It's because they're a crusader state intended to keep their neighbors' attention.

they did that, so netanyahu can stay in power longer, and justify more aid request from the US. i pointed this out in r/worldnews at the beginning of the war and subsequently banned temporarily from that site, '23.

Arming The Moderate Rebels was, incidentally, how Hamas formed in opposition to the Palestinian Authority two decades ago. Then they became the excuse Israel needed to do genocide at the border.
Cannot be overemphasized that the average age of Palestinians is eighteen. These are children being bombed, caged tortured, displaced, starved, and then armed to turn against one another.
In another ten years, we're going to get another whole fascist line about how Palestinians are feral soulless savages. Textbooks will be written to teach future Israelis how Arabs lack humanity, with the remnants of Palestinian society used as the proof.

Remind me again why Israel is generally considered "the good guys" by the western world? One of the most obscene displays of gaslighting.

It worked with Hamas.

Isn’t this the same strategy being used now by “deputizing” ICE agents who are unmarked

If that's true, they're shooting themselves in the foot. Maybe literally. The organisation of Gazan society is so low it's pretty much irrelevant vs. Israel.
