This isn’t a peace plan. It’s a ceasefire. Why is the media calling it a peace plan?

I have been angry at my alma mater - Northwestern - capitulated to Trump. But thinking on it now, I'm more angry at the student body for not raising holy hell and protesting that their university capitulated.

Excellent information.
It's as if the argument that Jews have no historical claim to the area around Israel, is a false argument!

Joel Lava @joellava.bsky.social · 1d

When did the non indigenous Jews drive out the Canaanites? It's true that Jews didn't exist until 5786 years ago... are you going that far into history?

Yep, I fully expect Israel to use the fact that Hamas doesn't know where the bodies of the dead hostages are or can't physically retrieve them as a pretense to break the cease fire and attack, right when the civilians have come back and are sitting ducks.

“Yeah but there was no final status negotiated under those”

There’s no final status agreement now either

“Yeah but those were temporary”

This one hasn’t even been in force for a week

“But this time Bibi promises it’s for real!”

There were at least two ceasefires under Biden! In which more than five times as many living Israeli hostages were released in exchange for 240 Palestinians! Has everyone forgotten this?

Also, ceasefires have happened under prior Presidents! The day he gets Palestine their own country he can be told he's the most special boy deserving of a shiny prize.

These "Join ICE Obey" lenticular stickers mysteriously appeared along the #Ventura CA promenade. The full moon must've had something to do with it...
