The Israeli hostages will be received into Israel by well-stocked and highly functional hospitals with significant allied health supports. The same cannot be said of the Palestinian hostages when they return to Gaza.

The ones boasting of peace are the ones responsible for Israel’s genocide in Gaza. The world must hold all those accountable for the horrors witnessed and war crimes committed over the past two years.

Palestinian families eager to reunite with loved ones due to be freed learned that Israel had deported them instead. Amid the pain and the decimation of Gaza, U.S. President Donald Trump declared the “dawn of a new Middle East” at the Knesset.

Interesting that ABC reporting seems to ignore all the war crimes and genocide over the past two years, and not a mention of the Aussies who travelled to Israel to kill innocent Palestinians @latingle.bsky.social @johnthelyonsden.bsky.social @patskarvelas.bsky.social #Nuremberg #auspol #GazaGenocide

I can’t believe how much airtime our so called ABC has covered Israel today … and as I am writing this shameless Bibi (who before he opened his mouth was looking incredibly ashamed) upon opening his mouth has gone on & on & on with rhetoric that is even sending Donny to sleep 😴

The ceasefire deal between Israel and Hamas includes halting military actions, an Israeli withdrawal, increased humanitarian aid, and a prisoner swap. But it doesn't guarantee an end to the war or that Israel won't resume the genocide later.
