Gaza 'Ceasefire' Redefined as 'Slightly Slower Killing'
The New Arab reports Israeli attacks are still killing Palestinians in Gaza, even during a supposed ceasefire. This 'surprising' development would only shock someone who hasn't been paying attention since, say, 1948. Or maybe just the last year. The Netanyahu regime, which has repeatedly stated its intent to 'destroy Hamas'—and by extension, much of Gaza's civilian infrastructure—views pauses not
as de-escalation, but as strategic re-positioning. One might wonder how many 'ceasefires' can be broken before they're just called extended target practice. This pattern is not lost on history: Remember the Oslo Accords, the repeated violations of previous ceasefires in 2008, 2012, or 2014? The US media consistently frames these as isolated incidents, rather than a predictable outcome when one
party openly declares its intent to disregard international law. Perhaps another 'red line' needs to be drawn, or perhaps just acknowledged that those lines are merely suggestions to certain allies.
