Well, what's your solution?

The same solution to Apartheid in south Africa. Give the Palestinians the rights they deserve, stop oppressing them and Hamas magically disappears.

Also israel not funding Hamas could help. They surpress people and fund the organization that does armed resistance. Mhhh wonder why they got so many members.

There's just no guarantee for that specific outcome.

Look what happened with the withdrawal from Afghanistan. Nominally, the Taliban were fighting the Western oppressors. But when U.S. troops left, the Taliban didn't just magically disappear.

For that matter, look at Saudi Arabia or Iran or Qatar or Dubai or Abu Dhabi. They're essentially doing the exact same thing as the Taliban, just with a lot more money. No outside oppressor there.

Given that Hamas shares a lot of the same ideology when it comes to ruling Gaza, what makes you believe they would just magically disappear? Why wouldn't Hamas want to rule Gaza like the Taliban rule Afghanistan, or like the House of Saud rules Saudi Arabia?

The solution was reached weeks ago when they killed 1200 innocent civilians. Now they're at 10x that amount. Time for them to go home and not do an ethnic cleansing.
