Okay, so you're just playing with words, like a djinn or the devil in every movie they're in lol. A genocide is happening my dude. We all knew what they meant when they kept trying to say they were working for a ceasefire and what they were trying to portray. If they had an intern write a character a day in an eventual handwritten note they would snail mail to Netanyahu's office after a year and a half asking them to politely please stop the attacks, then you'd consider that as them "working everyday" for the ceasefire, when we would know they weren't? Miss me with that shit.
They're not really trying at all for something if they're not using easily available options. If I went to work and said I got nothing done this for two years because I needed some report from some other team that I never actually asked for directly and never emailed them about, it would be fair if everyone thought I lied in my performance review about how hard I worked. That's essentially what this former Israeli ambassador revealed, even though we all kind of knew it anyway.
Contrast that with Trump who came in and immediately started demanding a ceasefire deal. Trump! The biggest fucking biggest idiot in the world. It's how they got one done, even if it only lasted a short time, it was some relief for a bit.
Bide never demanded shit.
Trump and Co also put pressure not to allow a deal during the Biden admin so that there wouldn't be any shared credit. Netanyahu and the Israeli government went along with it because they thought they could get a better deal and so far that looks to be the case considering there hasn't been any pushback since they violated the ceasefire that was in place and escalated the genocide in the last few months including blocking all aid since shortly after Trump took office. https://apnews.com/article/israel-palestinians-hamas-war-ceasefire-hostages-netanyahu-ff48f081b069e484955a72bc68261364
Miss me with that revisionist history.
Biden had years to get a ceasefire done and never once demanded it. You can't deny that. The only reason Trump was able to interfere is because Biden took forever, and there was no reason to take the Biden deal because they knew what they would get with Biden - absolute freedom to do whatever they wanted and he wouldn't do anything if they slow rolled it out interfered with the deal. The Biden admin made that obvious and Israel here has confirmed it. The ceasefire failing is awful but we would have never got one in the first place if Biden was still President. And the genocide has lways been escalating. They were already restricting aid during Biden, that's why they tried to do that stupid pier thing that failed, even though they could have demanded Israel open up the roads for aid trucks. It's always been steadily increasing in more destruction, less aid, more dead journalists, more dead UNRWA and other aid workers, etc. It's the same deal as before just in a Trumpian instead of Biden fashion.
