Hamas’s theatrical projection of confidence carries with it risks: Marwan Bishara
Al Jazeera’s senior political analyst Marwan Bishara highlights the intense emotional and psychological dimensions surrounding the ongoing conflict. He emphasizes the stark contrast between public emotions—ranging from joy and relief to anger and despair—amid the release of captives on both sides. Bishara also suggests that beyond the emotional outpouring, there is a calculated strategic element at play, with both Israel and Hamas engaging in psychological warfare. Hamas seeks to project an image of resilience and defiance, while Israel underscores the necessity of its actions despite the broader implications. He further notes that such displays of power risk escalating tensions, potentially provoking further responses. Ultimately, Bishara reflects on the remarkable endurance of Hamas, as it continues to operate despite relentless Israeli military pressure.
