(Another) Ceasefire proposal has been sent to Hamas. What are the chances it will be accepted?

The plan's first phase would start with six weeks of a full and complete cease-fire, including the withdrawal of Israeli forces from populated areas of Gaza, and the release of women and children being held hostage, Biden said during the surprise announcement. This initial stage would also include a surge of humanitarian assistance, with 600 trucks carrying aid into Gaza every day.

Biden said that, in that first phase, Israel and Hamas would negotiate a permanent cease-fire and admitted that there could be major hurdles

The president said that phase two wouldn't begin until all agreements are reached. That second stage would involve the release of all living hostages in exchange for Palestinians imprisoned in Israel.

The final phase would be the start of a major reconstruction plan in Gaza and the return of the remains of deceased hostages to their families.

So, questions

  • Since the war aims of Netanyahu are the complete destruction of Hamas, what deal would both sides be willing to accept?

  • How many hostages are likely to still be alive?

  • If this plan fails, what plan actually would wok4?

The Israelis have been very clear that they don't make any distinction between the two. The president of Israel himself has said this explicitly.

He said that after reporters were like "Just to clarify, are you saying all Palestinians are responsible?"

He realized he'd stepped in it and said the quiet part way too loud and had to walk it back.

Assuming I had the answer to that, which I do not for reasons that should be pretty obvious, what does that matter?

If they were involved, that does not greenlight a genocide.

When you made the leap from "an entire nation is guilty" to "civilians were aware and involved."
