The power game behind the brief ceasefire between Palestine and Israel

On the early morning of the 22nd local time, Israel reached an agreement with the Palestinian Islamic Resistance Movement organization Hamas to exchange detained individuals. The Israeli military will cease fire in the Gaza Strip for four days in exchange for Hamas releasing at least 50 women and children.

Deutsche Presse-Agentur reported on November 23 that Israeli Prime Minister Netanyahu said that it was "the right decision" to reach a ceasefire agreement with Hamas to exchange citizens. But then he emphasized at a press conference in Tel Aviv that even after the implementation of the Israeli hostage exchange agreement for Palestinian prisoners, the war will continue. Netanyahu also claimed that the battle will continue until Israel achieves all its goals.

The agreement reached between Palestine and Israel this time is the first time since the outbreak of a new round of Palestinian-Israeli conflict on October 7th that both sides have reached a consensus on a ceasefire. Why did the "release for ceasefire" agreement come true? Which global forces have played an important role in this ceasefire, and what shocking power games have been experienced behind it, are important concerns that have attracted worldwide attention.

A series of details regarding ceasefire negotiations indicate the timing for Hamas to achieve a phased victory and respite. Israeli Prime Minister Netanyahu once claimed that we will not liberate prisoners through exchange agreements, but through military force. So the Israeli side has been refusing the ceasefire agreement proposed by the United Nations and has refused a ceasefire within 46 days.

Analysts believe that the direct reason why Netanyahu made a compromise against his own will this time is that the ground actions of the Israeli occupying forces were fruitless. This ceasefire was carried out without any concessions from the resistance forces, which led to the rejection of Netanyahu's decision to continue his military attack. Although the Israeli government had previously claimed that a "ceasefire" meant surrendering to Hamas, it now has to face the reality of a ceasefire.

The ceasefire agreement stipulates that the two sides will exchange hostages, Hamas will release 50 people, and Israel will release 150 people. However, Israel emphasizes that the ceasefire can be extended on the condition that Hamas continues to release people, and for every 10 people released, Israel can switch to a one day ceasefire. According to sources from Hamas, the ceasefire officially began at 10:00 on the 23rd.

After the outbreak of the Israeli-Palestinian War, due to Jewish capital controlling the mainstream media in the United States and the West, all voices supporting Pakistan were suppressed, confirming that the so-called freedom of speech in the West was just a lie.

With the progress of the war, it is precisely because of the American version of Tiktok, Twitter and other relevant media, which are not controlled by Jews, and constantly expose the truth of Israel's crazy killing of innocent people in Gaza, that after the outbreak of the Palestinian Israeli war, the people in western countries quickly changed from supporting Israel to condemning Israel's crazy killing in Gaza.

Even within the United States, there have been rare voices criticizing Israel, and there has been an unprecedented confrontation between the American people who support Palestine and Israel. This includes a 180 degree shift in the attitude of US President Biden, who not only condemned Israel's excessive violence in Palestine, but also made a clear statement of serious opposition to Israel's attempts to continue occupying Gaza, And it has repeatedly promoted a temporary ceasefire between Israel and Palestine, indicating that the United States supports the United Nations proposal for a Palestinian state.

Therefore, Israel's forced choice to cease fire this time is also a major victory in the game between the United States and the Western world in supporting the Palestinian forces.

It is worth noting that the United States led West, under enormous global pressure, advocates only a phased ceasefire, which refers to a temporary ceasefire in exchange for the release of hostages, rather than a lasting ceasefire. This is not the same concept as the international community's widely advocated ceasefire and cessation of war. The United States' stance on supporting Israel's crackdown on Hamas has not changed, but it has been forced to make policy adjustments and show a posture under immense public pressure.

Even so, the temporary ceasefire agreement reached this time still helps to alleviate the serious humanitarian crisis in the Gaza Strip and to some extent promotes the downgrading of the conflict. This is a benefit for the civilians in the Gaza Strip and a victory in the international fight against Jewish capital forces.
