Can the War in Gaza Be Won? - Foreign Affairs (No paywall)
The current war in Gaza is not an isolated conflict that began on
October 7, 2023, when Hamas militants launched an attack inside
Israel. Framing the war this way, as John Spencer does in a recent
article in Foreign Affairs (“Israel Is Winning,” August 21, 2024),
invites many dubious assertions about Israel’s purported progress
toward its war aims and its supposed efforts to protect civilians. And
it accepts without question the Israeli government’s official
position that “Israel is fighting Hamas terrorists, not the
Palestinian population,” as Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin
Netanyahu declared in a speech in January. To simplify the conflict to
a fight between Israel and Hamas is to ignore the on-the-ground
realities that indicate Israel is waging an indiscriminate war on all
Palestinians.
A more accurate understanding of the war must take its broader context
into account. What is happening now in Gaza is one battle within the
larger conflict that has shaped the Israeli-Palestinian relationship
since the founding of Israel and the expulsion of hundreds of
thousands of Palestinians from the new state’s territory in 1948.
Today’s fight cannot be removed from that history and geography;
gaining the upper hand in the current battle is not the same as
winning the wider war. Spencer falls into this trap, miscasting
Israel’s temporary tactical achievements as strategic victory and
underestimating how Israel’s unwillingness to pursue a political
resolution that recognizes the Palestinians’ right to
self-determination will in the end diminish its chances of success.
