WSJ: Hamas Rejects Ceasefire If Required to Disarm
Breitbart ^ | 06/06/2024 | JOEL B. POLLAK

Yayha Sinwar, the Gaza-based leader of Hamas, has reportedly rejected any ceasefire that would require the terror group to disarm, according to the Wall Street Journal — making a new hostage deal almost impossible.

The Journal reported Thursday:

Hamas’s leader in Gaza told Arab negotiators that he would accept a peace deal only if Israel commits to a permanent cease-fire, affirming the militant group’s position in his first response to a proposal introduced by President Biden to end the eight-month war.

“Hamas will not surrender its guns or sign a proposal that asks for that,” Arab mediators said Hamas leader Yahya Sinwar told them in a brief message they received Thursday, as two top U.S. officials, including Central Intelligence Agency Director William Burns, hold talks in the region aimed at jump-starting long-stalled negotiations.

The Hamas response could be interpreted as a rejection of Biden’s proposal. In fact, however, it neatly splits the difference between the American proposal (which falsely claimed to be Israel’s proposal) and the actual Israeli proposal, which is that no ceasefire is acceptable that allows Hamas to retain military and governing capability.

Well we or Israel could pry the guns from their dead cold hands, if there is enough left to recover. Kill them all.

What is it with Hamas, always raising the ante and asking for more and more conditions that are sure to torpedo the negotiations, such as they are. Almost as if Hamas did not
WANT to come to any kind of resolution.

So how are they going to control and rip off their underlings if they cannot keep their weapons. Without weapons they are dead men walking.

“The blind hatred they have overrules anything else.”

The hatred is related to the cannon fodder at the bottom. To the people at the top it’s all about the money. If the conflict stops, so do all the money flows which have made them all filthy rich.

You can’t negotiate with Islam. It’s against their religion. Violence and conquest is their religion. They even murder their own.
Israel knows it.
Christians know it.
Netanyahu needs to wipe Hamas out.

Considering I firmly believe that remaining hostages are most likely dead - that’s why HAMAS also refuses any ceasefire that includes releasing ALL the hostages unharmed... They literally CAN’T... and if they hand over all those rotting carcasses of their hostages - it would be a very sold reason for Israel to literally carpet bomb Gaza. This is why the sham arrest warrant from the International Court... This is why the literal army of social media trolls have been ratcheting up their insane propaganda... They know what is coming-— and what will be viewed by many of us as totally justified.

Islam considers surrender to be a form of treason against their pedophile prophet

Islam has a foundational tenant called Taqiyya - that teaches Muslims are not only allowed, but commanded to use lying and deception to protect Islam and Muslims.

BREAKING NEWS: Isreal airbase was targeted with hypersonic missiles by Iran... Russian made missiles.

Putin has stated Iran may pon recieve the Turan antiship hypersonic missiles...

Sullivan and Blinken have convinced Biden to escalated attacks on Russia.

Biden, Sullivan, Austin, and Blinken are totally incompetent and idiots.
