Netanyahu: “We disagree with Washington about the day after Hamas... We will not turn Gaza into Hamastan or Fatehistan.”

Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu acknowledged today, Tuesday, that there are differences between his government and the administration of US President Joe Biden over what he described as “the day after Hamas” in the besieged Gaza Strip, in reference to who might be entrusted with managing the Gaza Strip  after the genocidal war waged by Israel against the besieged Strip.


Netanyahu reiterated his assertion that Tel Aviv, under his leadership, will not “repeat the Oslo mistake,” as he put it, and will work to prevent the administration of the Gaza Strip by a Palestinian party, considering that the Gaza Strip will not turn into “Hamastan or Fatehistan, after the enormous sacrifices made by our citizens and fighters” according to his expression.


Netanyahu stressed that his government would not allow “those who teach terrorism, support terrorism, and finance terrorism to be brought into Gaza,” referring to the Palestinian Authority, and said: “Yes, there are disagreements with Washington about ‘the day after Hamas,’ and I hope that we will reach an agreement.” There was also an understanding on this issue.”


This came in a video speech issued by Netanyahu’s office, in which he expressed his “appreciation for the support provided by the United States to Israel to destroy Hamas and return the Israeli hostages” in the Gaza Strip, and added, “After intensive talks with President Biden and officials in his administration, we obtained full support for ground entry.” And reduce the international pressure we are subjected to, to end the war.”
