    Looks like you were right when you said this: https://lemmygrad.ml/post/12334797/8514359

    The statement does read very much to me like Hamas is essentially saying, Palestinian statehood and sovereignty is the only path to willing disarmament of the Palestinian resistance factions. Like, they’re only going to agree to it if it means there’s a recognized/respected Palestinian state that is independently (from any occupier) handling militarized matters.

    And this part:

    The occupation’s commitment to halting the killing and ending its attacks is the fundamental prerequisite and the first step in proceeding with the implementation

    It reminds me of Iran’s negotiations with the US a bit. In that, it communicates their willingness to come to the table and negotiate, but in practice, it is unlikely to go that way because of how rabid the empire and its regional attack dog is.
