Useful thread on the Gaza ceasefire from Elizabeth Saunders, building on a piece from Page Fortna.

Elizabeth N. Saunders @profsaunders.bsky.social · 5h

🧵A thread inspired by this new @goodauth.bsky.social piece from the Dean of Ceasefire Studies, @pagefortna.bsky.social. Also, I like to admit when I'm wrong. I was wrong to doubt there would be a ceasefire, and I have written that Trump destroyed US diplomacy. 1/

The Israel-Hamas ceasefire leaves important questions unanswered

Many important details must still be worked out.

A lasting Israeli-Palestinian peace will require many steps, but a normal rather than “special” relationship between the US and Israel must be one of them. Latest FP column here: foreignpolicy.com/2025/10/15/t...

The Peace in Gaza Won’t Last

Only the end of Israel’s special relationship with the United States would signal a true end of war.

Israel is still not allowing International Media back into Gaza, despite the Ceasefire

By Colleen Murrell, Dublin City University (The Conversation) – The world’s media are currently busy recording the tales of released Israeli hostages, freed Palestinian prisoners and their families after a ceasefire came into effect for the war in Gaza. But they are doing so while still being held at a distance from the centre of […]

Al Jazeera is doing videos of the Palestinian releases and they're heart wrenching. One man was detained for over a year and was released to find out that Israel had killed his two kids. The youngest was three. Her birthday would've been on Saturday. He'd made a small bracelet for her in prison.
