Hamas has called on Israel to allow an impartial international investigation into its attack on 7 October 2023 and has rejected that it killed civilians or committed atrocities.

“The resistance did not target any hospital, school, or house of worship; it did not kill a single journalist or any member of ambulance crews. We challenge [Israel] to prove otherwise,” it said.

In the new document, Hamas said that “Western media and Zionist lobby groups” had launched a disinformation campaign about the events of the attack.

“The Israeli entity promoted a series of lies and fallacies about killing children and raping women, paving the way to proceed with an all-out genocide project that was pre-planned and aimed to erase Gaza from existence,” it said.

    I dont disagree with the steps you highlight and that Israel certainly controls the immediate future. I just think that those steps dont go far enough.

    Nor did the peacekeeping efforts by the UN in recent times. This is largely the failing of the US undermining the international community. What should have been happening since 2023 at least is an increasing sanction pressure followed by military intervention to protect civilians. But so long as the superpower have the veto, its prone to being corrupted by small interest groups, like the zionists. They only need to convice or compel a few dozen people to shield Israeli leadership from consequences.

    People need to learn from the Lessons of the post war WW1 restitution vs the post war WW2 reabilitation. Without reabilitating both sides, the conflict wont end.

    What people dont always remember was that post WW2, not just Germany got socially reabilitated, but also the countries they occupied. without that the seeds for the next conflict would be sown in the hearts of the occupied.
