Why Israel and Hamas Could Be Headed Into a Forever War

This podcast episode explores the ongoing conflict between Israel and Hamas in Gaza, discussing the ceasefire negotiations, the Israeli military's strategies, Hamas' ability to sustain itself, the dire situation in Rafah, the implications of an extended conflict, and the potential impact on the larger regional conflict. The heart of the issue lies in Hamas' insistence on a deal that includes a permanent ceasefire and an end to the war, while Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu refuses to accept any deal that ends the war. The conflict raises concerns about the possibility of a "forever war" between the two sides.
