As the hart panteth after the water brooks, so panteth my soul after thee, O God. My soul thirsteth for God, for the living God: when shall I come and appear before God?
The first stage of the hostage release deal between Israel and Hamas is now at mid-point. So what may happen in the latter half of this stage, and will there be a second stage?
POTUS’ proposal to empty Gaza of its population, thereby stripping Hamas of its power to rule the Strip and threaten Israel, was rejected by Arab governments. So this brings Israel back to its war to eradicate Hamas as the Islamic organisation will certainly not volunteer to close up shop.
Is this militarily feasible? In light of the fact that Hamas will continue to keep dozens of hostages, releasing them only once its survival is guaranteed? Joining us for the discussion:
