Bro I don't think Israel wants peace. It wants the Gaza strip and the rest of Palestine too.
Of course not, but Biden admin is panicking because if the Israeli's keep this going eventually the de facto regional war that is going on will become a de jure one.
They are pretty much begging Isreal to not erode any more of their legitimacy in the middle east and globally. It is not working.
Didn't they release a document this week being like "Yeah we want all Palestinians to get the fuck out of Israel, they can go to Canada or some shit"?
I mean it's no surprise. They have never been subtle about their genocidal intentions.
Biden's positioning himself to be an "ally to Israel" but not to Bibi. Bibi's a sinking ship. They don't actually care about anyone in Gaza though.
Israel never wanted peace, only genocide. Sad they wish to eradicate all others.
Israel doesn't want piece, they want the whole thing.
Here is a list of peace offers which would grant the Palestinians a country of their own, they refused all of them
1937 - Peel commission, rejected
1947 - Partition resolution, rejected
2000 - Camp David, rejected
2001 - Taba, rejected. Arafat starts the second intifada and a year later changes his mind.
2008 - Olmert offer, rejected
Hamas have tried to agree to boundaries Despite media attempts to portray it as a new Hamas charter, it is not. The new ‘policy document’ accepts the creation of a Palestinian state in 1967 borders, but still rejects Israel and claims its territory. https://www.bbc.com/news/world-middle-east-39775103
Here are some other noteworthy peace meeting or proposals from Israel to the rest if the Arab world, which were rejected
1919: Arabs of Palestine refused nominate representatives to the Paris Peace Conference.

So maybe your saying they had this coming?
Unfortunately the populas still believes in Press declaration and official statements. while what is being discussed and agreed behind the curtains is the Total opposite of that.
This is the best summary I could come up with:
TEL AVIV (AP) — U.S. Secretary of State Antony Blinken warned Israel on Friday that it risks destroying an eventual possibility for peace unless it acts swiftly to improve humanitarian conditions in Gaza for Palestinian civilians as it intensifies its war against Hamas.
“There will be no partners for peace if they’re consumed by humanitarian catastrophe and alienated by any perceived indifference to their plight,” Blinken said, even as the call for a temporary pause without the release by Hamas of Israeli hostages was swiftly rejected by Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu, who said Israel would be “going with full steam ahead.”
The comments to reporters in Tel Aviv, following meetings with Netanyahu and other senior officials, amounted to some of the Biden administration’s strongest warnings to Israel since the brutal Oct. 7 rampage by Hamas that killed more than 1,400 civilians and soldiers.
He described being moved by additional video he’d been shown in Israel by the Hamas militants who carried out the attacks, including a father killed in front of his young children.
In his first public speech since the war began, Hezbollah leader Hassan Nasrallah said his group had “entered the battle” with the past weeks’ unprecedented cross-border fighting.
But the complexity of the situation — and of Blinken’s push for Israel to consider a pause — was laid bare on Friday when Netanyahu, after leaving the meeting with the American official, ruled out the possibility of a cease-fire “that doesn’t include a return of our hostages,” referring to some 240 people Hamas abducted during its attack.
The original article contains 698 words, the summary contains 259 words. Saved 63%. I'm a bot and I'm open source!
Transltion: Bad, isreal! Now would you please be so kind to make the genocide less horrendous?
from the article:
“There will be no partners for peace if they’re consumed by humanitarian catastrophe and alienated by any perceived indifference to their plight,” Blinken said, even as the call for a temporary pause without the release by Hamas of Israeli hostages was swiftly rejected by Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu, who said Israel would be “going with full steam ahead.”
Well that's the end of that antisemites career. Good riddance. Be a shame if somebody doxxed his home address. /S
Edit: Crap, I keep forgetting to add /s
Hamas could begin by releasing, for civilian humanitarian use, the fuel and supplies they have previously stolen from hospitals and aid groups.
Israel could begin by not bombing internationally recognized medivac convoys an hour ago? Since they're the ones doing all the killing at the moment why don't we start there?
Edit: also, was that you just justifying collective punishment, a literal war crime? It's so common now, I almost completely brushed over it.
I saw the (scumbag asshole) Israeli spokesman Mark Regev on the news, he literally tried to make out that the ambulances were Hamas. He said something like "We've seen them build infrastructure underneath hospitals, is it hard to believe they would use ambulances too?"
Edit: The clip in question: https://youtu.be/m88g6POq-MA?t=1400
Channel 4 have really been on point throughout all this. Asking difficult questions from the start, and I've even seen some things on their programs before I've seen them online (not that I have my finger right on the pulse, but still).
Edit2: The whole segment is really worth a watch tbh. I saw bits I'd missed earlier when it was live. In particular, the observation that, while there have been large protests in Arab nations, they're perhaps not as big as protests in the past and in fact there have in some cases been even larger protests in Western countries.
Your source literally does not identify that as an identified or even unidentified aid convoy. You have posted disinformation on other topical posts and I'm starting to think that you are working on behalf of a state level actor.
Folks, before you elevate posts that conform to your biases, at least validate that they are true.
Why won’t Israel let civilians cross the border to avoid civilian casualties? They have 300,000 soldiers, they can guard a refugee camp
