Usual tricks by Israel
"Source close to prominent Palestinian prisoner tells MEE Witkoff and mediators had OKed his release before Israeli prime minister's office unilaterally removed name last minute"
Barghouti "is seen as a unifying figure despite identifying with Fatah, which is associated with the deeply unpopular PA" He'd win a Palestinian election, if there was one. Israel can't have any of that..

200 US troops in Israel
"The troops are reportedly in Israel to facilitate the delivery of humanitarian aid"
That happened twice already (the Gaza Floating Pier and GHF) and in both cases US/Israel delivered massacres instead of humanitarian aid
"It’s unclear what type of U.S. military support is needed to facilitate that operation [humanitarian aid]"
"CENTCOM is known for obfuscating the U.S. military’s participation in atrocities"
