A top Hamas political official told The Associated Press the Islamic militant group is willing to agree to a truce of five years or more with Israel and that it would lay down its weapons and convert into a political party if an independent Palestinian state is established along pre-1967 borders.

    Yitzhak Rabin was assassinated by an Israeli law student who didn’t believe in the peace talks. Hamas didn’t even kill him, Israel did it. No fucking surprise there.

      You saying Israel killed him is like saying Palestine committed Oct. 7th’s terrorist attack.

      Israel didn’t kill the guy, a lone Israeli student did. This is one of those times when facts and nuance matter.

      Hamas was also not in power back then, in no position to accept or reject any solution.
