    That’s what they said about the war in Ukraine, too. It’s been two years, soon.

    This is the best summary I could come up with:


    The war began on 7 October after Hamas led a wave of deadly attacks on communities inside Israel.

    Last week US Secretary of State Anthony Blinken called on Israel to lower the intensity of its strikes to limit “harm done to civilians”.

    On Tuesday Herzi Halevi, chief of staff of the Israel Defense Forces, told a news conference that the war would “continue for many more months” to ensure that “our achievements are preserved for a long time”.

    A previous temporary truce deal negotiated by Qatar saw dozens of hostages released from Gaza in exchange for Palestinian prisoners.

    Meanwhile Israeli Minister of Strategic Affairs Ron Dermer is Washington for talks with Mr Blinken and National Security Adviser Jake Sullivan.

    The talks will focus on “matters related to the conflict in Gaza and the return of hostages held by Hamas”, National Security Council spokesperson Adrienne Watson said.


    The original article contains 416 words, the summary contains 146 words. Saved 65%. I’m a bot and I’m open source!

    They’ve said, multiple times, their goal is to eliminate Hamas. This shouldn’t come as a surprise.

      If all they wanted was genocide they would have stayed on their side of the border and simply shelled Gaza to the ground.

    Hamas should surrender. They’re not winning this but they are getting a lot of Palestinians killed.

    This is a genocide. The Israeli government and military however are obligated to make absolutely certain nothing like 10-7 can ever happen again. Does anyone have a solution to ensure that that’s better that complete genocide?
