A Hamas-Israel agreement is still far from being finalized, with three key issues yet to be resolved. I discussed this last night on החדשות - N12. First, there’s disagreement over where exactly the IDF will withdraw from. Jerusalem’s current stance is that areas it captured during Operation Gideon’s Chariots... won’t be returned to Hamas, as doing so would prevent Israel from building the humanitarian zone in southern Gaza that will be free of both Hamas and weapons. Next is the Gaza Humanitarian Foundation. For Israel, the continuation of GHF operations during the ceasefire is crucial. Why? Because without it, the ceasefire will end up funding Hamas in the form of tens of thousands of aid trucks—the very thing that has enabled the terror group to survive 21 months of war. And finally, there’s the question of ending the war once and for all. As I’ve explained previously, Netanyahu’s coalition can likely stomach a 60-day ceasefire—but the prime minister will be harder pressed to garner enough support for a total end to the war. If Hamas remains steadfast in its demand for an end to the fighting—that may well prevent a deal from being struck. But there’s one more issue—at least on Hamas’ end. In Israel, we know that the elected government makes the ultimate decisions regarding the war. But in Gaza? It’s not entirely clear. During the first ceasefire, Hamas had Yahya Sinwar at the helm. During the second ceasefire, his brother was leading the group. But with both of them gone, along with much of Hamas’ senior leadership in the strip, it’s not clear who has the final say—and that complicates attempts to strike a final agreement, to say the least. As for Hamas’ internal debates, while the terror group recognizes the dire straits in which it finds itself, there’s disagreement over whether to let Israel remain in crucial areas such as the Morag Corridor, or to stand by the demand for a more widespread Israeli withdrawal. For now, at least, there’s nothing to suggest that the Gazan terror group is about to give in.show more

@N12News Stop the killing. How many more deaths will satisfy Netanyahu?

As has been the case for months, Netanyahus demands remain utterly confused and at odds with actually closing a deal: A “humanitarian zone” without any people in it? What exactly is that good for? What does Israel want to do with it if it’s an empty strip of land? Retaining GHF while also continuing the aid blockade for the rest of Gaza. Why would Hamas ever agree to a continuation of the blockade even during the ceasefire? How is that a remotely realistic demand?! No end to the war. Again, why would Hamas agree to give up half of the hostages for just a sixty day pause, just for the war to resume even more viciously afterwards? So three conditions that are either nonsensical or seem to be designed to be rejected. As if Netanyahu and his coalition actually do not want to do a deal at all… smh

🚨Trump’s deal to end the war in Gaza includes calls for the international committee to govern Gaza being established in the first stage of the deal in the 75% of territory Israel already captured in “Operation Gideon’s Chariots A” — even if Hamas objects. The territories Israel has occupied would be transferred to international control. There’s a discussion about dividing Gaza into provinces, meaning, let’s say southern Gaza goes to the UAE, and northern Gaza to Bahrain. It reminds me a bit of Berlin after World War II. There’s still a big question as to whether Turkey will be allowed a foothold here too. Israel, for one, strongly opposes it. Also, regarding Netanyahu’s apology for the assassination attempt in Doha, Qatar has already warned Hamas: “We cannot protect you from assassinations on our soil.” I don’t know if there was an Israeli commitment given, but the Qataris now seem to view Hamas as a problem, and prefer that Hamas moves to another Middle East capital.

Ceasefire now, people say. But what does that actually mean? So ceasefire is what we've had on October 6th and what we all want, obviously. But President Biden said it best. Ceasefire and a hostage deal, he said, is at the hands of Hamas. President Biden said that Israel put down a rational offer because Israel is a rational country. The problem is that Hamas is not a rational actor. It is a genocidal Jihadi terrorist organization that doesn't care about the lives of Palestinians. And people in the West have been yelling ceasefire now at the wrong side of this war. Hamas has rejected countless ceasefires. Hamas and Iran are not trying to build a better life for the Palestinian people. You have to understand what Hamas and Iran are doing right now is they're actively trying to inflame the entire Middle East right before the holy month of Ramadan, which as President Biden said is going to be very, very dangerous. And this is exactly what they are after. There is currently a multi-front war going on in Israel in which Israel is being attacked by Jihadi terrorists from all sides, all prompted, pushed, and sponsored by Iran. Hamas, according to what was published, said that they have Israel exactly where they want her. That means the international pressure is on Israel to stop the war so that Hamas can remain in power in Gaza. So if you're calling at Israel to ceasefire, you're doing the bidding of Hamas. Hamas does not want to ceasefire. They're going to do whatever it takes in order to maintain power, including hiding in the elaborated tunnel system that they build instead of building a Palestinian state and remain in power at the cost of Israeli children and Palestinian children. It's time to dehamasify Gaza. And next time you demand a ceasefire, just make sure you aim it at the right direction. As President Biden said, this is at the hands of Hamas.

