There's no way Israel agrees after turning this deal down so many times
Apparently, Israel just offered this deal to Hamas.
From that link:
So there's at least some acknowledgement that Biden didn't just make it all up....
On the other hand, that last sentence makes it clear that Netanyahu wants this to be a non-starter. His terms involve Hamas choosing to cease to exist, for all intents and purposes.
Fellahs, is it far left to be against genocide now?
Hope no random bureaucrat interferes this time

And yet no word from the Israeli government.
Ugh hate how BBC allows links then doesn't actually give a link where you ask it for one.
An Israeli ceasefire proposal, announced to the world by an American president, came at a time when Israel’s politicians are usually silenced by the start of the Jewish Sabbath.
No mention of the Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu.
President Biden has set out a ceasefire deal that contains three phases, and which would lead to, in his words, “a cessation of hostilities, permanently".
Until now the Israeli prime minister has refused to accept any proposal that agreed to the end of the war. His far-right coalition partners have also threatened to walk out, and thus bring the government down, if Netanyahu concedes to a permanent ceasefire.
For its part Hamas has refused to agree to release Israeli hostages, in exchange for a ceasefire and the release of Palestinian prisoners, unless such a deal would lead to “a sustainable long period of calm”.
However, Hamas yesterday appeared to reject the Israeli offer that was presented to it by Qatari mediators.
**This evening, a Palestinian official familiar with the negotiations who has seen the new Israeli proposal, said that the document did not include a guarantee that the war will end nor that Israeli troops would completely withdraw from Gaza. **
Their take is obviously to finally retrieve some maybe most hostages, then discuss phase 2/3 with bombs, less restraint needed without hostages. Bibi is never gonna end this war.
Amazingly he basically already tanked it
Netanyahu releases statement A statement has just been released from Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu's office.
It says he has authorised the Israeli negotiating team to "present an outline" for achieving the release of all hostages.
However, the statements goes on to say the war in Gaza will not end until all goals - including the "elimination" of Hamas's armed wing and organisational capacities - are achieved.
I t continues: "The exact outline proposed by Israel, including the conditional transition from stage to stage, allows Israel to maintain these principles."
Sounds like they already rejected their own deal
Dear Hamas, ok to negotiate as long as you all die in the end.
Ending the Gaza war: Three phase proposal PHASE ONE
It would begin with a six-week ceasefire, during which the IDF would withdraw from populated areas of Gaza Hamas would release "a number" of hostages - including women, the elderly and the wounded - in exchange for hundreds of Palestinian prisoners. Some remains of dead Israeli hostages would be returned to their families Palestinian civilians would return to their homes in all areas of Gaza Humanitarian assistance would "surge", with 600 trucks a day entering the strip, and hundreds of thousands of temporary housing units sent by the international community During that six week period, negotiations mediated by the US and Qatar would continue. If successful, the next part of the plan would begin.
PHASE TWO
Release of all remaining living hostages, including male soldiers Full withdrawal of Israeli forces from Gaza The ceasefire would be upgraded to the "cessation of hostilities permanently" PHASE THREE
Any final remains of Israeli hostages in Gaza would be returned A "major reconstruction plan" for Gaza would commence, including US and international assistance to rebuild homes, schools and hospitals
So in the end America is footing the bill for Israel's destruction?
America is Israel's bitch after all
To destroy and rebuild! :/
