It\u2019s not good for Israel; it\u2019s not good for the Israeli people.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>\u201cOne of the conversations that Secretary (Antony) Blinken has been having in the region is what does post-conflict Gaza look like? What does governance look like in Gaza? Because whatever it is, it can\u2019t be what it was on October 6. It can\u2019t be Hamas,\u201d Kirby added.<\/p>\n<p>The words of caution came after Netanyahu said Israel would need to oversee the security of the Gaza Strip once the fighting is over to prevent future attacks.<\/p>\n<p>The White House\u2019s latest warning comes after Netanyahu told ABC News on Monday that Gaza should be governed by \u201cthose who don\u2019t want to continue the way of Hamas\u201d before adding, \u201cI think Israel will, for an indefinite period, have the overall security responsibility because we\u2019ve seen what happens when we don\u2019t have it.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Biden in an interview with CBS\u2019 \u201c60 Minutes\u201d last month said it would be a \u201cbig mistake\u201d for Israel to occupy Gaza.
