Israeli Withdrawal from Gaza Poses a Dilemma for Hamas
(Times of Israel) Avi Issacharoff - The IDF is redeploying along the Gaza border after neutralizing the Hamas tunnels extending toward Israel. The IDF will not withdraw entirely from Gaza, but it will leave the populated areas and keep troops deployed in a narrow area inside the Palestinian territory. If this round of hostilities concludes without Israel or Egypt agreeing to accept even one of its demands, Hamas will be humiliated. The Palestinian public will ask itself why Hamas drove Gaza to ruin for no reason, with no results to show for its efforts.
