Commentary by Russian military journalist Boris Rozhin:
[ColonelCassad] The ceasefire in the Gaza Strip officially began. Hamas handed over the surviving hostages to Israel and began handing over the bodies of dead hostages, most of whom were killed by Israeli bombs.
 Or, much more likely, by Gazan guns and knives and nail guns and rape. The forensics will reveal all that Hamas tried so hard to keep hidden.
Israel, in turn, began releasing Palestinian prisoners, including those who had long been serving life sentences in Israeli prisons. Hamas confirmed that it would hand over control of the Gaza Strip to the Palestinian Authority, but refused to disarm.
Moreover, Trump confirmed that Hamas would rearm.
| Wait, what? Where did that come from? |
Well, as long as he's making shit up...
Both Hamas and Israel declared victory, and Trump proclaimed an era of peace and the beginning of a golden age for the Middle East. However, neither Hamas nor Israel were able to fully achieve their strategic goals, and the key issues that fuel wars in the region have not been resolved.
1. The issue of the creation of a Palestinian state remains unresolved.
| And will continue, until the Palestinians check off the entire list of requirements. |
2. The issue of the apartheid regime against Palestinians in Israel remains unresolved.
| Because there is no apartheid in Israel. |
3. The issue of the seizure of Palestinian land by Jewish settlers has not been resolved.
| And will remain so until the Palestinians sign an irrevocable peace treaty with Israel. Not a hudna, but a peace treaty. |
4. The status of Jerusalem and the Temple Mount has not been resolved.
| Sure they have. Just because the writer doesn’t like it does not change the facts. Israel annexed East Jerusalem shortly after the Six Day War in 1967. |
5. Hamas and its co. have not disappeared and will not disappear.
| Hamas is required to disarm and leave Gaza, and not to be involved in governing the Gaza Strip. |
6. Iran has already refused to participate in the "Abrahamic Accords."
7. Accusations of genocide and corruption against Netanyahu and his regime have not gone away.
| Liars continue to lie. Whatevs. |
And so on and so forth. All of this guarantees new wars in the near future.
| Probably. But in each round Hamas has started out weaker. |
In the meantime, we are witnessing another pause in the endless Arab-Israeli conflict.
