Truce. Cartoon of 25/11/2023 in CTXT
TR: Netanyahu shakes hands with Death and says: "I give you four days of your own business".
Tomorrow, at seven o'clock in the morning, if there is no extension, the truce initially planned for four days, which they have called a "humanitarian pause", will come to an end, although Qatar claims that Israel and Hamas have reached an agreement to extend it for two more days.
During these days, both states have exchanged hostages, although in the case of the Palestinians, all the media have called them "prisoners", including a good number of teenagers that Israel is holding hostage.
No matter when the pause ends, there is no sign of a permanent ceasefire, so Israel will resume its genocidal activity.
On Friday 24 November, Netanyahu was pissed off as a monkey at statements made by Pedro Sanchez and Belgian Prime Minister Alexander de Croo during a visit to the Rafah border crossing between Egypt and the Gaza Strip, where they discussed Israel's disproportionate response and its inhumane punishment of civilians in the Gaza Strip and the recognition of the Palestinian state.
And Netanyahu's response was the usual one, accusing Sánchez and De Croo of "supporting terrorism". You know how this Israeli army propaganda works, anyone who does not support, applaud and approve of its ethnic cleansing and historical violations of human rights in Palestine will end up being considered a terrorist and anti-Semite. Then they called the ambassadors to scold them, proving again what we already know, that they have no intention to stop murdering civilians.

Netanyahu wants to overlook the fact that since the declaration of independence issued by the Palestine Liberation Organisation in 1988, 136 UN countries already recognise the state of Palestine.
Nine of these countries belong to the EU: Bulgaria, Cyprus, Czech Republic, Hungary, Malta, Poland, Romania, Slovakia and Sweden (the latter has recognised it since 2014).
Although Sánchez's position, which many are now calling "courageous", seems rather lukewarm to me because it was not accompanied by any proposals for sanctions or blockades, it is not bad either. Less is nothing, which is just what the Palestinians now have to deal with the bombings.
