US has 'every expectation' Israel will expect ceasefire proposal

The White House believes Hamas has been weakened to a point that it cannot repeat the 7 October attack.

Speaking to ABC News on Sunday morning, White House National Security Council spokesman John Kirby said the US had “every expectation” that Israel would “say yes” to the proposed ceasefire deal if Hamas accepts.

“We’re waiting for an official response from Hamas,” he said, adding that the US hopes that both sides agree to start the first phase of the plan “as soon as possible”.

During that initial six-week pause in the fighting, Mr Kirby said the “two sides would sit down and try to negotiate what phase two could look like, and when that could begin”.

    We expect them to accept their own plan? Dude, fuck Israel at this point. This shouldn’t be newsworthy, and yet it is, because of course there’s a good chance they would reject their own plan in order to keep killing women and children.
