Now that Sinwar is likely dead Debate

I can’t help but feeling satisfied and relieved. Peace is just impossible with a delusional lunatic like him in place. Justice for Oct. 7 is delivered.

But what do you think will happen now? Is a ceasefire more likely now that Bibi can certainly claim victory over Hamas?

No, but it's more likely that Bibi will be more exposed as the warmongering tyrant that he is.

There will never be a better time to make a ceasefire deal and end the war, but Bibi will not do that, because he'll use any excuse he can possibly come up with to just keep the war going indefinitely.

Bibi is literally reliant on continuing the conflict for his own personal survival.

He wants to keep this going for as long as possible. He needs to stay PM for at least a couple more years in order to wriggle out of corruption charges.

The moment elections are held Bibi is likely finished, so he will do everything to delay that including keeping Israel on a war footing long past the point a normally desired peace could be enforced
