How Israeli, Palestinian and US political actors understand Hamas is not merely a theoretical question – it will determine what kind of agreement can be reached to end the current war, and what the future of Gaza will look like theguardian.com/world/2024/mar…

I came late to this long read, another perceptive deep dive by Joshua Leifer, this time into ISR PM Netanyahu and his legacy. Rings very true on all counts.
