was, and is, willing to accept Israeli deaths to prevent any type of Palestinian State.
@no1marauder saidSounds like a conspiracy theory nonsense that only idiots believe.

Carry on.
@Cliff-Mashburn saidThey don't want to surrender the land of Palestine to the Israelis.
Even the other Arab/Muslim countries won't allow them in.
Gotta be a reason for that.

@Rajk999 saidYes, your newfound theory that Benjamin Netanyahu thought he could make Hamas a peaceful organization by some minor concessions is far more likely than a "conspiracy theory" that he aided Hamas, despite knowing their extremism and penchant for terrorist acts, to keep Palestinians divided and less likely to obtain a state.

@no1marauder saidDo you really think all that was necessary to have PLO and Hamas divided. They will never become a state, and helping Hamas was irrelevant to them ever getting a viable 2-state solution. They were divided from the very beginning back in the mid 1990s. Israel and Qatar helped Hamas with funding did not make PLO and Hamas any more divided than they were before.

Netanyahu said: "maintaining a separation between the PA in the West Bank and Hamas in Gaza helps prevent the establishment of a Palestinian state." precisely because he knew that attempts at reconciliation between the factions have been ongoing: https://www.timesofisrael.com/in-moscow-talks-hamas-and-fatah-vow-to-seek-unity-of-action-on-post-war-gaza/
Making Hamas stronger vis a vis the PLO is a cynical strategy that Netanyahu has explicitly endorsed and if that means some Israelis get killed, so be it - it's all for the greater good of Zionist expansionism.

"During the current war, Hamas officials have said the group does not want to return to ruling Gaza and that it advocates for forming a government of technocrats to be agreed upon by the various Palestinian factions. That government would then prepare for elections in Gaza and the West Bank, with the intention of forming a unified government."

@no1marauder saidNo Jew wants a bunch of murderers on their border. That however has nothing to do with the giving Hamas money to help it develop Gaza, hoping they will calm down. Your post stated that Netanhyu knew that Hamas would kill Jews and he was ok with it.

And it's true. Of course, he wasn't expecting them to be as good at it as they turned out to be and was politically embarrassed which is why he went completely psycho after October 7, 2023.
You can read the Times of Israel article I initially quoted and see I'm not the only one who thinks this:
"Additionally, since 2014, Netanyahu-led governments have practically turned a blind eye to the incendiary balloons and rocket fire from Gaza." https://www.timesofisrael.com/for-years-netanyahu-propped-up-hamas-now-its-blown-up-in-our-faces/
