I agree that Israel settlements are terrible policy and the occupation of the West Bank should end.
Hamas believes any land inside or outside of Israel proper is land that is occupied.
Their political goals and methods of Hamas drown out the legitimate criticism of Israel.
Hamas is terrible for the average Palestinian. Hamas empowers the right wing in Israel who point out Israel’s legitimate security concerns.
in September Israel had just increased the number of entry of people from Gaza to work in Israel. Those permits will now likely be gone.
the other problem is Fatah is corrupt and no longer hold legitimate authority.
both the Palestinians and Israelis have poor leaders.
the Olmert proposal in around 2008 where Israel would have given back about 93 percent of the West Bank and swapped about 4 or 5 percent of land within the 1967 lines and had a way to connect West Bank and Gaza may have been the last peace proposal for a long time. At least until Fatah completely gets new leadership and is seen as legit and Israel gets new leaders. It is a messed up situation with little hope.
