Trump still hasn't learned; you can't make deals with Hamas or Hizbollah or Iran.

How are we going to get all their weapons? They have miles and miles of underground tunnels full of weapons cache's and they might hand over some, and then Israel will stop, and they will regroup and do it all over again. As long as Hamas is still standing they will try to destroy Israel.

Mr. Trump and most of the Western World fail to understand the doctrine of taqiyyah in Islam, Holy lying. It is acceptable to lie to an infidel, to break oaths, to wage war by stabbing in the back.

Unless Israel were to kill every single Hamas member, and a host of non-Hamas along with them, the problem itself won't go away. But by destroying Hamas they will find it quite difficult to wage war and the populace of Palestine may eventually decide it's better to make peace with Israel and live a reasonable life than to wage endless war against her and live in squalor, hunger, and die by violence.

In war a people must FEEL beaten, not just BE beaten. If they still think they can win the fight will continue. Making a deal with Hamas will only kick the can down the road.

The only way to deal with the more religious and radical Muslims is to defeat and destroy them to a point where they doubt their ability to continue to fight. After the Crusaders took the Holy Back back from the Turks there was a hundred years of relative peace in the region because the Muslims thought Allah had abandoned them and they feared attacking the Crusader kingdoms. But they slowly regained their confidence as they made advances and defeated Christian kingdoms. Within two centuries of the First Crusade Jerusalem fell - the final domino. But it took the Muslims that long to take the land not because they were up against superior forces but because the Christians militaries had crushed them at the very beginning (and sadly the Christians forgot the lesson and stopped fighting to keep the small kingdoms in tact.)

Islam has to be forced to retreat. It is like kudzu, an invasive species that grows over everything if it isn't aggressively pruned.

Trump should know that by now.
