Bkk Brian Posted May 8 Share Posted May 8 This clears it up. From US State Department spokesperson Matthew Miller. US: Hamas claimed to accept ceasefire offer, but ‘that’s not what they did’ "Hamas seemed to make clear in their public statements that they accepted that offer yesterday. That is not what they did. They responded with amendments or a counter-proposal, and we’re working through the details of that now. https://www.timesofisrael.com/liveblog_entry/us-hamas-claimed-to-accept-ceasefire-offer-but-thats-not-what-they-did/ 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

"Anything that comes from Israel media, is propaganda as it isn't verifiable by international media."" If journalists were allowed to freely roam around Gaza its quite likely that they would find the location of the hostages and then Hamas would have to kill the journalists , Hamas likely would kill the journalists on sight over suspicions that they may be IDF in disguise . It would even be a good opportunity for Israel to send in IDF disguised as reporters 2 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

coolcarer Posted May 8 Share Posted May 8 Quick reminder of why this war started. From Biden yesterday “Not 75 years later, but just seven and a half months later, and people are already forgetting…that *Hamas* unleashed this terror. It was *Hamas* that brutalized Israelis. It was *Hamas* who took and continues to hold hostages. I have not forgotten, nor have you.” https://twitter.com/IsraelinUSA/status/1787938654817583169 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Popular Post Nick Carter icp Posted May 8 Popular Post Share Posted May 8 Just now, Jeff the Chef said: Like the IDF did when they executed people in their hospital beds dressed as medics. Bet the ICJ/ICC loved that one. Please could you start giving the full story to your claims . I seem to spend too much of my time correcting you and giving the full story .Would you like to explain who the three people were , or shall I do it ? Israeli forces kill three Palestinian fighters in West Bank hospital raid Israeli forces have killed three members of Palestinian armed groups in a hospital in the occupied West Bank. CCTV footage showed members of an undercover unit disguised as medics and other civilians making their way through a corridor with rifles raised. The Israeli military said the men were hiding in the Jenin hospital, and that one was about to carry out an attack. https://www.bbc.com/news/world-middle-east-68137050 1 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
