Maybe HAMAS will cooperate, but . . . .
how about Israel-backed militia groups and settlors who intend to finish annexing The West Bank and Gaza? That smacks of conflict and war.

The ONLY way this works is if Arab countries flood the area with THEIR troops; who speak the language, know the traditions, the way of life, etc. And it will be up to THEM to keep the peace by FORCE. Because FORCE is the only thing Hamas & their ilk understand.

(111,897 posts)That the remaining hostages were released is tremendous. I'm very pleased, but now I see everything moving BEHIND the SCENES to ensure the remaining Gaza civilian population is permanently displaced--allowing the intent Trump, Jared, and former PM Tony Blair had been cooking up all along, dating back more than a decade it would appear. Seriously, does anyone remember the FIRST time Trump commented on the beauty of Gaza's shoreline and what a tremendous development opportunity it would afford?
So, now under the" beautiful, bright clouds" of MSM reporting here and in Israel- covering nothing but this success (sans much if any discussion of what happens or what is likely to happen next), my cynicism rises to the top unobscured. Good for the hostage families. Likely horrific for the people of Gaza and their continued suffering.

and some people want one state, some people want two states - this is about rebuilding Gaza. Do you want more deaths.
He does not know the difference between a cease fire and a peace plan.
I will never understand why people take this unserious ignorant vulgarian seriously.

(52,925 posts)it seems to have been forgotten that during Biden's term 7 times that number were released. Hamas has now put itself back in charge of Gaza again and has already started executing people. So, it's all back to square one only worse since buildings and infrastructure are gone.

it isnt really the Gaza ceasefire agreement doing it. Its that multiple Arab countries say that theyre backing the plan.
I suspect that Israel knows this and that they wont continue to back it if they try to expand beyond what they currently control
