Well if Bibi doesn’t screw it up, Trump’s gonna get his Nobel. Huge IF though. Dems need to take at least one thing from Trump, it’s ok to bully a little bit, as a treat, on really important things.

I really hope this actually lands a lasting peace!!! Trump needs to pressure bibi and Hamas to see this through instead of allowing bibi do whatever he wants.

Some random Hamas or PIJ fighter is going to do something stupid, Israel is going to carpet bomb as a response, and this deal will blow up within a week

>The statement also made no mention of Hamas disarming, a key Israeli demand included in Trump’s proposal.
Seems to be a big omission, no?

Isn’t a partial acceptance of an offer basically a counteroffer, and therefore a rejection?
That was one of my key takeaways from contract law 1L year.

The problem is the elements they don’t agree to is the core Israeli demand of disarming so nothing has actually been accomplished here

It’s going to come down to if Trump is somewhat flexible
There is an opportunity here to get back all the Israeli hostages, end the war, and rebuild+stabilize Gaza in a place which won’t threaten Israel especially with Hamas this disliked among the Gazan population right now. The Arab and Muslim world also have to pitch in with peacekeepers obviously.
