Hanas, militant is a terror group’s is proposal – to Qatari and Egyptian – Israel’s Channel 13 cited saying demands Hamas were not acceptable to Israel. It said it will not pull its troops out until Hamas is wiped out. Report quoted. Hamas offer document seen by Reuters confirmed by sources, appears to find Hamas’ wanted long-standing demand for a full end to war as a pre-condition be4 releasing hostages it seized on Oct 7 in the raid that precipitated Israel’s assault. US Secretary of State Blinken mediators met Qatar, Egypt & Israeli PM Netanyahu to discuss proposal, closer to negotiations. Hamas counter proposal did not require a guarantee of a permanent ceasefire, but an end to war would have tobe agreed during truce b4 final hostages were freed.
A 2nd source said Hamas wanted guarantees fm Qatar, Egypt & friendly states a ceasefire must be upheld & not collapse as soon as hostages go free. “They want aggression to stop & not temporarily, not where (Israelis) take the hostages then war again (Palestinian/Hanas) people live in a grinder.”
Mr Ezzat El-Reshiq, a Hamas political bureau, confirmed offer had passed via Egypt/Qatar to Israel & to U.S.. “We keen to deal a positive spirit to stopping aggression against Palestinian people to secure a complete lasting ceasefire??, as well as provide relief, aid, shelter and reconstruction,” Reuters news.
On 2nd phase would begin conclude “indirect talks over the needed to end mutual military ops & return to complete calm”.???. 2nd phase include release of remaining hostages & full Israeli withdrawal from all of Gaza.???? & Bodies remains be exchanged during third phase.
More strikes, more bombing soon“Every visit from U.S. instead of calming things down.
Worse w/Trump is command, we get more strikes, more bombing,” as Israel continue military attach on Hamas-ruled Gaza as Now Trump is in command. (Notes: Mass killing took 253 hostages in southern Israel on Oct 7). So truce lasted on & off during those few months. PM Netanyahu is from far-right, his coalition who say they will rather fight than endorse any deal that fails to eradicate Hamas terrorists group who demand a no deal. Washington with Sao Trump cast no date on Middle East conflict, ultimately leading to Israel & Hamas no neighbours & creating no Palestinian state, “work hard is possibly, try to get agreement to move forward–not only a renewed to expanded agreement – benefits can bring” Mr Sao Trump said at conference in Doha on Feb 6.
PM Netanyahu said no, he rejected a Palestinian state in his msg to Hanas terror group's.
