Weird timing. I wonder what that's all about.
I am guessing that once Israel gets all the remaining hostages back war will resume, with a vengeance!
Weird?, not really.
President-elect Donald Trump warned that if the hostages whom Hamas is still holding in Gaza are not released by his inauguration on January 20, “all hell will break out in the Middle East” – offering one more stark indication of how much the incoming president would prefer to avoid inheriting the Israel-Hamas war as he prepares to take office in less than two weeks.
“It will not be good for Hamas and it will not be good, frankly, for anyone. All hell will break out. I don’t have to say anymore, but that’s what it is,” Trump said in remarks at his Mar-a-Lago estate in Florida on Tuesday, adding that “there should have never been” the October 7, 2023, attack by Hamas on Israel.
It will only take some breakaway militant to lob a couple of rockets into Israel to kick it all off again.Only if they're attacked.
Probably because those who prefer not to be genocidal apologists can see where this is heading yet againStrange, still no mention on the Zion thread. It's almost as if the regulars on there are disappointed.
And is the state of israel going to finally accede to a two state solution?
And yet the Palestinians agreed to a two state solution based on the internationally recognised 1967 borders...More to the point will the Palestinians accept a two state solution. They rejected it in 1937 (Peel commission), they rejected it in 1947 (UN resolution 181) and Yasser Arafat rejected it twice in the build up to the Oslo Accords.
