Why I don't hear about the hostages and Hamas laying down its arms?
just obey the IDF orders and everything will be okay...

No, it won't.
footages from Rafa show a lot of obese philistine women and pot-bellied men and well- nourished children walking around... no evidence of starvation or famine.
So if the IDF doesn't go into Rafah, what's the solution?
Truce for 5 years. And then? Rinse and repeat Oct 7?

Rob Williams should address the return of the hostages and capture of Hamas that are being protected by the Gazans.
No truce until Hamas bends the knee!

Hamas is not a legal reason for the deliberate destruction of civilian infrastructure and civilians in Gaza. That is why israel is in the ICJ for "plausibly committing genocide"

Israel has all the right to defend itself and his people . The Palestinians choose hamas to dominate them, why Jordan does not want them or Turkey, Saudi Arabia and all Muslims countries don’t want them, the blood of his people are in their hands and Hamas.

Shut up you ignorant
You showcased Hamas point of view, what about Israeli point of view.
Rob Williams, everything you said is BS. The Gazans have a responsibility to move themselves out of the area when Israel is providing the tents and a secure location. If they don't (as some did in North Gaza) then it is on them. NOT ON ISRAEL.

Yes there are always civilian casualties in a war. Show me one that doesn't have any. This hasn't held any other army back from trying to achieve their military objectives. At least Israel is trying to evacuate and provide shelter for Gazans. More than can be said for Hamas, which seems to want the opposite. They could end the war tomorrow and avoid future casualties, but they're only interested in saving themselves. As the commentator says, you should distinguish between a combatant and non combatant. Hamas does everything it can to prevent that.

So the hostages are being held in Rafah
The blame goes to Hamas and Netnayaho not the people of Israel.
4 battalions left!! What a joke.
The Egyptians held the Gaza Strip from 1947 until 1967, why didn’t they make it into a “palestinian” state? The country of Jordan (which used to be half of what was then called the Palestinian Mandate before the British separated it and created a new country called Jordan) held the West Bank from 1947 until 1967. Why didn’t Jordan give up the West Bank for a “palestinian” state?
Question still remains. Who is the reason?
making every effort to protect civilians??
DW worried about the children of gaza; what about the grownups?
Lots of reasons denials why don't they release hostages and surrender?
You also need a sensible civilized democratic change in Palestinian leadership.

What do you mean civilian casualties? If one hides with in civilian population and fight war there will be civilian casualties? Hamas should think of this.
IDF propaganda is hard to listen to. Blame Biden for giving them the green light after publicly saying otherwise.
