In the deal Hamas reached last week with Witkoff, they agreed to hand over governance of Gaza to an independent Palestinian technocratic committee.

In order to get Israel on board, the new agreement, struck with Israel, would leave Hamas in control, according to the draft agreement obtained by @jeremyscahill

If you consider yourself a person who can think independently, I want you to think about what that means. Specifically:

Why is Hamas willing to give up control in order to get a peace deal, yet Israel insists on keeping Hamas in control? Why would that be?
