A commentary published by The Zioneer argues that a U.S.-brokered deal with Hamas would normalize the terrorist organization responsible for the October 7 massacre and allow it to reestablish itself in the Gaza Strip, drawing a parallel to the 'suitcases of money from Qatar' that preceded the attack.
The commentary, published by The Zioneer, criticizes the emerging U.S.-brokered diplomatic framework with Hamas, arguing that it would grant the terrorist organization political legitimacy and enable it to rebuild its capabilities in Gaza. The piece draws a historical parallel to the Qatari cash transfers, which the author says had a similar effect of strengthening Hamas before the October 7 massacre. The commentary reflects ongoing skepticism among Israeli commentators regarding the terms of the proposed agreement, which has been reported to include a phased disarmament process.
