The ongoing war in Gaza, despite international condemnation and calls for a ceasefire, sees Israeli PM Netanyahu insisting on defeating Hamas. Hamas has shown readiness for peace talks, proposing a technocratic governance of Gaza. However, Netanyahu's refusal stems from a desire to avoid scrutiny over his legal issues and the October 7 security lapse. Analysts suggest that continuing the conflict allows Netanyahu to divert attention from his corruption trials while managing public opinion, as failing to confront Hamas might expose his leadership flaws.
There's ample evidence by now that the only reason this genocide is ongoing is because Netanyahu wants it to continue. It's clearly just an excuse to keep the war going.
He's afraid once it's done, eyes will rightfully turn to him over corruption and the failures of October 7, Diana Buttu, a legal scholar and former adviser to the Palestine Liberation Organization, said.
