What about Israel's conditions?
Israel ever stated any condition to negotiate with the Palestinians except
stop the god damn violence? Any precondition just to negotiate? I don't think it
ever happened.
Like I proved you before,
Israel also agreed to many precondition for negotiation which led to nothing but more violent statements/actions and refusal from the Palestinians.
Did Israel get to keep its blockade? Did Israel get to keep active troops inside Gaza?
Israel got what it wanted. What did the Palestinians get?
It is not even close to what Israel wants but this is reality, and the blockade for example not going to change any time soon the way I see it, plus the soldiers are withdrawing from Gaza although the operation is not over, do you live on the moon?!
Like I said before, they belong to the losing side, so they have two options.
1.Continue dying and not accept ceasefire under Israel conditions.
This will lead to chaos in Gaza, probably complete disarm of entire Gaza like it was in the past when IDF occupied Gaza, but this time with less Israeli settlements to attack which means much less casualties on the Israeli side, Israeli presence in Rafah will secure Philadelphi border to aid Egypt with the smuggling war of weapons and goods into Gaza.

-Mostly Israel benefit.
-Palestinians only get rid of Hamas.
2.Accept Israel conditions and save the life of themselves.
Saving life of thousands in every future conflict, removing Hamas and securing Abbas as the leader of the Palestinians, rebuild Gaza ruins, and in generally also provides the Palestinians a way to stabilize themselves, economically as well.
Most importantly on the political zone it provides a solid ground for negotiations, if not peace talks which some progress can surly be made - even the smallest one, maybe a chance to prove they are not bloodthirsty primitives and ask Israel nicely to pull off the blockade instead of firing missiles..maybe allow Abbas an easier way to negotiate not under pressure and with zero "excuses for Israeli aggression".
-Mostly Palestinians benefit.
-Israel benefit as well.
