Please note this "leak." https://wapo.st/471KaMZ Could it be that the ceasefire is being entrusted to countries that will betray the Palestinians? If so, Europeans should be meeting in crisis mode and preparing to join the force or to insist on a UN peacekeeping force that can take on Israel if the agreement is broken. I would place much more faith in France and Britain (and others) than in Arab nations after reading this, and have always felt they should be included in the peacekeeping force.

💔 “…. they made a desert and called it peace” When will accountability come for Israel and complicit western states!? The US, in particular.

Hate the fact that we have to ask for a Palestinian State, that it’s not automatically included in the new agreement. Haven’t Palestinians been asking for that for like 75 years now, about as long as I have been alive?

They've been offered some completely unacceptable options, with far too little land for far too many people. This leads uninformed people in the Comments sections of the Times and Post to blame it all on them for not accepting two states when they could. I push back against false comments under my late brother's name and get SO tired of reading the same ones over and over again!
