    I don’t see why calling for a ceasefire is such a non-starter. Everyone there can go back to work butchering each other more effectively if they are well rested.

      Hamas’ popularity with the people and their allies is really low right now. A victory (cease fire) corrects that for them

      And also your second part, it’s a lot easier for them to attack Israel if they aren’t expecting it

      Israel and Palestine don’t gain anything from a ceasefire unless negotiations take place

      Because why would Israel stop their genocide if they don’t have to?

      Conducting airstrikes isn’t nearly as exhausting as getting hit by them.
