This has always been the plan.
“if a ceasefire agreement with Hamas is not reached”
Be honest, he’s going to do it regardless of any agreement.
This headline could literally be a decade old. Much older still if you replace “Netanyahu” with “Prime Minister of Israel”.
Israel has always been a colonialist apartheid state and has never and will never be content with any Palestinian land or indeed people existing.
Netanyahu has stated that Israel will move to annex parts of the Gaza Strip if a ceasefire agreement with Hamas is not reached
Soo, this basically is a guarantee that no actual cease fire will ever happen…
It’s still upsetting that the west in general still fails to challenge the government of Israel’s narrative when it comes to any “cease fire”. First of all, a cease fire generally implies that both sides are still engaged in hostilities. When in reality a cease fire in this scenario is more of the offer of the cessation of a genocide, which they could do unilaterally at anytime.
Secondly, there was already a “cease fire” deal where Hamas returned hostages and Israel failed to stop hostilities and never released their hostages. There is no reason to assume Israel is ever going to negotiate with any sort of good faith, and it should be called out to by anyone within reaching distance of a microphone.
The west didn’t fail, in large part they are willingfully supporting israel genocide
I mean, I would consider that a failure at very least in general ethics.
Failures are not intentionals
Eh, it’s a matter of perspective. I doubt even hardcore Zionist would claim to be lacking in ethics.
The leaders of the civilized world (so-called) should jointly announce that any annexation will never be recognized and will lead to crippling sanctions. Same goes for continuing the genocide.
considering all the international resolutions and breaches of international law by Israel for almost all of its existence, the crippling sanctions are welcomed any time now.
And Kamala has done nothing to prevent it???one
The protest votes worked, Gaza is saved! /s
