The surprise move, in a declaration endorsed on Tuesday by the 22 member nations of the Arab League, also condemned Hamas’s Oct. 7 attacks on Israel, which set off the devastating war in Gaza.

      Creating a sovereign Palestinian state is ending the occupation. Also note that I never said Palestinians should lay down their arms; I only said that when/if a democratic state is created those arms should be in the hands of that democratic state, not unelected paramilitaries.

      TL;DR: Israel fucks off then Palestinian paramilitaries disband, not the other way around.

        Arab countries and the west want hamas to disarm before the state is created and if the state ever got created they want it to have no army.

        When you keep sending arms to israel and have great trading with them there is no reason,why israel will ever allow a state

          Arab countries and the west want hamas to disarm before the state is created and if the state ever got created they want it to have no army.

          This declaration explicitly states otherwise though? You can just, like, go read it. It’s pretty milquetoast stuff.

            False , this is the order 1- Hamas ceases power, disarms, and hands authority to PA

            2 - PA conducts elections to govern all Palestinian territories

            3 - Israel ends occupation and commits to a two-state solution with security guarantees.

            This would just be another failed accord like Oslo accords where the PA respect it’s commitment but Israel continue the occupation with even less resistance. Then the west and Arab countries continue to have great unofficial relations
