Egypt on Saturday called for an open-ended cease-fire in the Gaza Strip, urging Israel and Hamas to return to indirect talks after seven weeks of fighting punctuated by a number of failed truce attempts.
The call from the foreign ministry came shortly after Western-backed Palestinian President Mahmoud Abbas met with Egyptian President Abdel-Fattah el-Sissi in Cairo. Egyptian officials did not say how they expected renewed talks to produce a different outcome after repeated failures.

Funny how anti-Muslim Brotherhood president el-Sisi is not so anti-MB by parroting the UN and calling for more ceasefires that it is obvious that Hamas will repeatedly breach.

Israel should only “agree to” a cease fire when the last hamasian has their last breath.

There’s no need for that — Egypt needs to call on HAMAS to do that, since Israel is merely defending itself from HAMAS’ constant genocidal attacks.

Here’s what an agreement should look like:
Hamas agrees to stop shooting missiles into Israel, and agrees to destroy all its tunnels into Israel. Israel agrees to stop attacking Hamas in Gaza. Any violation of that agreement by Hamas, and Israel turns Gaza into a smoking ruin.
Any questions?

The journ0lists can be abused by Hamas at will, and they will still parrot Hamas’ propaganda, you know, “because Israel”.
