1) Israel have tried the generous approach; Hamas proliferate regardless.
2) Hamas have said that they thought the Oct 7 attack would lead to an explosion of attacks from Lebanon and elsewhere once word got out. Didn’t happen. That may have been their main goal.
3) The geopolitical landscape has changed with Saudi Arabia very interested (still) in normalizing relations. That will be a huge factor in the coming years. And with this line crossed, let’s see what happens with Qatar.
