Give the Palestinians the rights they deserve, stop oppressing them and Hamas magically disappears.

There's just no guarantee for that specific outcome.

Look what happened with the withdrawal from Afghanistan. Nominally, the Taliban were fighting the Western oppressors. But when U.S. troops left, the Taliban didn't just magically disappear.

For that matter, look at Saudi Arabia or Iran or Qatar or Dubai or Abu Dhabi. They're essentially doing the exact same thing as the Taliban, just with a lot more money. No outside oppressor there.

Given that Hamas shares a lot of the same ideology when it comes to ruling Gaza, what makes you believe they would just magically disappear? Why wouldn't Hamas want to rule Gaza like the Taliban rule Afghanistan, or like the House of Saud rules Saudi Arabia?
