Why a West Bank Front Has Not Opened So Far
A major point of focus in the ongoing war between Hamas and Israel is the West Bank where Israel worries about a potential second or third front opening in addition to the fighting in Gaza. Neomi Neumann added some context as to why that front has not yet appeared.
Neumann discusses the efforts of Hamas to mobilize the younger generation in the West Bank, leveraging their discontent with the Palestinian Authority (PA) and emphasizing a strategic connection between the Gaza war and broader Palestinian nationalist goals. The PA faces challenges due to a negative local image, with a majority of West Bank respondents supporting Hamas and various groups involved in local terrorist attacks. The PA's security role is crucial but could be jeopardized by the economic crisis, as it refuses tax revenue transfers. Despite criticism, preventing the collapse of the PA is deemed crucial for Israel to maintain stability and counter Hamas's influence in the West Bank.
