Accepting this and purely as a logistic problem, how would you deal with Hamas who have in their basic charter made clear they don't want Israel to exist?

Should they get the chance, their intention to repeat October 7th has been clearly stated - it's in their charter. What does anyone do under those circumstances? For those who argue that Israel is an illegitimate State, I guess the practical question is where should the 9.5 million colonialist Israelis move to? And who would accept them?

That's probably a totally separate discussion, but in my opinion they should try to win back the hearts and minds of the Palestinians and thereby totally undermine support for Hamas. Which would certainly not be easy at this point.

Hamas was specifically funded by Netanyahu to prevent a 2SS:

And he weakened the moderates on purpose. So what we need to do is the opposite of Netanyahu's strategy - empower the moderates, move towards a 2SS and sanction/isolate/disempower Hamas and similar.

For starters, maybe not massacre women and children who are desperately trying to find food?
