I doubt Netanyahu will agree. As soon as the war stops, he’ll face corruption charges. On top of that he wants the genocide.
I don’t see how this is even particularly generous. It’s a 40 day slowdown in genocide and an agreement for Hamas to release prisoners in exchange for Israel temporarily releasing hostages that historically they just re-abduct within days anyways. And then after 40 days it’s full speed ahead of civilian slaughter again, probably with a freshly regrouped and re-armed IOF.
You’re looking at this wrong – neither Bibi’s government or Hamas care about Palestinian deaths.
Hamas very much cares about Palestinian deaths. Which is why a 40 day ceasefire and then more Genocide is pointless.
Most unhinged comment
If by unhinged, you mean logical and accurate, then yes.
Since the Battle of Gaza in 2007, Hamas has used Palestinians as human shields, turned their hospitals and schools into war zones by shooting rockets from rooftops, and are currently stealing humanitarian aid and selling it to the Palestinians at extortionate prices. You honestly can’t be serious.
Edit: NATO has documented multiple violations of the Geneva Convention by Hamas putting innocent civilians in harms way, as stated above. Neither the IDF nor Hamas care to protect Palestinians.

This is just a pile of Israeli propaganda to discredit Hamas. None of it is specific or quantifiable, because anything specific would be disproven. Every hospital Israel lays siege to they claim is a Hamas command center, until it’s in ruins and they don’t find any supporting evidence. They whine about “human shields”, but the reality is that they live in an extremely dense territory with no real way to fully separate military and civilian uses, unlike Israel which does have the space but chooses to put military installations in residential areas anyways, just like how they put settlers on occupied, stolen Palestinian land.

Confirmed by the use of human shields?
Your source starts with Israel says and you’re calling others spreading propaganda???
Not only that, if they actually read the article, it’s just vague accusations from Israel and NATO, absolutely nothing specific, followed by a bunch of analysis that shows the claims are inaccurate and intentionally misleading.
Would you prefer NATO?

Much better than Israel says, but still showing neither care about civilians.
Still doesn’t give them the right to kill civilians

I’m not defending Israel, or criticizing Palestinians. I’m criticizing the comment that Hamas cares about Palestinian lives while there’s documentation of them putting them directly in harms way according to the Geneva Convention.
Israel temporarily releasing hostages that historically they just re-abduct within days
Can you explain this or link something? I know Israel imprisoning Palestinians for years without charges is monstrous but I haven’t heard of them doing this after prisoner exchanges.
I could have worded it better. I’m not necessarily saying that Israel will re-abduct the exact same Palestinians within a few days, but rather than Israel is constantly taking hostages. Israel could agree to release 100 hostages, but what’s the point when they’ll end up abducting 200 more the following week. It’s why prisoner swaps with Israel heavily favor Israel, they see hostages as a renewable ressource.
Oh I see. I wonder if they increase arrests after prisoner exchanges, I’ll have to look up the numbers if they’re available. I see your point though Israel is constantly imprisoning more people so the exchanges aren’t exactly equivalent. The difference between hostage and prisoner is complicated though, it’s basically just the accusation of some crime, Hamas doesn’t really claim the people they take have done any specific crime but most of the time Israel doesn’t either because they hold people without charges so it is very similar.
An article telling us about the extraordinarily generous offer should include what the terms are in a bullet list…
The idea is to generate anti-Palestinian outrage while hiding details that could allow individuals to understand or make their own considerations.
It’s the Washington Examiner. It’s just barely not a tabloid.
Apart from anything else, you know this is a bad deal because David Cameron likes it.
A 40 day ceasefire… The original offer was 6 weeks… That’s 42 days…
There is no point for Hamas to engage with any of these fake ceasefire deals. Either a permanent ceasefire is offered or it’s pointless.
The Biden Propaganda train is off the charts.
Biden doesn’t know his arse from his elbow, he just says what the Neocons in the CIA tell him to
I don’t fucking know that ‘generous’ is the right word, considering both the terms and the fact that this situation is from Israel pursuing genocide.
But I also don’t know how much better they can get in their position.
Gods only know what the strategically wise choice is here.
The depressing alliteration of the day: generous genocide
surely leaflets will be dropped of incoming artillery fire and distribution of aid to civilians and helping the ones injured , in a genocide

They’d have to be stupid to take this deal lol
If I was in politics or was looking to get into politics in the future, I would be trying to get arrested publicly for this. Look at the people who got arrested during the civil rights movement.
If I was Hamas I would give Israel the finger and laugh at them. This is not an offer in good faith.
Biden is worried about the optics of the genocide he is fully supporting, but he isn’t really doing a damn thing to stop it.
Biden was just barely going to be able to eek out a win under the best of circumstances before this started, now however I don’t think he can win the election, specifically because of his full gung ho support for this genocide.
And the fact that he is calling the protestors anti semites is completely laughable.
Biden isn’t going to take any real concrete discernible action to stop a literal genocide and that is going to cost him this election.
And whoever wins the election is also going to support the genocide. But I guess if Trump wins it will be the biggest genocide, the best genocide. Everyone will be saying it.
(From Hamas’ point of view the only acceptable compromise is a total end of the hostilities on both sides. Any temporary solution will only allow Israel to continue the genocide after the 40 days)
