My updated analysis of the #Israel-Hamas ceasefire and implementation of Trump's 20-point plan, via @TheNatlInterest! Bibi is scratching and clawing to play spoiler, but the Trump team appears to remain focused at this point. But will it last? More below: https://t.co/Ju0dLwAxkV

One need look no further than Israeli prime minister Benjamin Netanyahu for the cause of the growing cracks in the Gaza ceasefire.

Yahya al-Masri writes in @DAWN_Journal that Trump's 20-point plan is merely meant to "rescue Israel from global outrage and deepening isolation" and bolster Trump's "peacemaker" image in a "childish and narcissistic attempt" to win the Nobel peace prize. https://t.co/VUKNLLdkyZ

“Calling an incident a ‘mistake’ or a ‘tragic mishap’ does not excuse officials from their legal obligation to take all feasible precautions to protect civilians,” said Oona Hathaway, a professor ... at Yale Law School and former special counsel at the Defense Department.

Saudi is smart enough to see the true face and intent of Smotrich and Co Their worldview, Islamopohobia and anti-Arab racism are incompatible with Arab Israeli reconciliation
Israeli Finance Minister Smotrich: My statement about Saudi Arabia was certainly not successful, and I regret the offense it caused.

@StateDept Omar Assad is one of 13 Americans killed by Israeli forces in Palestine since 2003. The Israeli government has not held anyone criminally accountable for these crimes. DAWN is calling on Congress to demand that the @StateDept investigate these killings: https://t.co/D3uEJmLC9i

I mean we've known for a while now that the head of Axel Springer, and the company more widely, is not only on the right in its politics, but leans heavily into pro-Israel stances.
Hard to imagine worse optics for a media company than accepting an award from a government that just killed 67,000 people in a war that many experts have called a genocide.

As our Government remains shutdown, senior U.S. officials from the Vice President to the Secretary of State are having to spend their time 'Bibi-sitting'. This should not be necessary with a reliable partner.
Arrived in Israel to reaffirm America’s unwavering commitment to Israel's security and engage with partners to implement President Trump's historic peace plan and build on the momentum towards durable peace and integration in the Middle East.

Enough is enough. I was with Zohran on September 11th 2001. We were 9 years old at school in Morningside Heights. By 9:30AM we realized something was really wrong, because the teachers looked scared and they had paused classes. They had us call our parents to come pick us up.
With Dire Picture of a Mamdani Mayoralty, Cuomo Plays to Voters’ Fears On Thurs, he urged Sid Rosenberg to “imagine Mamdani in that seat,” if there's another Sept 11. “Yeah, I could. He’d be cheering,” he said. Cuomo laughed. “That’s another problem" https://t.co/Rgvlbmm8UG

@LTC_Shoshani Are you getting desperate? That's a generic letter from Gaza's Teachers Union to a school teacher on Teachers' Day. They send this letter to all teachers annually. Since Gaza is controlled by Hamas, it's only natural the Teachers Union would be run by those in control!

Under both Biden & Trump, US bids for Gaza ceasefires ignored accountability for acts during the war — a requirement under US law & likely an essential ingredient for any meaningful peace. Weakening that process now is another grim sign about the lasting power of Trump’s peace.
U.S. administrations of both parties neglected the landmark Leahy Law prohibiting military aid to foreign security forces engaged in gross violations of human rights, especially when it came to Israel. Now Trump is trying to pull the plug on it entirely. https://t.co/K4tVpSAKXs

Another excellent articles from one of our Palestinian contributors, who just recently was evacuated from the Strip. He discusses his family's concerns regarding the ceasefire and shares his thoughts on the true purpose of the ceasefire, arguing Trump's plan won't bring peace.
"If the plan’s purpose is to absorb the world’s outrage, shielding Israel from deeper isolation, then let my message be clear: To all who have stood and stand for Palestine, humanity and justice, keep your eyes on Gaza," writes Yahya al-Masri. https://t.co/3ReE0tpMTg

Libya's crisis is "fundamentally rooted in a struggle for control," writes @YoussefSawani. "A shift is needed that prioritizes an inclusive, Libyan-led solution over externally defined terms."

The Libyan political landscape remains static due to entrenched power struggles, the accumulated failures of the U.N.-backed roadmap and its rejection by key actors.

Don’t be fooled. It’s nearly election season in Israel and this is a political gift to Netanyahu, who can now restrain the annexationists in his coalition without any domestic political fallout because, “what can you do? We need Trump and America.”
Trump on possible Israeli annexation of West Bank: "Israel would lose all of its support from the United States if that happened." I'm not sure any American president has ever laid down such a clear red line relating to an Israeli action.
