of Hamas's rank and command structure, if you will, or command and control structure, if you will.
They've killed all the senior leaders, political leaders, military leaders, Mohamed Addif, you name it, they've killed them.
And yet the organization has persisted in its ability to retain whatever control of Gaza exists.
It still has battalions of fighters on the ground.
American intelligence has assessed that Hamas, in the span of two years of going through this genocide, has managed to recruit and fill its ranks with the same number of people that Israel has allegedly killed over the course of those two years.
So as a net hold, the organization...
maybe has suffered in its capabilities and has been degraded, no doubt about that, but has not been destroyed.
And the idea that has given birth to Hamas is still very much planted in Gaza.
And it's not an idea, it's something that is going to be uprooted with bombs and drones and surveillance and what we've seen over the past two years.
Again, that is literally the assessment of both American intelligence officials as well as Israeli intelligence officials.
What Netanyahu is doing is he knows very well that there is an attempt to try and stabilize the situation in Gaza.
And what I mean by stabilize is to try to contain Israel from resuming full-scale, a full-blown war.

He's got people in his right-wing government that are agitating to resettle, to repopulate Gaza with Jewish settlers and to make Gaza part of greater Israel.
They've openly talked about, even during the ceasefire, they've openly talked about the need to expel or force Palestinians out of Gaza into Egypt so that they can retake control of that land.
And we've obviously heard Jared Kushner's amazing condo resort plan.
At Davos earlier this year and, you know, technology corridors and parks and amazing, you know, they just basically want to take a genocide and the ruins of a genocide and just completely whitewash it with tourism parks and surf clubs and who knows what else they have in store for Gaza.
Look, these are deranged ideas, deranged ideas.
And as you said, the Board of Peace is the least of those deranged ideas.
And I know a lot of people who've been talking to me unofficially about it.
