> There is no evidence that if Hamas stops attacking Israel, Israel would stop attacking Hamas

I never said to stop attacking. I said not to target civilians.

Forward looking, for Hamas to credibly swear off civilian violence, it would have to hold its leaders who ordered those attacks who remain accountable. I don’t see that. I do, however, see such an action pretty aggressively shifting attitudes in Europe and Asia, potentially also America, potentially even in Israel given they’re in an election where Netanyahu is on the back foot.

> Israel deposed the PLO and put Hamas in power instead

This was a concerted effort between Israel, America and Iran. (Hamas is pretty decently modeled as an Iranian occupying force. This analogy extends to Hezbollah.)
