because Israel always honours it's word
The Israeli government is expected to vote on the agreement on Thursday.
Sorry, a deal hasn't been reached until the bombs stop falling.

My preemptive condolences for whomever from Palestine agreed to this ceasefire.
Yes. Netanyahu (who was known for backing out of deals that were already agreed to) has already announced a “last minute crisis” to block the deal.
Sounds like an euphemism to a call from Trump or Likud nuts
There's also the fact that they reached a "ceasefire" with Lebanon and still had soldiers and tanks shooting at people there literally the day after.
The timing seems very convenient, no? Especially since this was the Achilles heel of the dems.
Netanyahu knows Trump is going to be better for HIS Israeli right wing party. The cease-fire was going to happen either way, because his Israeli party is paying too much of an international and domestic cost at this point. Netanyahu waited to be sure to give Trump the win if possible because he knows Trump will capitulate to his party. It was going to go this way after the election either way. It was self-serving. Wait and see what happens after the “cease fire.” This was politics between like minded parties, not compassion for the people of Gaza.
Makes sense. I just wish it wasn't so obvious how corrupt all this is.
It's sad that we long for the good old days of people having the decency to make an effort to hide their corruption.
Why didn’t he wait a week after Trump swearing in
Probably so when Isreal eventually breaks the ceasefire Trump can blame it on the "worst ceasefire deal ever made".
Haha, you’re right. And here I was, thinking Biden would get the credit for the ceasefire and Trump would get the blame when it fails.
The faction that was blocking the bill has the green light to get stuck into the West Bank now trumps in and Gaza is quickly becoming an ever smaller death camp which is bad optics with little upside.
They had just as much of green light under Biden: nobody was stopping them from doing whatever they like in West Bank.
I guess they should’ve hired you and could’ve saved 100m
Facts are facts
They’re not facts just a naive one dimensional take.
Ok. They're also facts though.
And so are the things I said. Turns out you need to consider lots of facts to realise the whole fact.
No, what you said was speculation.
Your own article literally agrees with me, not you.
on what?
Very convenient that Donald Trump did the thing Joe Biden could have done for 15 months. Ending the genocide with a single phone call.
Democrats have been gaslit into infinity. They now actually believe that the president of the USA does not have the power to stop Israel because Biden chose not to do so.
Iran hostage deal reached the same day Carter leaves office. History repeats.
Ah yes, I remember how Carter kept sending billions in arms to Iran
Yep. And now Israel has a friendlier government to solidify its gains.
You couldn't get a more Israel friendly government than the Biden administration
Oh sweet summer child - you are about to see what “friendly” really is
Lol, blue maga is so desperate for the genocide to continue
I imagine you find comfort in such a simple worldview
Israel will break it immediately.
They always have.
Not if Trumpy has a say in it…
