My gut says something’s off. There had to be a back room deal.
Of course, Israel is just taking a break to please Trump. After recovering the hostages the USA will send more weapons to resume the genocide.
Lets hope some good comes of this but I am 99% sure isisrael will break it in the first days.
Some people are calling trump the real harm reduction candidate
That’s assuming this deal goes through and the ceasefire isn’t violated by the entity.
Forgive me for being pessimistic, but I highly doubt that the entity will follow through with this ceasefire. That’s also assuming the ceasefire is permanent, which I also doubt.
Basically I wouldn’t be celebrating this now. It’s best to wait and see where this actually goes.
My personal theories are
-
This is a show to be played to make Trump look good. At the very least he will take credit. Hiss brainless supporters will lose attention pretty quick then the genocide starts back up and they are too angry about gay, black, Chinese, etc. people existing to care about it.
-
The US is overtaxed and need to pull back so it can focus on South America with the recent stuff about Venezuela and Nicaragua. They don’t have the ability to do both that and Israel. Ukraine is already yesterday’s news to them at this point so something else has to go.
i feel like you nailed it, its all just a performance to make trump look good. The zionists will keep bombing and shooting Palestinians indiscriminately but media won’t be reporting anything.
I feel like it’s the latter and Trump may want to either focus on Latin America or Asia to get to China.
Trump obviously doesn’t give a shit about Palestinians but the arms/cash flow towards the Zionists is probably hampering other plans.
-
Hope for the best, plan for the worst. We can be hopeful that this is a good deal that won’t immediately be violated but we definitely need to be ready for this to go south immediately and be violated by Isntreal.
It’ll definitely at some point, sooner or later, be violated by the Zionist entity.
But this is still far more than what Biden was able or cared to do.
Wait a second, Trump isn’t President
From what I’ve heard the political pressure placed on Israel to agree to a ceasefire came from the Trump team - he wanted a ceasefire to be in place before he became president. That’s why it’s agreed for Sunday before his inauguration on Monday.
From what I heard, the political pressure came from Hamas, which was winning the war.
Therefore, Trump had nothing to do with it.
I don’t know about that. I doubt this would’ve happened at this time if Kamala Harris won. Palestinians have been hurt so much by the Zionist entity and Trump made a big thing about himself supposedly promoting peace in his campaign, so this might be to placate some of his supporters in the US.
Hamas was never going to be 100% defeated and Netanyahu has wanted to drag the war out for a while.
I don’t know if ‘Israel’ is going to fully honour the deal or not. Reading through it, it seems as though they have room to maintain some form of increased occupation of the Gaza Strip. I really hope that Hamas haven’t agreed to a permanent veiled/obfuscated Israeli occupation of the Netzarim and Philadelphi corridors but unfortunately that is what I suspect might be the case. But I am glad that Palestinians will be able to leave Zionist concentration camps.
I’ve seen no one call Trump the harm reduction candidate.
I don’t trust it. Maybe there’s a catch?
But then again, Israel wasn’t close to winning the war.
Maybe now that they have more land in Syria, they can “bow out” and say that they “won” something.
Hamas is only stronger now; more recruits have replaced all the depleted numbers.
The “safe zones” for the IDF were repeatedly bombed. Why is that?
I think they lost ground.
