Samer Al-Atrush认为,加沙停火比之前更有可能达成,因为哈马斯失去了发动地区战争的威胁这一重要筹码。黎巴嫩停火后,真主党和伊朗都被排除在外,哈马斯对去年10月7日袭击以色列后会引发地区战争的预期落空,导致其地位削弱。哈马斯现在唯一的筹码是人质,他们不太可能在没有至少将时间倒回10月6日(袭击前一天)的情况下释放人质。他们的诉求包括以色列完全撤出加沙、重建援助以及难民返回。以色列政府内部对与哈马斯达成停火协议存在严重分歧,极端右翼势力甚至希望完全消灭哈马斯或重新在加沙建定居点。以色列可能接受的停火协议包括释放人质,但不包括完全撤军,而是保留在加沙边界地区的控制权。以色列认为哈马斯目前孤立无援,如果以色列坚持立场,哈马斯最终会接受其条件。但哈马斯也可能面临来自调停者和美国的压力,或者选择孤注一掷。在特朗普执政下,加沙停火更有可能达成,部分原因是拜登政府任期即将结束,以及内塔尼亚胡与特朗普的私人关系更好。特朗普被认为比拜登更支持以色列,但他更难以被忽视。如果特朗普下令结束战争,战争很可能会很快结束。特朗普与沙特王储和埃及总统关系密切,这可能使他更有可能促成停火协议。沙特阿拉伯可能利用结束战争的机会促成以色列与巴勒斯坦的和平协议。 Alex Dibble和James Hansen主要负责引导访谈,提出问题,并对Samer Al-Atrush的观点进行总结和补充。他们没有表达自己明确的政治立场。
