Israel and Hamas Agree to Ceasefire

Israel needs to send all of these people back to Jordon and bulldoze the entirety of the Gaza Strip. 3,000 rockets? Saudi Arabia flew 4 planes into buildings and we invaded Afghanistan and Iraq for two decades. Israel is being far to soft handed.

Even with the ceasefire Israel is still attacking civilians.

Not sure if I can be optimistic about the cease fire. How long have they been fighting in this area? Seems like my whole life time.

Any stoppage in war is an optimistic sign. However, if both sides do not give up grudges then no lasting peace will occur.

Palestinians would suffer far fewer civilian casualties if HAMAS did not hide among civilians. They could care less about Palestinian neighbors & use dead Palestinians as props. Israelis build shelters; Hamas builds tunnels.

Israel does not want a ceasefire. They want to keep conflict. It helps them raise money. I have sent them money. No more. They need new leadership. It’s not supposed to be a criminal enterprise. I doubt many would agree, but they are . I can’t view them any other way.

Hamas is dedicating to eradicating Israel and is the instigator of the current crisis. Trump had it right. Hamas has to be contained by other Arab nations who acknowledge Israel’s right to exist and give no money or support to those who attack Israel.

Israel will never agree to …”Two State” solution.

THESE PEOPLE HAVE BEEN AT WAR FOR CENTURIES. IT WILL NEVER STOP, UNLESS IT IS SETTLED WHERE BOTH SIDES ARE SATISFIED.

I am not optimistic as I believe Hamas will attack again. That is their mandate: to destroy Israel. The Palestinian Authority is a much better representative of the Palestinian people. There are Palestinians who oppose Hamas' terroristic tactics. We must ensure that any aid going to the Gaza Strip be prevented from going to Hamas and its rearmament.

The Texas Three Stooges are eerily silent on the Palestinian-Israeli Conflict of 2021. Trump’s Administration failed to “easily” bring peace to the area. 4 months out of office war breaks out. Jarad is a Jerk. A 2 state solution is obvious. Stop pandering to your radicalized, fundamentalist right wing nut religious hypocrites and represent mainstream Americans.

I think the only way forward is compassionate dialogue focussed on solutions and mutual best interests.

Trump had all this under control. Democrats are giving money to China, patting Putin on the back and lifting sanctions on that pipeline - nothing to see here eh.. Biden is puppet of Russia and China as is Obama who is really pulling the strings along with others. He disgraces our country, our military, the constitution and is a smart mouth to boot. I hate to tell you politicians - you work for us and since that is not clear things will change and your lofty benefits and riches can be nullified. Never again will we allow government to do this. Treason charges are coming

As long as the USA is making money on arms sales there will never be an end to this war, right Jack! The money is more important to our gov't than tons of dead Palestinians that have been surprised yet again and drug out of their homes and shot to death. We are backing the wrong horse! This is pure land theft. Always has been.

Hamas will only agree to a cease-fire if they're running out of ammunition and/or money. If they do agree to one it's only so they can regroup, rearm and prepare for their next assault.

Fingers crossed

It is often said one can never change the spots on a Leopard and the saying is also fitting when describing Hamas and the inability to maintain peace in the Middle East. Our great President Trump did assist with the beginning formation of initiating a peace program but without his presence in the WH Israel stands alone. We should be standing by Israel’s side but with Biden taking up space in the WH and not giving a darn about Israel but keeping up continuous rapport with Iran he won’t be 100% behind Israel. Biden would rather give his pledge to Iran and the terrorist groups Iran backs which should tell every American what kind of person he really is. Birds of a feather flock together.

As long as there is an enormous divide in sanitation, health care, education and basic services not to mention the land stealing that goes unchecked, Palestinians will have to defend themselves. Keep Israel in check and for the love of God, quit sending them billions each year!

Senator Schumer, you have abandoned your people.

This is a old story concerning Hamas or any other Muslim group, they only talk about stopping their terror when they are loosing and never keep their agreements. Israel has all the right in the world to neutralize any cross border attacks from Hamas or anyone else. This is just a delay for them to regroup and try again. Read their history for the answer.
