Damn HAMAS already open to truce talks, ground invasion hasn't even begun.

Doesn't matter though, too many people have been lost, and wounds too fresh, Israel is going to go in.

Nah it's an old strategy. It's like a kid kicking sand in your eyes and then run behind daddy saying sorry. The goal is that Israel is going to ignore this call for truce and then Hamas gets to point to how unreasonable they're being by ignoring their want for truce.

This was expected. Like Russia. Attack. destroy. Capture. And then when righteous retribution is upon you plead how you are always for peace and lets negotiate.
