Israel’s Cabinet has approved a cease-fire deal with the Hamas militant group that would bring a temporary halt to a devastating war now in its seventh week. The Israeli government said that under the deal, Hamas is to free at least 50 of the roughly 240 hostages it is holding in the Gaza Strip over a four-day period.
So literally the entire time so many people were getting all pissed Biden wasn't calling for a cease fire, he was working to get a cease fire, and he actually got it, and didn't slip up one time to stick it to some reporter he hates.
I definitely would have spilled the beans and ruined everything.
He didn't. He got a 5-day pause. We'll see if he can extend it to a real ceasefire, but if after four days Palestinians continue getting bombed all criticism against him will still be valid.
People calling for ceasefire have been continually dismissed and told only a pause is possible. Now that Bidens support is tanking there is at least a pause. We'll see what happens in 4 days,
Yeah, there should have been continous condemnation of Hamas and stronger pressure on them to release all the hostages. Even after this deal, there are another 190 that may still be alive in Hamas's cruel hands.
What? The whole point of having hostages was to negotiate for a ceasefire after the operation. It's Israel who didn't take rescuing hostages seriously (preferring to bomb them to death instead).
