========== Hamas has achieved a great strategic victory by combining ruthless crimes with ruthless exploitation of social media. https://www.nytimes.com/2023/12/09/world/middleeast/hamas-gaza-israel.html Hamas has achieved its victory goal of preventing peace in the mideast for another generation. The only immediate losers were the people of Palestine and the people of Israel, but collateral losses of economic and political opportunities forgone are apt to be much greater over time. Their Iranian sponsors should be even more pleased, having derailed their greatest fear, the emerging West+Israel+Sunni alliance against Iran - all at negligible cost to Iran.

From the Iranian point of view, that's worth any number of Palestinian martyrs. Hamas agrees. Israel is determined that's the last success Hamas will ever have. Israel knows that if Hamas is given any chance to survive and strike back - it will. So no cease-fire until victory.
