Ending the Gaza war: Three phase proposal
PHASE ONE
- It would begin with a six-week ceasefire, during which the IDF would withdraw from populated areas of Gaza
- Hamas would release “a number” of hostages - including women, the elderly and the wounded - in exchange for hundreds of Palestinian prisoners. Some remains of dead Israeli hostages would be returned to their families
- Palestinian civilians would return to their homes in all areas of Gaza
- Humanitarian assistance would “surge”, with 600 trucks a day entering the strip, and hundreds of thousands of temporary housing units sent by the international community
During that six week period, negotiations mediated by the US and Qatar would continue. If successful, the next part of the plan would begin.

There never were any.
Damn… Stopping IDF was as simple as pulling a red ribbon around the city… Joe is so misunderstood once more
If Joe had no red line, and it’s clear that he never did, he should not have announced one. Now that Netanyahu has sprinted across the announced line, Biden has to lie for him and pretend he didn’t cross it instead of withholding aid like he said he would.