Beware of journalists who present Hamas as “ready for a ceasefire” - as if it’s Israel that is standing in the way. Hamas started this brutal war - not Israel - and it’s Hamas that is standing in the way of peace.

🚨 GAZA: IDF PREPARING POSSIBLE NEW OFFENSIVE AGAINST HAMAS Four months into the ceasefire, Israeli defense officials say the IDF is preparing plans for a large-scale operation aimed at forcibly disarming Hamas, as leaders increasingly believe the terror group will not give up its weapons voluntarily. Key points: • IDF currently holds about 53% of Gaza, maintaining positions along the “Yellow Line.” • Hamas is reportedly testing Israeli defenses and rebuilding capabilities during the ceasefire. • The military says at least 60% of Hamas’s tunnel network may still be intact, with demolition efforts described as “endless.” • Any future operation could be broader and more intense than previous fighting, especially with no hostages believed to remain in Gaza. • Israel says demilitarizing Hamas remains a central war objective. For now, the ceasefire holds. But preparations suggest Israel is planning for the next phase if diplomacy fails. Stay connected, follow Mossad Commentary.

🚨JUST IN: Israeli PM Benjamin Netanyahu has rejected calls for a ceasefire, saying entering into such an agreement with Hamas would be a 'surrender to barbarism.' MY THOUGHTS: I agree, a ceasefire will benefit Hamas and may make it harder for Israel to eliminate the group. However, I don't think there is any scenario where Hamas will survive this war. In my opinion, their end is inevitable. With this in mind, Israel's goal is no longer simply 'eliminating Hamas', but instead 'eliminating Hamas with the least civilian casualties'. If a ceasefire allows more aid to arrive to those in need, allows people time to flee to the South, and maybe allows for camps be set up for the displaced, then a temporary ceasefire is the right thing to do.

🟢 Senior Hamas Official: U.S. Envoy ‘Fully Agreed’ to Hamas Ceasefire Proposal — Then Caved to Israeli Demands Hamas leader Mahmoud Mardawi told Al Jazeera Mubasher that U.S. envoy Steve Witkoff “fully agreed” to the framework to a ceasefire agreement that Hamas proposed — but later yielded to Israeli demands. He said Hamas would not have moved forward with the proposal if Witkoff had raised any objections while Hamas was drafting the document. The group maintains its demand for a permanent ceasefire, Israeli withdrawal from Gaza, unrestricted entry of aid, and guarantees of implementation of the ceasefire deal from the Trump administration — demands that Israel immediately rejected and the U.S. envoy Witkoff denounced as “unacceptable.” Here’s more of what Mardawi said: ➤ “The Israeli occupation wants to receive the captives on the first day of the truce without guarantees of implementation of the deal.” ➤ “We will not hand over the ten occupation captives without sufficient guarantees for a ceasefire.” ➤ “The occupation (Israel) circumvented the ceasefire proposal agreed to by the Resistance and the American mediator, in order to solve its internal political problems.” Source: Al Jazeera Mubasher

Hamas leadership has been living lavishly in Qatar while the people that they claim to represent in Gaza are suffering. They’ve been directing a war from the comfort of their five-star hotels for almost two years, refusing to release the 48 hostages that are still being held in Gaza. Today, Israeli officials announced that they took a targeted action against these Hamas leaders who have been terrorizing the region for years. This war in Gaza is brutal. It has to end. Palestinians are suffering, Israelis are suffering. The entire region is suffering. The people of Gaza, the Arab League, the US and Israel are all saying the same thing. Hamas must be removed from power. Inside Gaza, people are risking their lives to protest Hamas, and they’re being silenced, beaten, even killed on the streets. They know that Hamas is the reason Gaza is in ruin. They know that Hamas is the one who started the war, and Hamas is the reason that it hasn’t ended yet. And this has been Hamas’s plan all along, force Israel into a war it never wanted to fight, but has to win. Hamas spent years preparing the October 7th attack. They knew exactly what an urban war in a densely populated area would look like. They all went into hiding and left their people out to suffer. And these devastating consequences for the people of Gaza? That was a part of their strategy, to delegitimize Israel’s standing in the eyes of the world. They knew what they were doing, and Israel could not and still cannot allow these jihadists to live on its borders. No other nation would allow that. This is the linchpin of the entire conflict right now. Once Hamas is gone, the war ends, the suffering ends, and Gaza can finally rebuild. So today, Israel sent a message that there’s no safe place for terrorists anywhere on Earth, and we all need to stand together and say release the hostages, remove Hamas, end the war.

