Macron: Destroying Hamas will take 10 years

French President Emmanuel Macron on Saturday said that Israel should clarify its goals in the war against Hamas, claiming that totally destroying the organization could take 10 years.

"We are at a moment when Israeli authorities must more precisely define their objectives and their final goal: the total destruction of Hamas, does anyone think it is possible? If this is the case, the war will last 10 years," Macron told a press conference at the COP28 climate summit in Dubai, as quoted by Reuters.

"There is no lasting security for Israel in the region if its security is achieved at the cost of Palestinian lives and thus of the resentment of public opinions in the region. Let's be collectively lucid," the French President added.

Macron also said France was "very concerned" by the resumption of violence in Gaza and that he was heading to Qatar to help in efforts to kickstart a new truce ahead of a ceasefire.

.....

Macron recently caused an uproar after he said during an interview with the BBC that Israel "should stop killing women and babies in Gaza".

Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu responded to the French President's comments in a press conference with Defense Minister Yoav Gallant and Minister Benny Gantz, saying that Macron "made a grave error" and adding, "We don't need these moral lectures."

A French political official later rejected Netanyahu's criticism, clarifying that Macron "has not changed his position" on Israeli action against Hamas but believes that Israel can and should do more to prevent harm to Palestinian Arab civilians in Gaza.

"Macron later called President Isaac Herzog to clarify the comments, telling Herzog that he does not and did not intend to accuse Israel of intentionally harming innocent civilians in the campaign against Hamas."

Yes, he did.

Destroying Islam will take a lot longer than that.

It would not take ten years and he knows no such thing.
But it would be ten years well spent in any event.

Which consists of one war, which they lost stupidly. But since then, they have been known as “surrender-monkeys,” because they have lost their fighting spirit, and the moral capacity to judge those who have not and dare not lose theirs.

Because something is difficult doesn’t mean you shouldn’t do it.

Yes it does. You should sit in bistros feeling sorry for yourself, writing bad poems without rhyme or meter, and have contempt for people who do things.

It won’t take ten years if the Hamas militants are killed in huge numbers without pause or mercy. You can stop any band of barbarians if you visit total war on them and convince them none of them will survive your efforts.

Bibi will lose power in 6 months or so. It may take Hamas 10 years to rebuild. But they will do that. Even if all the Hamas leaders are killed, their sons will just replace them.

Not going to happen. Bibi will buy Israel some time. But Hamas won't be destroyed.

Hamas only exists because the West funds them.

The West funds Hamas directly with aid, and indirectly by giving funds to Iran.
