How is it Israel ceasefire deal and in the meantime he urge Israel to accept it

[joannahampton]

There is no way Netanyahu will agree to this bc he will then face trials in Israel

[azimuddin-eqiv]

"You give me all your leverage, and then we'll negotiate." 😂

[nakhan]

Israel get out of Palestine, USA get out of entire middle east.

[muhammedthegambian]

😂😂😂remember, lDf said it would fight at least till end of the war..
Think so it's a trap

[wffhjml]

No way did Israel come up with this proposal! It's a US proposal that's being presented as one put forward by Israel in order to try and salvage any crumbs of dignity they've got left and to avoid them being totally humiliated.

[abacus]

There is no 'deal'. 600 food trucks a day was a given -it's not a 'concession'.
Gaza is now 2 ISRAELI OPEN AIR PRISONS divided by the Netzarim Corridor.

[presbiteroo]

One state, equal civil rights, Palestinian prime minister.

[muhammedthegambian]

😂😂don't think so...
IDF does not want peace...

[ywrxkbr]

Joe, you're a little too late. The ship has sailed. You still have the power to bully your allies. Have fun.

[ESC_Mike]

Haha! Israelis held by Palestine are “hostages” but Palestinians held by Israel are “Prisoners” 😂😂😂😂 the language is laughable.

[Some]

Us and qutrr made the deal and hopes Israel and humus agree to it

[FawazShalan]

Why is the word “comprehensive” is between inverted commas? Because it’s NOT

[josephcostello]

Including the release of innocent detainees held indefinitely and those from child torture prisons in a ceasefire arrangement is both a humanitarian and strategic imperative. The indefinite detention and reported torture of children and adults not only violate international human rights standards but also perpetuate a cycle of mistrust and hostility. Releasing these individuals as part of a ceasefire agreement would address significant moral and ethical concerns, demonstrating a commitment to upholding human dignity and international law. This action would serve as a crucial confidence-building measure, showing a genuine willingness to rectify past injustices and foster a more humane and just approach to conflict resolution.

Furthermore, the inclusion of detainee release in a ceasefire arrangement could significantly contribute to de-escalating tensions and creating a more stable environment for peace negotiations. By addressing one of the core grievances of the affected communities, this step could reduce the impetus for retaliatory violence and foster a sense of goodwill. It would send a powerful message that both sides are serious about achieving a lasting peace, willing to make tangible concessions for the greater good. This move could also garner international support and strengthen the legitimacy of the ceasefire, laying a more solid foundation for future diplomatic efforts and long-term reconciliation.

Wow, someone at the White House really has a brain

[ro]

It doesn't feel like a good deal, can't put my finger on it, but stil...

[avorfm]

"Urging Hamas to come to the table" ? The other way around DW. It is essentially the same as the last proposal in Egypt which ISRAEL walked away from. Try to be honest in your endemically biased reporting, just once !!

[devildevil]

Can't believe the EU is still being guided by the us Israel 😂😂

[jog]
