This is detailed analysis of the ceasefire so far and the steps that led up to it. It's from the perspective of those who support Palestine.

You can say that again, and that's why is so terribly depressing. Not one mention of the 1219 Israelis killed and the 251 hostages taken on October 7 2023, except when they were discussing whether Saraya al-Quds or the Al-Qassam Brigades held the remnants and what would happen once they were returned, dead or alive.

I'm more pessimistic than ever after watching the hour-long video. I suggest members pressed for time start at around the 47:00 mark to get a flavour of the discourse. So sad they are thinking in this way, but then again, I don't hold out much hope for Stage 2. Look at Gaza now; it surely cannot sustain over two million people, with much of its infrastructure destroyed. Where is the talk of the wealthier Arab states digging into their pockets, or will the cost fall once again on the Western world, already swimming in debt?

The only part I agreed with them on was the role of Tony Blair and the Board of Peace, which is doomed to failure. https://www.google.com/search?q=malahi+tony+blair&sca_esv=69afb27cda6b1637&sxsrf=AE3TifPxJW7vCDw7D_532RVFvRapdTHQDQ%3A1760111623704&source=hp&ei=ByzpaKiVKdKRhbIPr53TgQw&iflsig=AOw8s4IAAAAAaOk6F5Ng2IkDpC1m-9zDLEvZz3jmt-o6&ved=0ahUKEwjotODg_pmQAxXSSEEAHa_ONMAQ4dUDCBo&uact=5&oq=malahi+tony+blair&gs_lp=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_m0AbIHBjAuMTYuMbgH7xHCBwY0LjExLjLIByA&sclient=gws-wiz#fpstate=ive&vld=cid:95a8511f,vid:chQmk-4IiVE,st:0
