Wilkie Joins Newsmax: Hamas Ceasefire Talks Collapse Due to Bad Faith
Former Defense official Robert Wilkie warns that Hamas is not negotiating in good faith, calling the current ceasefire efforts a diplomatic dead end. He argues that Hamas has shown no genuine willingness to engage in peace talks or compromise, instead using negotiation attempts as a smokescreen to regroup and delay military pressure. Wilkie emphasizes that Israel and the U.S. must confront reality: without a credible partner at the table, continued talks only embolden Hamas’s tactics. He calls for strong, clear-eyed leadership in the face of this strategic deception.
