Biden said earlier this month that the U.S. was working to negotiate a hostage deal between Israel and Hamas that would pause fighting in Gaza for at least six weeks.
I don’t see that being the case tbh. Netanyahu said the IDF would enter Rafah, ceasefire or no ceasefire. And Hamas stated they wouldn’t accept any temporary ceasefire agreements. While Netanyahu could be pressured by Biden to change his position (though I doubt it), there’s just no reason for Hamas to accept an agreement that doesn’t prevent Israel from continuing their genocide next month.
I tend to agree based on past statements, but I’m also not privy to the privileged information of the intelligence community or people’s changing motivations.
We will have to wait and see. Making a prediction upon potentially incomplete information is barely better than a random guess.
