"Netanyahu’s war is a year old, and Sinwar’s war has only just started" 

In this op-ed, David Hearst, the editor-in-chief of Middle East Eye, reflects on the first year of the Gaza war, stating: “Netanyahu’s war is a year old and has no reverse gear. Sinwar’s war has only just started.”
Hearst argues that while Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu’s declared goals-crushing Hamas, securing the return of hostages, and reordering the Middle East-remain unmet, Hamas leader Yehia Sinwar’s strategy has ignited widespread Palestinian resistance. He adds, “This scale of suffering has never been visited on any previous generation of Palestinians,” yet despite the devastation, the spirit of resistance has only grown.
Hearst examines the regional and global consequences of the conflict as Israel finds itself increasingly isolated while Palestinian resilience drives the war into a new phase.
