What Incentives Does Israel Have to Agree to a Cease Fire? was Re: World Central Kitchen deaths in Gaza

It is a substack essay.

TL;DR:  There are three reasons why Israel has no incentive to stop
short of total victory:

1. No matter what steps Israel implements to protect civilians  they
are accused of genocide. 

2. Despite the fact that Hamas started the war, and continues to hold
dozens of civilian hostages, the incentives presented to Israel are
punitive while Hamas receives the promise of more benefits.

3. Lastly, with Hamas stating that they will repeats the October 7th
attacks as many times as necessary why would Israel stop short of
their total destruction?
