Didn't Netanyahu say just the other day that there'd be no ceasefire until his war goals in Palestine had been achieved?
And said it would be a minimum of nine months IIRC...
He initially agreed before Biden took the ceasefire public, then he backpedaled as you mentioned. He then agreed the following day.
https://www.jpost.com/israel-hamas-war/article-804653
Hamas proposed a permanent ceasefire in place of this agreement, and Israel declined. Now we’re back to waiting on Hamas to accept the temporary three-phase ceasefire with open negotiations for permanence.
It’s been tough to keep up on the order of events with news sources releasing articles at different times.
Bet?
What's different this time?
Yup. I'll believe it when I see Netanyahu's signature on it.
Bibi's word ain't shit. Even if he signs, I'm sure he'll still have "tactical" responses. Probably in and around aid. Or start shit in Lebanon and the West Bank.
I’d believe if they lock him up and convict the genocidal maniac for being a massive piece of shit,
Just for the next far-right shithead to take power in Israel.
One shit head at a time, unfortunately.
They’ll have leveled the entirety of Raffah, so now most/all of Gaza is almost uninhabitable. “I mean, we gonna bomb the rubble? Sure we’ll sign a cease fire. It never stopped us before”
We expect them to accept their own plan? Dude, fuck Israel at this point. This shouldn't be newsworthy, and yet it is, because of course there's a good chance they would reject their own plan in order to keep killing women and children.
Yeah, I'm gonna take any judgment on Israel from the same administration that keeps insisting that they're not committing genocide with about this much salt:
To borrow a phrase… “Oh you sweet summer child…”
The "pause" bullshit basically just means the genocide will continue after the hostages are handed over.
Amazing that Israel hasn't yet slaked their thirst for palestinian children's blood yet. Absolute insanity.

This feels like a fuckin merry-go-round. And everyone knows how it’s going to turn out. The US and/or Hamas will roughly agree on something that could lead to a truce, and then Bibi will throw it out the window for some made-up reason, or just because he’s feeling obstinate on that particular Tuesday.
Israel should never again be anything but a pariah state.
Fuck Israel.

Rules:
-
Rule 1: posts have the following requirements:
- Post news articles only
- Video links are NOT articles and will be removed.
- Title must match the article headline
- Not United States Internal News
- Recent (Past 30 Days)
- Screenshots/links to other social media sites (Twitter/X/Facebook/Youtube/reddit, etc.) are explicitly forbidden, as are link shorteners.
-
Rule 2: Do not copy the entire article into your post. The key points in 1-2 paragraphs is allowed (even encouraged!), but large segments of articles posted in the body will result in the post being removed. If you have to stop and think "Is this fair use?", it probably isn't. Archive links, especially the ones created on link submission, are absolutely allowed but those that avoid paywalls are not.
-
Rule 3: Opinions articles, or Articles based on misinformation/propaganda may be removed. Sources that have a Low or Very Low factual reporting rating or MBFC Credibility Rating may be removed.
-
Rule 4: Posts or comments that are homophobic, transphobic, racist, sexist, anti-religious, or ableist will be removed. “Ironic” prejudice is just prejudiced.
-
Posts and comments must abide by the lemmy.world terms of service UPDATED AS OF 10/19
-
Rule 5: Keep it civil. It's OK to say the subject of an article is behaving like a (pejorative, pejorative). It's NOT OK to say another USER is (pejorative). Strong language is fine, just not directed at other members. Engage in good-faith and with respect! This includes accusing another user of being a bot or paid actor. Trolling is uncivil and is grounds for removal and/or a community ban.
Similarly, if you see posts along these lines, do not engage. Report them, block them, and live a happier life than they do. We see too many slapfights that boil down to "Mom! He's bugging me!" and "I'm not touching you!" Going forward, slapfights will result in removed comments and temp bans to cool off.
-
Rule 6: Memes, spam, other low effort posting, reposts, misinformation, advocating violence, off-topic, trolling, offensive, regarding the moderators or meta in content may be removed at any time.
-
Rule 7: We didn't USED to need a rule about how many posts one could make in a day, then someone posted NINETEEN articles in a single day. Not comments, FULL ARTICLES. If you're posting more than say, 10 or so, consider going outside and touching grass. We reserve the right to limit over-posting so a single user does not dominate the front page.
We ask that the users report any comment or post that violate the rules, to use critical thinking when reading, posting or commenting. Users that post off-topic spam, advocate violence, have multiple comments or posts removed, weaponize reports or violate the code of conduct will be banned.
All posts and comments will be reviewed on a case-by-case basis. This means that some content that violates the rules may be allowed, while other content that does not violate the rules may be removed. The moderators retain the right to remove any content and ban users.
