wow
The resolution only called for a ceasefire?
I'm ootl on that.
The last bit you quoted about Biden is referring to statements he made about Biden asking Netanyahu about the possibility of a ceasefire and that Bibi told Biden there is none.
What are you saying? The article links to this:
https://www.whitehouse.gov/briefing-room/speeches-remarks/2023/11/09/remarks-by-president-biden-before-marine-one-departure-39/
Q (Inaudible) Gaza ceasefire, Mr. President?
THE PRESIDENT: Pardon me?
Q What are the chances of a Gaza ceasefire?
THE PRESIDENT: None. No possibility.
Q Any update on getting hostages out?
THE PRESIDENT: We’re still optimistic.
Q What’s the — what’s the delay on getting more hostages?
Q What’s your message to the families of the hostages in Gaza?
THE PRESIDENT: We’re not going to stop until we get them out.
Q How confident are you that you will get them out?
Q What’s been the delay?
Q Mr. President, are the retaliatory strikes working? Mr. President, are the retaliatory strikes working in the Middle East?
THE PRESIDENT: Yes. I mean, they’re — they’re working in the sense that we’re hitting the targets they’re seeking.
Yes, there's no possibility because he's asked and was tolled no possibility.
This is the correct answer. There will be no cease fire until, at minimum, the hostages are released. The other problem that the Israelis have is that there's no evidence that Hamas has any intention of honoring a cease fire as they've willingly violated many such agreements in the past.
I don't have a strong opinion as to what the correct choice is here for Israel, I'm simply stating the facts as they relate to the possibility of a cease fire.
