    Just have to give them a few more months to continue bombing hospitals and schools and any and every building. Once they do that, a cease fire is possible.

    Must be one of those magical moving lines like Biden’s Israel red line

    I’m not a big sports fan, but I know enough about football to know that ‘inside the 10-yard line’ sometimes turns into a touchdown for the opposite team.

      That would be like a 90+ yard pick six or an insane fumble recovery. Pretty rare, just sayin

    Ok, let’s say the ceasefire deal does exist and is “inside the 10-yard line”. Is it going to be another Camp David and kick the can down the road until we have another round of murder, or are there provisions about a international peacekeeping force and a credible path to Palestinian state hood?

    I initially misread it as “ten-year” line and just accepted defeatedly at first.

    Remember when the US was opening a port to provide aid to Gaza and we just had to wait for that and then they finished and then Israel blocked the aid like they did with everyone else and the US said “Oh well” and packed it up after accomplishing jack shit?

    They’re just just trying to make it look like something is happening, just stalling for time indefinitely, constantly saying stuff is right around the corner while delivering on jack shit (except unconditional military aid to Israel). Anyone still buying this crap is a grade-A sucker.

      You mean when they built a pier unable to withstand the famously stormy seas of the Mediterranean on the Mediterranean coast at the cost of tens of millions of taxpayer dollars? Yes, I remember.

      Yep, once I realized how completely bankrupt liberals are, their behavior makes perfect sense.

      They really are just blue MAGA, nothing more. They don’t believe in anything, they don’t give a shit about anyone else than themselves and their cushy little lives.

      Just look at the liberal discourse on lemmy, all they do is hysterically scream about the great evil and how genocide is perfectly fine, how we must stop project 2025.

      Meanwhile, Dems have said nothing about how this will actually happen other than…… ???

    I assume Netanyahu has already gotten his paint out to move the endzone.

    It’s kind of obnoxious people continue to put up with him when he’s actively famous for dicking around and playing with every partner, coalition or international.
