I am surprised there are no posts about that yet. Also IRL I see a very muted response – some people are happy; others are apprehensive – what is going to happen after (as there is fighting today already); and then there seem to be lots of people who are unhappy or insufficiently-happy for multiple, often opposite reasons: we should not have let terrorists out; we should have done the deal 2 years ago; Trump is great, but prime minister was in the way, etc.
Maybe, people also need time to process what happened (I am writing this several days after already).My current thinking – whatever political steps will follow, we should be grateful for people released; families relieved; soldiers and their families hopefully coming home soon. And all of that with some strategic wins rather than losses, even as some of this is still on paper and depend on will and behavior of multiple players.
Sadly in today’s generation we take everything Hashem gives and continues to give us non stop we take it all for granted and don’t do our Hishtadlus of thanking Hashem for everything Hashem gives us 24-7
Absolutely. Everyone expected then to hold on to some of them forever. Whatever ends up happening with the place, this is simply a fantastic ending to the (living) hostage saga.
It is interesting how this works out to be מקץ שנתיים ימים, but I’m not sure what to make of that.
I don’t really get the key point of this threat but here are my two cents of the future.
Hamas crushes dissent and then says we need to be in charge during a “transition” when you find other leaders to rule (which will neve rhappen bec they will bully and kill them)
Hamas hands over a few rockets but insists we need to keep weapons. After for the time being we are the only ones who can run gaza.
The UN sends a few troops as safekeeppers. They are bought and bullied by Hamas and just extra hamas fighters. No normal peacekeepers agree to go to Gaza.
Israel stays at its current lines in Gaza till hamas steps down. So for the next year or two we stay there.
Semi mild attacks against the IDF here and there occur just enough to scare us but not enough to invoke a war.
A blockade on new building and limited aid while Hamas is there occurs
The ICC, UN and other watchdogs denounce the occupiers for the suffering of Palestinians nebach stuck in tents
Free palestine protests erupt across the world
Follitals sent by Greta
The dems win the midterms and Trump becomes a lameduck
Fast forward 2-3 years later, Israel is forced to allow in cement and with draw the IDF form Gaza. Maybe it gets a little bit of a buffer zone.
Hamas now starts rebuidling its state of the art Hospitals with stronger and better tunnels
5 years later, Hamas is still there and stronger than ever.This doesn’t mean the deal shouldn;t have been signed. We can’t fight forever. But don’t fool yourself. This is the end game
