    Because nobody in Gaza is naive enough to believe Israel would actually do as they say. Israel has been steadily taking their land for decades, it’s already over half gone. 2050 is an optimistic guess.

      If you insist Israel being inconsistent to that extent I wonder how would you justify them not starting the ground operation earlier.

        Hamas not starting it earlier? Gaza wasn’t capable of it prior to 10/7. 10/7 happened because Israel got complacent and assumed the “animals” they were caging weren’t intelligent at all. Israel assumed they had all given up.

          Did they tell you that? You just assume Israel’s plan was to do nothing until Gaza lives on a 1 m^2 land? If I wanted to exterminate something that is growing in population by year I’d act asap.

          Also no matter how you look at it the 10/7 was not intelligent at all. Unless you call fulfilling a blood revenge intelligent.
