Regardless the result of the last war in the Gaza Strip, the damage and the great number of victims, I think that Hamas most likely appeared victorious out of this war.
I believe that Israel itself is aware of that, even if they talk about their success of killing two of Hamas Leaders, Said Syam and Jamal Rayan, but they still know very well that such an action is not enough to end up Hamas movement. I guess Israel is aware of its failure to eradicate Hamas from the Gaza Strip, because it’s not only about Hamas itself, but it’s a long story of resistance which was created since the Palestinian-Israeli conflict was born by many other parties and also by every single Palestinian who was forbidden from his right to live a normal life.
Resistance in the Palestinians’ point of view is linked to the occupation; they are two things that can’t be separated. Its either they get their rights back or they fight to the end for this homeland.
Politically speaking, Hamas is now gaining more popularity, not only amongst Palestinians but across the Arab and Muslim world. They are seen as the only party that can face Israel.
Israel attacked Gaza Strip aiming to clean up the area from Hamas and achieve a quiet occupation like the one in the West Bank.
People in the West bank are being killed, detained and got their home demolished but there are no rockets launched against Israel.
Israel want to serve all its interests confiscate people’s homes and expand its boarder but they don’t want any reaction from the Palestinian side, and that’s why they are trying to kill the resistance which I believe will never happen.
I also believe that the War in Gaza was a war of Image, the Israeli Army wanted to restore its image after it was amazingly destroyed in summer 2006 in Lebanon by Hezbollah.
But at the end of the day, I don’t see Israel was victorious in any way, unless they consider killing kids and civilians is victory!
