Yes, getting a ceasefire agreement in which hostages get released with no final status agreement is a true miracle, entirely without precedent. Thank you Mister Trump!
Now let’s just see how that permanent peace is going:
Israel on Sunday launched its heaviest wave of attacks on Gaza since a fragile cease-fire took hold a week ago and said it had temporarily suspended humanitarian aid after accusing Hamas of violating the truce by firing on its soldiers, killing two.
After nightfall, the Israeli military said in a statement that it had “begun the renewed enforcement of the cease-fire” after carrying out a series of significant strikes against Hamas targets and in accordance with a directive from the government.
The deadly flare-up of violence on Sunday and the temporary suspension of aid were the most serious tests yet of the cease-fire, which was negotiated under heavy pressure by the Trump administration and signed with great fanfare by President Trump himself.
The aid was halted because of the intensity of the Israeli strikes, and was expected to resume once the bombing was over, according to an Israeli official, who spoke on the condition of anonymity to discuss a sensitive matter. Israeli officials had initially said that humanitarian aid would be suspended until further notice but later appeared to step back from that decision.
Wow, this miraculous ceasefire lasted almost a week! Somehow the Nobel Peace Prize seems grossly inadequate.
Most Trump supporters (whether of the honest or anti-anti-Trump variety) are suckers of one kind or another, but the Donald the Dove faction are always the biggest.
