Israel plays a cynical game. It makes phased agreements with the Palestinians that ensure it immediately gets what it wants. It then violates every subsequent phase and reignites its military assault.
As the incoming admin (and previous) Trump was able to use soft power to pressure Israel to agree to the ceasefire. The Biden admin has had at least the same, but in all likelihood much more, soft power throughout this entire process and failed to apply any genuine pressure on Israel. So much so that Israel refused the deal the US put forth as Israel’s ceasefire deal and instead broke every ‘red line’ with no pushback.
The Biden admin has been 100% complicit in facilitating this genocide, both in supplying arms and international support. Not to say that Trump is any friend of Palestine. The Abraham Accords were completely disasterous for Palestinian emancipation and greatly emboldened Israel’s Settler-Colonial ambitions
I’m 100% on board with everything you’ve said. I was just saying people in the thread were saying “I hate we have to call this trumps ceasefire deal.” I was just pointing out that is incorrect.
