Why would they want a deal? This is all going according to plan. Does anyone actually think they didn’t expect Gaza to get leveled after Oct 7th, that Netanyahu would be nice or reasonable about it? Or maybe that they could stop the Israeli air force or something? I don’t think they’re that dumb, and it’s one of the reasons they invested in the tunnel network in the first place.
And even if they did want a deal, Netanyahu doesn’t, because the war is his excuse to stay in power and stave off investigations.
