timesofisrael.com/negotiators-say-netanyahu-has-cold-indifference-to-the-fate-of-the-hostages/
Quick Glance: Biden Administration's Cease-Fire Efforts Under Scrutiny
- The Biden administration's aspirations to end the war in Gaza and progress towards a two-state solution for Israel and Palestine hinge on securing a temporary cease-fire and the release of Israeli hostages.
- The U.S. strategy focuses on halting the conflict momentarily, aiming for subsequent cease-fires, hostage releases, humanitarian aid, and the reconstruction of post-war Gaza under Palestinian Authority.
- Arab involvement, particularly from Saudi Arabia, is pivotal in negotiations to push Israel towards considering a separate Palestinian state amidst escalating tensions.
- With no contingency plan in place, pressures from potential Iranian strikes and the condition of the hostages in Gaza intensify the urgency for a breakthrough in the cease-fire discussions.

Quick Glance: Overcoming Hamas Challenge Amid Israel's Approach to Victory
- Despite the Israeli prime minister's assertion of being on the brink of defeating Hamas, indications suggest the cruel terror group will emerge undefeated.
- Persistently emphasizing relentless pursuit of 'total victory,' Netanyahu's aspirations may not align with reality.
- Hamas stands as a sophisticated underground organization - in the most literal and metaphorical sense.
- Israel's failure to devise a post-war strategic plan for governing Gaza echoes the missteps of the Americans in Baghdad in 2003.
Watch: Hamas “walks away every single time” in Gaza ceasefire talks, Israeli PM Netanyahu’s spokesperson, David Mencer says.

Quick Glance: Israel artist calls for Gaza ceasefire
- The representative of Israel at the international art fair is calling for an immediate ceasefire in Israel’s war on Gaza.

- It is believed that there are still individuals in Gaza, including 129 captives taken during the attacks led by Hamas on Israel on October 7, with 34 of them presumed dead.
Israel’s handling of Hamas war ‘a mistake,’ Biden says: The president reiterated a call for a six-to-eight week cease-fire during an interview.
