Not sure if this is the thread to post this as I can’t remember if there is another thread specifically about Palestine/Israel conflict that isn’t long since locked. Anyway…big news…
Cease fire finally agreed to…
https://apnews.com/live/israel-hamas-ceasefire-updates
Edit: THANKS MODS!!!
Let’s hope all those held prisoner on both sides are accounted for and returned, and that the cease fire holds.
Hopefully…Hamas will think twice before pulling a stunt like 10/7 again.
You know…maybe I should have just started a thread. There could be a lot to discuss that would not fit this threads theme and could side track it and lead to a lock easily.
Did it for you. I also hope this is the start of a lasting peace.
Should Israel annex the Syrian Druze villages that have asked to become a part of Israel?
No… they should let those people immigrate to Israel if they don’t like their country’s leaders…
Should USA annex cartel territories in Mexico…?
How is this thread not going to become political?
I don’t think people truly understand the hatred Palestinians (not all, but many) have for Jewish people.
If Israel allows Palestinians from Gaza into Isreal as free people with equal rights, then you risk a potential internal uprising or proxy takeover. There’s no way in hell Israelis are ever going to be comfortable to live alongside Palestinians without fear of retaliations after years of inhumane occupation.
And don’t tell me that there are Palestinians living in Israel already and it somehow justifies anything. Anti-Palestinian racism prejudice exists in Israel.
I don’t know how Israel and Palestine move forward. This ceasefire is great, and I hope all hostages get returned.
How do we move forward? That’s the million dollar question.
Nice job both administrations. This took a team and they both worked together on this.
Well done both, well done America.
Thanks for splitting this off Dustin!
Peace. That is all I want. Seems so simple but alas it is not.
Peace in the Mid East
Not that anyone will believe them but what are the final numbers on lives lost during this “war”?
I would lean towards yes if that’s what the people of the area want. However it should be done in a diplomatic/cooperative manner. I am not sure the geography involved on that either. So I would wait and see what is proposed, if anything.
Unknown until all the hostages are returned.
It will get locked when it does. I’d say the rest of your questions in that post are TBD, and/or political discussion.
Draw a line in the sand = results. We all know why.
The hard truth that we all know is that the war between one side vs the other will never end. It won’t until the mollahs and their proxies accept that the State of Israel is the rightful owner. History has always been on Israel’s side.
Let’s pray that indeed hostages will be freed.
I’m unclear how Israel can be safer while returning 1,000 terrorists and violent criminals. I think they are setting themselves up for future attacks.
Yes same, though I don’t know what their options realistically were.
I agree. I don’t know either. I don’t think they were ever going to get a full surrender and all of the hostages returned on the same day.
Doesn’t matter Jews are not going to be safe in Israel if they release zero, 1,000 or ten thousand.
Jews are not going to be safe in Israel or New York, Houston, or anywhere else.
It has always been unsafe and always will be.
I hope not.
It was a good day.
