Hamas responds to ceasefire proposal, reiterates demands
By Nadine El-Bawab and Guy Davies, May 31, 2025, 3:00 PM

'Hamas' key demands are "to achieve a permanent ceasefire, a complete withdrawal from the Gaza Strip, and ensure the continuous flow of humanitarian aid," according to the group'.

 

So in other words they want Israel to surrender to them, clearly not a proposal they intend Israel to accept. No country in the world would, at a point like this. In other words, Hamas has decided that the genocide must continue. Israel won't be beaten until all the Arabs in Gaza are dead.

 

Then all y'all anti-Zionists can say "SEE? We TOLD you it was genocide!" There would be no arguing over definitions then: the total extirpation of a people from a place is, at least in that locality, genocide by definition. From here it looks like that's exactly what Hamas wants: the moral victory of having proven the TheJews(R) are the new Nazis. Nothing less will do.

 

Y'all might argue with my conclusion, I do tend to be a bit cynical and sarcastic sometimes, but at least admit the obvious: accepting Hamas' "proposal" would mean that Israel wreaked all that havoc and killed all those Palestinian children for nothing. A year and eight months of raining bombs for nothing. The "bayoneted babies" of October 7th would go unavenged.

You would have to be totally ignorant of human history, and a damn fool, to think Israel could possibly agree to that. That's not what havoc-wreakers do. Israel in this situation resembles ancient Rome, a wrathful conqueror who us determined to be feared. They're going to be hated anyway, that's what "from the river to the sea" means, so they might as well win big.

Once again, you might see what I mean when I say that I pity the Palestinians, not only because Israel is mean, but also because Hamas is stupid. Or maybe totally crazy, or high on something more fun than ketamine.

The Western countries, including the USA, are breathing down Israel's neck trying to get it to cease fire, then Hamas shows the world it cannot be serious. "Give up all your conquests, go home, say you're sorry, and make sure we get plenty of food, medical supplies, AK 47 ammo, and whatever else we might call humanitarian aid."

At this juncture we must ask ourselves What Would Caesar Do? It's obvious: Caesar would get angry, make the face of firm resolve, and say "Okay, that's it. No more Mister Nice Guy." If anybody ever wanted to give the Bibi Bunch an excuse for a final solution that would surely do. Caesar will NOT be made a fool of.

Israel has already lost in the court of public opinion: millions of well-intentioned people in the civilized world have all along been waving signs that say "Israelis Go Home." The current far-right regime has already been been damned by many many Israeli Jews who you'd expect to support it, including a few generals and a former head of Mossad, for going just a tad overboard. I cannot think of a Western head of government, except maybe Donald Trump (and/or Elon Musk?) who would not prefer that Israel quit while they're ahead.

If there was anything like a serious proposal then the big bosses of "the West" would be insisting Israel agree, or accept it as the basis for serious negotiation. And then Hamas comes out with a "demand" that no Big Boss in Israel's current position could possibly take seriously. Everybody knows that's not going to happen, including everybody who knowingly and explicitly sides with Hamas.

"You have to kill us all!" say the wise men of Hamas. "We insist on being martyred. Bombs away!"

So it is written. It shall be done. For the glory of Allah. Amin.