The Trump plan, which was presented at the White House, included two parts. What was approved today in Sharm el-Sheikh has nothing to do with the future. Regarding the future of Gaza, we are still at the initial idea, which was not translated into details on the ground — and it’s no coincidence, because the assessment, at least in Israel, is that it’s impossible to really reach agreements with Hamas on its dismantling. There has not yet been an Islamic fundamentalist terrorist organization that agreed one day to simply dismantle. And so what we have here is a hostage release deal, and Israel is at a fork in the road. First, if Hamas is willing to disarm, Israel will indeed withdraw to the Gaza perimeter. If not, then not — and then IDF forces will be there, because we have no one to rely on but God and them. Now regarding the main issue. After all, Hamas ostensibly received guarantees. That’s what Hamas is saying. That’s its excuse to release the hostages. It is replacing the 48 hostages with an American-Qatar-Turkish-international guarantee that Israel will not enter. They say in Israel, “no problem, we also have guarantees. The war will end if Hamas disarms.” So we see here two American guarantees, which I, in order not to be anti-American, will not say that they are foolish. I will say that they complement each other: the war will not be renewed if Hamas disarms. And so, if you break it down even more: That war is over. It’s over. The ground entries, the raids, the exits, the Gideon’s Chariots A, B and maybe even C. What will happen next? Israel expects it to be “Lebanonization,” but in the positive sense of what happens after the ceasefire. In other words, not ground raids, but precise damage to any attempt to build up and/or harm IDF soldiers. This is the Israeli desire. We’ll see what happens on the ground.

This video is the ultimate proof that there’s no war in the humanitarian zones of Gaza - there’s food, comfortable conditions, and security. The State of Israel sends the residents of Gaza to humanitarian zones to protect them, even though the Hamas terrorist organization is still trying to prevent them from moving to these zones so that they can continue using civilians as human shields. This is proof that Israel is not committing genocide, but rather the exact opposite. Israel is trying to save the residents of Gaza, and the terrorist organization Hamas is exploiting them and endangering their lives!

Trump’s proposal that was recently sent to Hamas includes a major change: all 48 hostages, living and dead, would be released on the deal’s first day, along with hundreds of Palestinian murderers and thousands of detainees. Israel would halt “Operation Gideon's Chariots B” to capture Gaza City and immediately start talks to end the war, under Trump’s personal supervision. As long as negotiations are ongoing, fighting won’t resume, with the president making the final call on this. Hamas was asked to trust Trump’s statements on ending the war and the assumption that if the hostages were home, Israel would lack both domestic and international legitimacy to continue fighting. Hamas’ delayed response suggests internal disagreement on how to proceed or at least how to phrase their “no.” Hamas’ biggest concern, as we’ve discussed often, is the fear that Gaza City will be captured. Both as a symbol, and the fear of ultimate defeat. For Hamas, defeat means the end of their organization and losing the war. Survival, regardless of the situation, is victory. Israel has been briefed and likely accepts the outline, if not beyond that, because we know that most American initiatives under Trump with Netanyahu and Ron Dermer are actually Israeli ideas in American packaging.

Hamas has handed over four caskets tonight to the International Red Cross in the Northern Gaza Strip, alleged to contain the remains of four hostages that were killed sometime in the last two years during or after October 7, 2023. Including the four bodies that were handed over yesterday by Hamas, this leaves the remains of at least twenty other hostages still in the possession of Hamas that need to be turned over to Israel before “Phase Two” of the ceasefire agreement can begin in Gaza. Officials and Palestinian sources have stated that this may take longer than would be preferred by both the U.S. and Israel, with it possible that Hamas does not currently know the location of all the deceased hostages throughout the Gaza Strip.

