55. You may be right, but your reasoning is wrong.

Hamas cannot be defeated on the battlefield as long as children get indoctrinated virtually from birth to become terrorists. It doesn't matter whether or not children die in Gaza. It will continue as long as Islamist radicals are in charge of Gaza's education system, regardless of whether there are war casualties or not. It is the indoctrination into the culture of martyrdom,, not war casualties that is the cause. Dead children are the effect.

And we all know where the indoctrination comes from, who controls it and who uses it to gain and maintain power. Radical Islamism. Hamas is but a cog in the machine.

You can destroy a cog, but it is not sufficient to destroy the machine. What destroying Hamas can accomplish, however, is to temporarily disable the machine. This can buy enough time to address the irreparable damage that their propaganda factories are doing to their young people. But only if sufficient resolve is there to end their control both on the battlefield and in the minds of their children.

And you are right, the radicals will not disappear even with a decisive military defeat, as long as there are interests condoning their murderous intolerance and making excuses for them. Not even if their extremism is met with silence.
