Gaza ceasefire will be six-weeks, with three hostages released per week: Report
The looming ceasefire in the Gaza Strip will last six weeks, with Hamas releasing three hostages every week, according to Reuters.
Hamas will release female hostages and those under 19 years old first, followed by men over 50.
Israel will release thirty Palestinian prisoners for each hostage released and fifty for each Israeli female soldier.
Hamas will release a total of 33 hostages during the first phase, including all women (including soldiers), children, and men over 50.
You're viewing a single thread.
Fuck Biden for not making this happen right away. There is now evidence in the polling that people stayed home because of Biden enabling this Nazi style extermination.
I stayed home because establishment democrats do not represent the interests of the working class.
Reminds me of jimmy carter and the iran hostage crisis.
Reagan paid the Iranians to hold the hostages til after the election.
There is now also evidence that staying home and not voting Democrat was the correct choice to stop the genocide.
I don't know why this is getting downvoted because the current implication that everyone is reporting is that Trump's administration was involved in this ceasfire deal in some capacity.
You could maybe argue that perhaps Biden leveraged the threat of Trump continuing to support Israel which would prevent any ceasfire deal after he takes over. But then it doesn't seem to match the Israeli response, especially those who did not want a ceasfire. Why would Biden be able to suddenly strongarm Israel on his last few days in office?
The other option is that Trump for whatever reason did not value continuing to supply Israel with arms similar to how he's about to drop Ukraine. Netanyahu sees value in negotiating it under Biden to get the most he can out of it before Trump takes over. But then his former lobbying for Trump doesn't make sense.
Could also have just been pressure on Hamas that they perceived which caused them to cave in, since the agreement isn't exactly permanent, nor does it address the wider issues of who will eventually control Gaza.
Israeli newspapers are crediting Trump for it
Trump's Mideast Envoy Forced Netanyahu to Accept a Gaza Plan He Repeatedly Rejected
I thought Trump was gonna ramp it up and nuke the entirety of Gaza and the West Bank on day one, tho?
Don't get me wrong, death to America regardless of the septuagenarian in the hot seat, but y'all need to pick a lane lol
Flailing
Incoherent
Not really the same situation, is it? Was Jimmy Carter sending Iran billions of dollars in weapons while also claiming he was attempting to get the hostages released? Do you have evidence that Israel was working with the Trump campaign to delay a ceasefire? When Reagan was campaigning against Jimmy Carter, was he making claims that Iran should kill all of the hostages?
Because the reporting seems to indicate that Trump's people simply put pressure on Israel and now this is the result.
Sure doesn't sound like they were working together, moreso that Trump was willing to put pressure where Biden was not. I say this as someone who loathes Trump.
Israel delayed stopping their Genocide by 1.5 years especially for Trump.
Luckily Biden kept topping up those 2000 pound bombs Israel would have ran out of like 50 times by now.
