“We all know that Netanyahu never had the intention to enter phase two of the ceasefire because he never had the intention of ending the war in Gaza”, said Gershon Baskin, the former Israeli hostage negotiator on Tuesday.
- War is Netanyahu’s only option – and the carnage won’t stop until he’s gone
And that's from the zionist Daily Telegraphic Nonsense.
But the Krappy News Network, which is also jewish-controlled, also admits the illegitimate state of New Izrael is the one reneging on the ceasefire deal:
Israel and Hamas started a ceasefire on January 19. A first phase was supposed to last 42 days. Hamas has made clear it wants to stick with that agreement.
Under the terms of that second phase, Israel would have to withdraw entirely from Gaza and commit to a permanent end of the war. In exchange, Hamas would release all living hostages.
Israel has made clear it wants new terms. It wanted Hamas to continue releasing hostages in exchange for Palestinian prisoners – but without any commitment to end the war or withdraw its military.
The two sides were meant to discuss a second phase starting February 3, but the Israeli government ignored that deadline.
- Israel has resumed the war in Gaza. Why now?
Izraelis don't believe the renewed assault has anything to do with securing the release of hostages:
“The Israeli government chose to give up on the hostages,” the Hostages and Missing Families Forum said in a statement. “We are shocked, angry, and terrified by the deliberate dismantling of the process to return our loved ones from the terrible captivity of Hamas.”
Netanyahu never seriously intended to honour the second phase of the ceasefire, which was supposed to begin on 1 March and which calls for full Israeli military withdrawal. He blocked humanitarian aid; he cut water and electricity supplies; he delayed second-phase implementation and obstructed talks to get it back on track. He waged war by other means. And when these provocations failed, he insisted, in breach of the ceasefire deal, that Hamas unilaterally liberate more hostages while offering only limited prisoner releases and a temporary truce extension in return.
- Netanyahu will never accept peace. Where will his perpetual war lead next?
Israel’s genocide was only on pause: for Palestinians woken on Monday night by a vicious wave of airstrikes, the resumption was no less shocking. More than 400 people – many of them children – were slaughtered in a matter of hours, in an assault that reportedly received the “green light” from Donald Trump.
. . .
In the wake of the attacks, CNN reported that Israel’s onslaught threw “doubt on the fragile ceasefire”. Orwellian doesn’t even begin to describe such framing. As it is, there was no “ceasefire”: not if your definition is firing ceasing. A single Israeli has been reported to have died in Gaza during the “ceasefire”: a contractor killed by the Israeli army, who mistook him for a Palestinian.
. . .
This is why – from Amnesty International to scholars such as Omer Bartov, the world-renowned Israeli-American professor of Holocaust and genocide studies – there is a consensus among the relevant specialists that Israel is committing genocide.
And no crime has been so confessed to by its perpetrators as it happened. Israel announced a total blockade on all humanitarian aid entering Gaza 17 days ago, an incontrovertible violation of international law.
- Imagine if all those who are silent about the terrible evil being committed in Gaza spoke up
Trump has now repeated the call to relocate Palestinians from Gaza to Egypt and Jordan – or possibly other parts of Africa – and for the US to take “ownership” of the coastal strip and turn it into the “Riviera of the Middle East.”
On the face of it, this plan would be a war crime.
- Israel-Hamas ceasefire shatters without resolving anything
