    Hamas has explicitly said they would accept the 1969 borders with no settlers, no IDF presence, and an actual Palestinian state that’s not controlled by Israel.

    So try again.

      The same Hamas whose charter explicitly calls for the destruction of Israel and the Jewish people? Sure.

        Go read it. No seriously. Stop letting Israel tell you what it says, and actually go read it.

        Here’s the link.

        They clearly do not like Zionism and would love to have the entire region back. But they lay out their demands for peace pretty clearly.

          Also in the linked 2017 charter they state

          1. The following are considered null and void: the Balfour Declaration, the British Mandate Document, the UN Palestine Partition Resolution, and whatever resolutions and measures that derive from them or are similar to them. The establishment of “Israel” is entirely illegal and contravenes the inalienable rights of the Palestinian people and goes against their will and the will of the Ummah; it is also in violation of human rights that are guaranteed by international conventions, foremost among them is the right to self-determination.

          Which certainly sounds like them wanting to destroy Israel.
