Hamas already proposed a deal for a permanent ceasefire. Israelies are the ones not agreeing to it.

It doesn't make sense for Hamas to give up prisoners in exchange for a 'temporary' ceasefire. All that's going to happen is a massacre when the ceasefire expires and Hamas won't have the leverage they have now.

This is straight out of the Republican playbook of proposing bullshit they know will never be agreed upon just to paint the opposition as unagreeable.

Fuck Zionists and fuck their supporters. They're the same as Nazis.

Yet it's always framed as Hamas rejects (temporary) ceasefire and never highlighted how it's Israel rejecting any permanent ceasefire. As if only considering a full ceasefire instead of a temporary pause to the unending bombing and starvation campaign is unreasonable.

What was their deal though?
