Several days into the ceasefire

Levant gon' Levant. Why would anyone not poisoned by tribal politics expect any different?

Why would I expect a group of people to honor what they said they would when they are getting absolutely destroyed?

Bc I’m smarter than they are I guess.

I've been trying to figure that out. Qatar, which helped negotiate the deal, is the only Arab nations that actually signed the deal. Arab nations were well represented at the Summit, though (which Israel did not attend).

Wild *** guess, but I think that's because Qatar is the closest to Hamas leadership. That is where Hamas leadership has been. Qatar can probably put the most direct pressure on leadership, whereas the other Arab states can just pull their support which is in the open or not to various degrees. May also just be signaling to Hamas leadership that even Qatar is wanting them to cut it our for a little bit.

I wonder whether the attack on Hamas leadership in Qatar made them rethink how much they wanted to support Hamas. Or maybe just like Saudi Arabia they have factions that, whether they support jihad or not, care more about security and money and those factions are gaining more influence.

Hamas says it can’t/won’t deliver any more bodies of hostages. That is a major violation of the agreement.

Meanwhile they have found over 40 kids in Memphis when there was some on here saying it wasn't any point other than show them going in.

No shít? Next thing you’ll tell me is the Egg Bowl rivalry won’t get toxic again.

Apples and oranges. The middle east conflicts are just land disputes, where the egg bowl is unbridled hatred. These types of comparisons are unhelpful.**
