Israel enjoys U.S. support for its goals of destroying Hamas and recovering hostages held by the Palestinian terrorists but the allies differ about what might follow the Gaza war, Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu said on Tuesday (December 12)
Reiterating his past refusal to countenance a return to Gaza rule of the Western-backed Palestinian Authority under President Mahmoud Abbas, Netanyahu said in a statement that Gaza "will be neither Hamas-stan nor 'Fatah-stan'". Fatah is Abbas's faction.
A senior official for the Palestinian Authority (PA) said on Tuesday that comments made by Israel's Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu equating the Oslo accords to what happened on Oct. 7 "confirms his war against all Palestinians".
"We say to Netanyahu that Oslo died under the treads of his tanks, sweeping through our cities, villages, and camps from Jenin to Rafah,” Hussein Al-Sheikh posted on social messaging platform X.
Israel says Hamas terrorists killed 1,200 people in a cross-border rampage into southern Israel on Oct. 7.
