The U.S. - Saudi - Hamas deal (that thankfully cuts the Israeli gov out) includes Hamas having some participation in a new government if they agree to disarm, hand in their weapons over a three year period, and stop all military activity.
This is becoming very cringe for the crime minister.

It sounds like one of the American cardinals blabbed to the Wall Street Journal about how the papal conclave voting went down. The details are in the second half of the article.
WSJ's reporting agrees with what I'd heard: the Latin American cardinals had coalesced around Prevost even before the conclave, and provided the base of his support, which then attracted those opposed to Italian Cardinal Pietro Parolin.

It’s not often that Israel mass-kills adult male Palestinians and the world reacts with outrage. All Israel has to do is claim they were Hamas to 2K-bomb them to pieces. But there’s something too familiar about 15 point-blank executions and a buried ambulance that cannot be explained away as “war”
