Looks like the Banned on the Run finally got the message. With the IDF closing in on Hamas’ Gaza leadership in a Khan Younis bunker and their international sheiks now on the run from the Mossad, it has begun to dawn on them that October 7 really did change everything. The Israelis clearly intend to either drown or shoot Hamas dead to the last man, and this time the US will not be able to restrain them. Even their hostaging strategy hasn’t worked.
And just like that, from the river to the sea has changed to Let’s Join the PLO. Al-Monitor reported last night that a “top” Hamas official has floated

Lying to an infidel is part of Jihad.
This is a Lie. It is a tactical withdrawal to regroup, rearm, and continue. Kill them all.

Is there any faint chance this name Ghazi ultimate traces back to Gad? First Palestinian I ever met, told me his grandmother was Jewish, and it turned out to be his maternal grandmother, so I said, so you're Jewish. And he said if I ever said that to anybody else he would kill me. OK ya dope. I took the lesson and forgot you ok? And the lessons is, "the hypocrisy is fathoms deep."

Who says the PLO wants anything to do with Hamas anyway? No one else does.

The word of an anonymous Hamas "leader," is not good.
All they really want is a "hudna," a ceasefire so they can regroup and rearm.
I think Israel knows this.

I would hope the Israelis would say they will continue to bomb the Hell out of Hamas until the Hostages are brought back safe and in good health! Until then, NO deals! Do not believe anything they say until they bring those people back. If they refuse to do so, it means the Hostages are Dead! Give them a deadline. If they don't appear, Bomb them back to Sand and get it over with!

We can forgive [the Arabs] for killing our children. We cannot forgive them for forcing us to kill their children. We will only have peace with [the Arabs] when they love their children more than they hate us...

If someone from Hamas is 'waving' the white flag, they are still alive. Playing possum is a timeless tactic.

PLO was/is "secular", officially non-islamist, merely pan arab socialist/communist/collectivist, there was a change to title PLA in order to distance themselves from certain historical aspects of idiocy and infamy...there are already deep divides between Baathists, MB Islamists, Persian/Iranian shiaa's, and sunii as well as sufi factions. There is no "Unified Palestinian Authority", when not actually in a fight with the Jews...they are fighting each other, driving each other out of various areas, enriching themselves individually by any means available. The background foundational aspect is some form of theater wide "Empire", either a Syrian one, an Turkish/Ottoman one, a Persian/Iranian one, all similar to a Soviet model...without the anti-religion aspect. There are differing degrees of Nationalistic allowances and non-national Global/Regionalist goals. In many ways it is the same discords/divides between the Leninists, Stalinists, Trotsyites factions that fractured the Soviets, combined with the same differences between the Soviet Communists vs the Chinese.maoists...both Communist empires have steered and funded the so-called palistinians. They were aligned.with the Germans and Ottomans in WW1, then with Mussolini, Hitler, Stalin right from the jump as they came to power prior to WW2. They are still basically Bashi Bazouks, a vicious unprincipled, disparate, rabble, supported by looting, but temporarily useful by various distant functioning states in conjunction with their legitimate armed forces to help impose their will...but once the territorial expansions are imposed (or defeated) then cast off by those rulers and sent off somewhere where they can do less harm to any stable society.

Since the koran permits lying, tell them OK, and when they come out, shout April Fools and shoot or hang every last one of them!

Recognition until the next attack.
Reagan said trust but verify.
In this case Don't Trust, that would be a fools errand.
In the case of the leadership that hid out, Let them relax and then take them out one at a time.

The Hamas are evil filth, bent on the murder of all innocent people who aren't in their particular fanatic religious group.
They will tell any lie that will gain them a momentary advantage, but their underlying motive is MURDER.
The only solution I see is to kill them.
Every. Last. One.

Translation: "We thought Israel would stop due to public, like they always do, but they did not. We are about to be wiped out."
The official Israeli response should be: "Nuts".
