Andrew Dowell:以色列和哈马斯在停火谈判中存在根本分歧,以色列寻求暂时停火以继续打击哈马斯,而哈马斯则寻求永久结束冲突。这一根本分歧导致谈判长期停滞不前,尽管美国等方面持续乐观,但停火协议在选举或就职典礼前达成可能性很低。自早春以来,甚至更早,就一直缺乏对停火协议达成的乐观情绪。以色列国内对停火协议的达成存在诸多不满,人质家属尤其感到沮丧。以色列国内关注的焦点是人质问题,而国际社会更关注加沙的人道主义状况。加沙民众对哈马斯存在不满,但由于哈马斯控制着武力,政治压力难以奏效。美国大选、以色列国内的公众压力以及以色列与真主党之间潜在的战争都可能影响停火谈判的结果。加沙战争结束后如何处理的问题尚未明确,这阻碍了战争的结束。如果以色列成功击杀辛瓦尔,可能会为结束战争创造机会。哈马斯的目标是生存,而以色列无法接受哈马斯的“胜利”。哈马斯利用人质作为筹码,但目前这一策略并不奏效。 Anat Peled:以色列人质家属对内塔尼亚胡政府以及国际社会对人质问题的关注不足感到不满,认为他们被遗忘了。内塔尼亚胡和哈马斯领导人辛瓦尔均采取强硬立场,阻碍了停火协议的达成。以色列和哈马斯之间通过埃及、卡塔尔和美国等中间人进行沟通,参与停火谈判的各方代表分别来自以色列情报机构、美国中央情报局、埃及和卡塔尔。黎巴嫩的袭击事件等因素干扰了停火谈判。谈判双方对问题的严重程度认知存在差异,阻碍了问题的解决。目前达成停火协议的前景并不乐观,人质家属感到被遗弃。
