What to do if you can’t get a bona fide ceasefire? Make one up! From Mike Whitney at unz.com:
Biden: Israel is offering a ceasefire.
Israel: We’re not.
Biden: I negotiated this ceasefire
Israel: There’s no ceasefire agreement.
Biden: The ceasefire will begin soon.
Israel: It won’t.
Rinse and repeat. @Pimso B
The Biden administration’s ceasefire resolution is a cynical fraud aimed at airbrushing Israel’s tattered image while laying the groundwork for the final expulsion of the Palestinian people. In truth, there won’t be a ceasefire because Netanyahu and his entire cabinet are adamantly opposed to ending the hostilities. There’s not even any gray area here. After the US-drafted resolution was passed on Monday, the Israeli Prime Minister’s Office delivered a terse statement saying the following:
“The claim that Israel agreed to end the war before achieving all its goals is a total lie,” says the PMO….
The full document, argues Netanyahu’s office, would show that “Israel will not end the war until all its conditions are met — that is, fighting until Hamas is eliminated, returning all of our hostages, and ensuring that Gaza never again represents a threat to Israel.” (Times of Israel)
Repeat: “Israel will not end the war until all its conditions are met — (and) until Hamas is eliminated.”
So, what was the point of pushing through a ceasefire resolution when it had zero chance of being implemented? Was it just a publicity stunt?

They [Israel] will reject all peace deals, even ones that they come up with, kind of like Zelensky having a peace summit with himself as Vlad brings up the Uke constitution and presidential terms.
Some kind of clown kabuki this RF is not invited while in the fields the bodies and gear burning and the Russians are coming.
Gaza is a kill em’ all land/resources grab using 10/7 as the excuse.