Hamas has broken the ceasefire agreement. They returned only the living hostages and some remains — not all of them. Now, under pressure from mediators and families, Hamas is being pushed to bring back the remains of those murdered in captivity. If they don’t, Israel will respond — starting with closing humanitarian aid into Gaza. Never forget: Hamas is a terrorist organization that seeks Israel’s destruction. Keep praying for the peace of Jerusalem. #Israel #Hostages #Jerusalem #MiddleEast #Ceasefire

Instead of treating the ill, Hamas uses hospitals for terrorism. This sick exploitation of the Gazan people must be stopped. The IDF is conducting a ground operation in Gaza to defeat Hamas and rescue our hostages. Israel is at war with Hamas, not with the civilians in Gaza.

Thoughts On The Ceasefire News Israel continued to hammer Gaza with military explosives on Thursday despite the announcement of the first stages of a ceasefire agreement with Hamas. Israel always does this. When normal people get a ceasefire agreement they think “Good, this means we can finally stop fighting and killing.” Whenever Israelis get a ceasefire agreement they go, “This means we have to hurry up and kill as many people as possible before it takes effect.” But it does appear that the killing and abuse will at least diminish for a time, which is an objectively good thing no matter how you slice it. The first stages of the agreement reportedly entail a partial withdrawal of IDF troops, Israel’s starvation blockade officially ending, humanitarian aid being allowed into the enclave, and both Israel and Hamas releasing captives and stopping the fighting. Drop Site News reports that according to Hamas sources, subsequent ceasefire phases will entail “No surrender, no disarming, no mass exile, but most of all a permanent end to the war.” It remains to be seen if there will be any movement toward a lasting ceasefire beyond the first stage. When an agreement was reached late last year it never made it beyond the first phase and then the Trumpanyahu administration declared a siege and resumed the killing. The far right members of the Netanyahu regime certainly seem like they don’t expect the ceasefire to hold. Israeli Finance Minister Bezalel Smotrich said in a statement that Israel has a “tremendous responsibility to ensure that this is not, God forbid, a deal of ‘hostages in exchange for stopping the war,’ as Hamas thinks and boasts,” and that “immediately after the hostages return home, the State of Israel will continue to strive with all its might for the true eradication of Hamas and the genuine disarmament of Gaza.” Israel’s National Security Minister Itamar Ben-Gvir issued similar remarks, saying that he and his Jewish Power party will use their leverage to dismantle the Netanyahu government if it “allows the continued existence of Hamas rule in Gaza.” Netanyahu himself has been studiously avoiding any talk of commitment to a lasting ceasefire, mostly limiting his public statements to the significance of freeing Israeli hostages. So there’s not a whole lot to feel optimistic about here. If the killing does stop on a lasting basis, it will be a pleasant surprise. If it does, we can only surmise that the US and Israel calculated that the worldwide PR crisis created by the genocide was getting too severe to sustain, which would be a win for all of us. Trump has gone on record to say that “Bibi took it very far and Israel lost a lot of support in the world. Now I am gonna get all that support back.” Either that, or they calculated that they’re going to need all their firepower for a planned war with Iran. Which would of course be terrible for everyone. We shall see. For now at least it will be nice for everyone to have a breather. If things really do calm down I’m going to do something I’ve never done in my entire writing career and try to take a full weekend off work to decompress. Focusing on a live-streamed genocide for two years takes a toll on the mind and body. Here’s hoping for a better future. Reading by Tim Foley:

