A community for everything related to Palestine and the occupation currently underway by the occupying force known as Israel.
Anti-Zionism is not anti-Semitism. Existence is resistance for Palestinians.
Please refer to Israel as Occupied Palestine, or occupied territories. The IDF is a fascist and ethnonationalist occupying force. Israelis are settlers. We understand however that the imperial narrative (which tries to legitimise Israel) is internalised in the imperial core and slip-ups are naturally expected.
We always take the sides of Palestine and Palestinians and are unapologetic about it. Israel is an occupying power whose "defence force"'s (note the contradiction) sole purpose for existing is to push Palestinians out so they can resettle their rightful land. If you have anything positive to say about Israel we do not care.

From what I heard, the political pressure came from Hamas, which was winning the war.
Therefore, Trump had nothing to do with it.
I don't know about that. I doubt this would've happened at this time if Kamala Harris won. Palestinians have been hurt so much by the Zionist entity and Trump made a big thing about himself supposedly promoting peace in his campaign, so this might be to placate some of his supporters in the US.
Hamas was never going to be 100% defeated and Netanyahu has wanted to drag the war out for a while.
I don't know if 'Israel' is going to fully honour the deal or not. Reading through it, it seems as though they have room to maintain some form of increased occupation of the Gaza Strip. I really hope that Hamas haven't agreed to a permanent veiled/obfuscated Israeli occupation of the Netzarim and Philadelphi corridors but unfortunately that is what I suspect might be the case. But I am glad that Palestinians will be able to leave Zionist concentration camps.
