Bad Deal For Israel, Good Deal For Hamas

I am studiously avoiding watching the network news after hearing today that:

33 hostages released in 6 weeks, women and children first: These are the details of the deal. At least 3 hostages will be released each week during the 42-day cease-fire as the IDF gradually withdraws from central Gaza and displaced persons return to the north; For each kidnapped civilian, 30 terrorists will be released, and for each female soldier 50; Negotiations on the second phase of the deal will begin by the 16th day

and that Hamas will remain in power. 

If you listen to the news, you'd swear Israel and Hamas are 2 equal states, rather than 1 Jewish state and 1 Islamic terrorist organization that committed the Oct.7 atrocities and is dedicated to eradicating Israel.

In an ideal world, Hamas would release all the hostages immediately -- and then Israel would destroy the rest of Hamas. 

Instead, the vicious cycle started by Hamas will continue.
