personality i think we should all be fucking outraged that they're trying to pass off a four day pause in their attacking as a fucking ceasefire especially since they said they would be using that time to prepare for more brutality. cynically i have to wonder if part of the reason they agreed to it is that they knew the cold, diseases, hunger, and lack of proper medical equipment would keep killing palestinians in their stead. a four day pause is a laughably small amount of time to try to address any of that, let alone recover from it. it will take years for gaza to begin to start to recover from this. the trauma will stretch beyond lifetimes. but sure, we're supposed to happy about Four Days. and i am certain that this will not apply to the vigilante settler terrorism going on in the west bank.
#i originally tried to write something like this in the tags of a post i reblogged but i accidentally refreshed the page and lost it#it is a relief to hear about the freed palestinian political prisoners especially seeing the stuff about israel trying to push the death#penalty. so there is that. but a four day break feels so endlessly cruel on a psychological level after every thing else#they are being put through#i am glad for the hostages too of course i had no idea if israel would ever be willing to take them back given the way it can use them as#justification for genicide
