Feel like once the hostages are handed over Israel will start bombing again

[Wakeuplittlebunnies]

It seems too good to be true, a final end to the war.

After all the plans that were announced with regards to annexation and the Israeli far-right government members, I can’t help but feel that once all of the hostages are released Israel will go ham on Gaza.

There will be nothing to stop them bombing everywhere.

No hostages to avoid bombing.

No families pleading with the Israeli ministers.

Israel has broken so many ceasefires and this was with the hostages lives at stake.

I don’t know, but I can’t celebrate with everyone as I don’t believe it will last and my heart says that’s it’s going to get worse.

Come on you’re being pedantic, you know what they meant

Netanyahu doesn’t want ceasefire, nor does he give a shit about the hostages, he wants the Gazan land all to himself so he and the likes of Trump can get even richer.

"BREAKING: Egypt announces 15 approved Palestinian technocrats to govern Gaza with Hamas playing no role"

Looks like there is a plan in place now, although quite how they're going to implement it I'm not sure:

Ok thanks for this. Maybe Hamas will step aside and give up weapons. Initially I thought no way but maybe they will.

Tbh do Hamas really have a choice now, they either disarm or the Americans go in. Sorry I doing have X so can’t read that

Also reported in the Times of Israel dated 14th October:

Egyptian Foreign Minister Badr Abdelatty told The Associated Press ahead of yesterday’s summit that 15 Palestinian technocrats have been selected to administer postwar Gaza.

He said their names were already vetted by Israel, without disclosing them.

“We need to deploy them to take care of the daily life of the people in Gaza, and the Board of Peace should support and supervise the flow of finance and money, which will come for the reconstruction of Gaza,” he said, referring to a board that would govern Gaza and be chaired by US President Donald Trump.

Abdelatty said the 15-member committee had already been approved by all Palestinian factions, including Hamas.

He said Hamas members welcomed Trump’s plan. They “have no role in the transitional period. They are committed to that. That is why they are working on an administrative Palestinian committee to be deployed in order to take care of the daily life of the people of Gaza,” Abdelatty said.

he said, referring to a board that would govern Gaza and be chaired by US President Donald Trump.

Oh god not Trump, I mean I presume he’ll be pumping in loads of money to Palestine, but I don’t believe he has the Palestinians best interests at heart, still think he is thinking about lining his pockets further.

Don’t trust Hamas at all, don’t believe they’ll be happy with that, unless there’s a nice incentive for them to do so from Trump

I think oversight would be better from the UN myself but if they are to help bring war criminals and reparations to rights then perhaps someone else but Trump horrifies me really.

Odd how everyone seems to forget that Gaza also has a border with Egypt.

I think this plan has a far, far better chance of succeeding under Trump - he actually does get things done, and I suspect they respect him for that in the ME, for all Europe is horrified by him.
The UN would be a disater, they're toothless.

Do they? I’m not sure who you think doesn’t realise this. It’s in the papers fairly regularly and we all have access to maps. Who do you think is controlling the border crossing?

Re: the UN and their efficiency - didn’t the IDF discover a Hezbollah tunnel entrance in Lebanon last year, just 200 metres from a UNIFIL base? How could UNIFIL have missed it?

Agree. The success relies on Hamas co operating and not many can get them to do that.

Gaza’s been under blockade since 2007, bombed repeatedly, and starved of basic freedom for years before Oct 7th ever happened.

Well said

Why was the blockade against Gaza implemented? Could it have anything to do with Hamas being voted in there?

I don’t really think “teeth” is what you look for to move away from the swill of trauma being acted out in the Middle East. I personally think Trump has little understanding of the players and is definitely seen as pro Israeli. Is that you going to help going forward?

That sounds more positive.

I’m not about to go back through decades of occupation, blockade and repeated assaults that have kept Palestinians trapped in a cycle of violence since 1948. It just blows my mind that people still talk as if this all began on October 7th.

Things are possible but they are more so without an armed Hamas, do you agree on that part?

I think it’s such a big problem it’ll take all kinds of people adding to the solution. Someone linked other administrators who sound moderate.

It needs everyone aiming for lasting peace.

Funny how you mention the blockade, yet refuse to talk about the reasons why it was implemented (not just by Israel btw, but also by Egypt).
And talking of repeater assaults, did they only ever come from the Israeli side or did Palestinians launch attacks too?

Wow. Comparing two million civilians- half of them children- to “vicious dogs” really says more about your mindset than theirs.

Dehumanisation always comes before mass killing. You might want to reflect on why you feel comfortable using that language.

I haven’t refused to talk about anything. I’ve addressed repeated assaults, the blockade, and the wider context of occupation. The point I’ve been consistently making is that civilians, especially children, are dying in huge numbers, and that this humanitarian crisis is real regardless of why the blockade was imposed. Shifting the focus to who started it is just pathetic.

A calm response to an upsetting post @Wedonttalkaboutboris well put.

I agree that it will take so many people trying for peace in such very abrasive circumstances that it is daunting. The denial of abhorrent behaviour on both sides has to stop and an almost inhuman strength drawn on. I don’t think Trump has the level of integrity needed, but if it must be him then everyone must work even harder because he isn’t known for taking the harder path.

Why was the blockade implemented then?