Drop Site News reports that according to Hamas sources, subsequent ceasefire phases will entail “No surrender, no disarming, no mass exile, but most of all a permanent end to the war.” It remains to be seen if there will be any movement toward a lasting ceasefire beyond the first stage. When an agreement was reached late last year it never made it beyond the first phase and then the Trumpanyahu administration declared a siege and resumed the killing. The far right members of the Netanyahu regime certainly seem like they don’t expect the ceasefire to hold. Israeli Finance Minister Bezalel Smotrich said in a statement that Israel has a “tremendous responsibility to ensure that this is not, God forbid, a deal of ‘hostages in exchange for stopping the war,’ as Hamas thinks and boasts,” and that “immediately after the hostages return home, the State of Israel will continue to strive with all its might for the true eradication of Hamas and the genuine disarmament of Gaza.” Israel’s National Security Minister Itamar Ben-Gvir issued similar remarks, saying that he and his Jewish Power party will use their leverage to dismantle the Netanyahu government if it “allows the continued existence of Hamas rule in Gaza.” Netanyahu himself has been studiously avoiding any talk of commitment to a lasting ceasefire, mostly limiting his public statements to the significance of freeing Israeli hostages. So there’s not a whole lot to feel optimistic about here. If the killing does stop on a lasting basis, it will be a pleasant surprise. If it does, we can only surmise that the US and Israel calculated that the worldwide PR crisis created by the genocide was getting too severe to sustain, which would be a win for all of us. Trump has gone on record to say that “Bibi took it very far and Israel lost a lot of support in the world. Now I am gonna get all that support back.” Either that, or they calculated that they’re going to need all their firepower for a planned war with Iran. Which would of course be terrible for everyone. We shall see. For now at least it will be nice for everyone to have a breather. If things really do calm down I’m going to do something I’ve never done in my entire writing career and try to take a full weekend off work to decompress. Focusing on a live-streamed genocide for two years takes a toll on the mind and body. Here’s hoping for a better future. Reading by Tim Foley:

🚨Netanyahu, Trump and Rubio say they're seeking alternatives to free the hostages. Shortly I'll outline what I understand is being considered. But first: it's a completely coordinated move. Netanyahu, Trump, Rubio had a phone call revealing that Hamas, contrary to many reports (even here in Israel) is stalling talks, and as Trump and Witkoff have said, Hamas never wanted a deal in this round of talks. Hamas seems to think domestic and international pressure will force Israel to end the war. So Trump, Rubio, and Netanyahu are saying, in different words, that Israel's about to take new steps. Now, what could these steps be? It could be several things. One example: pressuring Hamas leadership abroad. Assassinations in Qatar. An American and Israeli demand to extradite Hamas leaders in Qatar, correctly claiming they committed war crimes against 1,200 Israelis, dozens of whom are also American. Second example: threats of land seizure or exile if Hamas doesn’t release hostages within a set timeframe. Other options are being considered, but Trump and Rubio are signaling that they're giving Israel a carte blanche for a major shift in the war. They see it's at an impasse due to the constant stop-start hostage release negotiations, and are claiming that Hamas is using this to prolong the war indefinitely and force Israel to end it on Hamas’ terms. There’s also confusion about what ending the war means. Everyone wants the war to end. The question is, what kind of ending? Even if Trump might be Netanyahu's puppet and if Rubio's clueless, senior officials from the previous government repeatedly said — despite their opposition to the current government — that Hamas was the main obstacle all along. This portrayal of Hamas wanting to end the war, and the cruel Israel, which for political reasons wants to war to go on forever is simply false. Hamas wants something that no Israeli leader, including opposition figures, is willing to accept. Hamas wants the war to end with a full IDF withdrawal from Gaza, without a single centimeter between Gaza and Israeli communities. Yair Lapid and Naftali Bennett previously spoke about remaining on the perimeter. That's great. I wish it were possible. Hamas simply doesn't agree. It seems to me that if this isn't merely a negotiation tactic to pressure Hamas and show American support for Israel, then we're heading towards a major turning point in this war.

What you call a ceasefire is completely different from what they call a ceasefire! The video attached is from #Gaza, today, a few hours after the ceasefire deal has taken effect. The Gazans are cheering #Hamas parades with a chant vowing to kill the Jews. They say: "Khaibar, Khaibar, O' Jews, Mohammad's Army will return [to kill you]." The people of Gaza were mercilessly used as human shields by the Hamas militants. Yet, they are now celebrating an illusionary victory with Hamas and are cursing Israel! This is hard for me to digest. Hamas is celebrating the #hostagedeal as a victory. Indeed, such a deal is a lifeline thrown to them. Now, they can get out of their tunnels, regroup, rearm, recruit more militants from among the people of Gaza, and then relaunch another attack on Israel in the future. I am excited about the release of the Israeli hostages and the end of the war in Gaza. However, I have zero trust for Hamas and its willingness to keep the ceasefire simply because there is no ceasefire in jihad. #حماس #إسرائيل #غزة #مصر #قطر #وقف_اطلاق_النار #Israel
