    It’s not so simple. Israel have acted in bad faith and abandoned promises before as well so Hamas and those in Gaza felt they were pushed.

    The problem now has been that generations of trauma and conflict placed both Israel and Palestine to support hardliners in their own. After all, Benjamin Netanyahu’s government is filled with ultranationalists who don’t want to compromise. Conversely, the last election of Palestine elected for Hamas, an extremist group in Gaza (the West Bank elected for the moderate PLO but they are effectively muzzled by Netanyahu).
