PoliticsNetanyahu’s Gaza stance driven by domestic political calculations: Marwan Bishara
Al Jazeera senior political analyst Marwan Bishara says Benjamin Netanyahu’s rejection of the Gaza peace plan is shaped by domestic political calculations. Bishara stresses that Netanyahu is demanding Hamas’s complete surrender, rather than reciprocal disarmament alongside an Israeli withdrawal. He also suggests that the Israeli government wants to preserve its control over Gaza instead of pursuing a transitional peace process.
