Pretty sure Israel won’t stop until everything has been decimated. Hamas is mostly a scapegoat, them surrendering wouldn’t stop anything.

Israel's current public-facing goal is to indefinitely occupy Gaza, and their real goal is genocide, so Hamas surrendering would simply mean fewer people lobbing IEDs at Israel while they murder and displace Gazans. Israeli ethnic cleansing created Hamas, not the other way around.

Israelis are expanding their West Bank land grabs and even terrorizing Christian Palestinian-American villages there.

Separately, the US embassy in Jerusalem has said it condemns recent violence by Israeli settlers against the Christian town of Taybeh in the West Bank. Most of the land there is owned by Palestinian-Americans and, according to locals, some 300 residents are US passport holders. Attacks, including by masked men torching cars and attacking homes, have ramped up. On Monday, settlers set fields ablaze close to a fifth-Century church, leading to a call for international action from the town's priests.

The West Bank shows us that for Gaza, Hamas surrendering would at best change the speed of the Zionist genocide of Palestinians, but not put a stop to it.

I have a genuine question that’s been bugging me. Will Israel sate their bloodlust for revenge and stop the genocide, or wait for their entire society to rot completely from the inside out as they commit themselves fully to the expansionist fascist ideology?

I can’t find the Hannah Arendt quote for the life of me, but she called it correctly from the jump off - maintaining a militarized occupation of Palestine et al without popular mandate or agreement, requires domination via apartheid or ethnic cleansing, and will fundamentally corrupt the state in all aspects of life.

I have a genuine question, how does it feel to play apologist for an ongoing genocide?

Netenyahu said he would not stop. How about israel getting the hell out of pañestine?

This comment is actually kind of slick, I gotta give it to you. Almost subliminal there...

Almost.

Might work on reddit though!

Israel will continue its genocide even if every Hamas member surrenders and commits seppuku. Anyone looking at this for any amount of time would know this. So you're either willfully ignorant or you just hate Palestinians.
