Veteran Israeli peace activist Gershon Baskin writes: "This campaign is not military it is political. When will you understand. 20 years of Qassams and you're still talking about deterrence? Netanyahu has long chosen to keep a weakened Hamas in power and an illegitimate Palestinian Authority in the West Bank so as not to negotiate with the Palestinians. It is not about Sheikh Jarrah and not even about Al-Aqsa - this is about the occupation. What do you really expect from the Palestinian people - that they will lie down and simply accept the occupation as if it is their destiny forever? Netanyahu, and Trump and perhaps even the Gulf states thought they had put the Palestinian issue in a bottle, so let it be clear - the bottle cap has exploded. The Palestinian issue will not go away. The solution is at a negotiating table and not on the battlefield. There is no deterrence against a people who fight for their freedom - we as a people know that better than others."
