So? so what?

We have ‘expectations’ too.

We can always do less!

None of us really know what’s going on with the deals or what the expectations are so some of this is just PR. If your main concern is votes in Michigan you have to walk one way more than the other.

We know at a bare minimum that Hamas wants a complete withdrawal, and we know Israel wants to keep military control of the Gaza border with Egypt and maybe a strip of land dividing north from south to prevent smuggling of weapons.

But they are also both likely asking for other things from various 3rd parties. Gaza will need to be rebuilt, but who will pay for that and who will pay for that if they think it will just get destroyed again in 5 or 15 years. These 3rd parties will want assurances from both sides, which are contingent on many factors.

I don’t see how Israel will go back to Oct 6th, they will want to prevent all smuggling and tunneling from Egypt. The Palestinians always seem to want to negotiate with everyone but Israel. That won’t solve their problems.
