Been reading Machiavelli again and it has me wondering what's the best play for Biden re Gaza.
Leaving Hamas in power is undesirable; they reliably regrow and cause problems. Permanent Israeli occupation of Gaza is undesirable; occupation by an alien force will be non-stop problems. If Fatah controlled Gaza, that might be... okay?
Machiavelli would suggest giving Gaza to Fatah would create a weak state, but allowing Fatah to defeat Hamas in Rafah would create a stronger state.
