The demolition of Gaza is not beneficial and will not lead to peace because, as we have discussed previously, it's impossible to bomb a population into submission and obedience. Even if every member of Hamas is killed, Israel's horrifying actions in Gaza will have radicalized far more people toward violent resistance against the occupation. Hamas is incapable of producing recruitment materials more effective than the footage Israel itself is creating by incinerating Palestinian families in full view of the entire world.

The demolition of Gaza is not necessary because there are real pathways to a true and lasting peace which do not require a single bomb to be dropped, and there are also very easy ways to return to the abusive status quo of October 6 without dropping a single bomb.
