We all knew Israel would try to spoil any peace negotiations

The mad dog Israel needs to be put down. The surrounding countries need to cut the tail that thinks it can wag the dog.

Israel must join the Ceasfire and must open access for humanitarian aide to Gaza and the West Bank. Use the Isreli army not in Lebanon, but to control and eject Settlers who practice violence and illegal occupation of Palestine's lands, villages, farmlands, grazing lands and orchards. If people have taken violent actions against Palestinians or enganged in land thefts, expell them from Palestine and do not allow their return to illegal settlements. Land and housing must be given as reparations. If Israel does not stop bombing Palestien, Lebanon and other nations, cut all USA and international aid and weapons sales to Israel. This Ceasfire must be Israeli's Ceasfire and efforts at reparations in Palestine and Lebanon, too.

800,000 Palestinians from Gaza could move into the evicted illegal settlers homes. West Bank Zionists are worse than the KKK. Greater Israel is the Zionist version of LEBENSRAUM.

Many Jews and others are leaving Isreal and will not return. Illegal settlers should be escorted by the Isreli army to Israel Proper for resettlements and expelled from return to their illegal homes in Palestein. Gaza area should be rebuilt by USA and Israeli money reparations, as the educational , health, cultural and business and communications center of Palestein, as it has been in the past, with good public transportation between settlement areas , agricultural areas and Gaza center. NO international crime, holidays for wealthy financiers of and international finance and crime centers in Gaza as envisioned by the Trumps.

Cut all sales anyway. Israel must be completely cut off from all countries. Now.

I still hear authors and commenters on SubStack call Iran a vicious nation. But Iran has proven itself to be a far more moral and humanitarian nation than USrael.

The U.S. gave Iraq chemical weapons to attack Iran. Iran refused to respond in kind because they found chemical weapons to be immoral.

The U.S. has caused many ME nations to turn their citizens into refugees. Iran has accepted MILLIONS of refugees from these countries.

Iran has the highest percentage of college educated women in any Islamic country and they might lead the world on women in STEM.

The audacious savagery and braggadoccio of the Israelis is a tell tale sign of their utter disregard for anyone but themselves. Truly sociopathic. Now we see who 🤡👑REALLY answers to: the global community & his own country, or the vile zionist monsters. If I were a betting woman....

This clearly reveals Israel’s perspective on the ceasefire—they come across as aggressive and self-centered, prioritizing their own interests above all else. Their actions seem to reflect a sense of impunity, largely because they face little accountability from Western nations.

I genuinely hope that one day I live long enough to witness a time when those who hold Zionist views lose everything they have, and by everything, I mean every last advantage and privilege they currently enjoy.

The only Americans that support Israel are traitors.

The attack by Netanyahu on Lebanon is a reminder that Trump can't do anything without his buddys approval. Israel wants their ass kissed as usual.

When are the world leaders going wake up and take action against these satanic people?

If this was in Europe or Australia, US they will take action immediately.

Zionists are a death cult and needs to be contained and locked up and held accountable for all the death and misery they leave behind them.

UN should be dissolved and international laws should be restructured by other countries then the corrupt evil USA

I laugh sardonically every time someone says, “This is a violation of international law”. Laws are useless without reinforcement. The UN is a joke; the ICC is a joke; the ICJ is a joke. It’s no different than people saying, “Trump can’t do that. It’s against the law.” He has broken the law throughout his life without consequences.

Just like every single ceasefire the zionists ever met. Their monstrous and vile disdain for human life, decency, international law and morality renders them a rogue, terrorist regime and by far the biggest threat to world peace.

And yet our congress gives their ghoulish leader a standing ovation and he is an active participant in the White House situation room urging and likely blackmailing us into massively counterproductive and illegal wars.

Peace president and America First my ass.

I am so grateful for your connections with journalists in the Middle East so we can get a picture of what is really happening on the ground.

Lot's of people stating we knew it was only a matter of time for Israel to destroy hope in a ceasefire. Here's the thing - I'm nobody. I have nothing to gain from anything I say here or anywhere else. So this is my "street-level", non-strategic, unaffiliated view on the situation at this exact point in time: the world - filled with nations of varying influence - has failed to stop Israel from perpetually and aggressively warping our shared value of humanity. Why it has failed, I don't know. But I'm pretty sure - if I've read the world accurately throughout my life - that when powerful entities choose not to act in the face of catastrophe, it's either because there's too much danger, or too much "reward". What do I know..

This is what “ceasefire” looks like in practice: over 250 people killed in minutes, entire neighborhoods bombed in broad daylight, and civilians buried under their own homes. If a ceasefire can be announced in the morning and effectively shattered by the afternoon, then it’s not a ceasefire—it’s political cover. The contradiction between official statements and the reality on the ground couldn’t be more stark.

The horror continues as expected.
