HAMAS has the destruction of Israel as one of their non-negotiable demands. What does Israel gain from negotiating with a group whose primary demand is Israel's destruction?
-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
What a piece of prime bullshit cybrsage, please explain why Israel can pick and choose who to negotiate with and who not?
Every other nation on earth engaged in wars with other nations or terrorists groups, realizes that they may not like the entity they are at "War with" , but if they want a a peace rather than engage in a protracted war they cannot win, they have hold their nose, and negotiate with the enemy they hate if they want to end a war that is bleeding them dry also.
Its why the USA engaged in peace talks with the North Koreans, engaged in peace talks with the North Vietnamese, engaged in peace talks with Saddam Hussein at the end of Gulf war one, and now even engages in peace talks with the Taliban.
But somehow cybrsage you assert, only Israel out of all other world nations has the right to refuse to negotiate with other entities that do not like Israel.
Yet at the same you stand four square for the Israeli right to act in total hostility to any entity it does not like as Israel dedicates itself to their destruction. As a classic example may be Hamas, who democratically won the right to lead the people of Gaza. As Israel dedicates itself to the destruction of Hamas.
And now Israel suddenly discovers, the very Hamas and Gaza they tried to drive to total starvation, has resulted in EGYPT saying to Israel, we will no longer help or allow Israel to embargo Hamas.
