That said, I'd be right honored and delighted to have a circle-jerk with you, if we were to meet and feel so inclined.

Boomster'd rather have a circle-jerk with petros, pgs, Twin Moose, and some of our other stalwart Men of Westernesse.

Not that they're gay or nothin'.

But I'm not anti-semetic, Boom, that's the point.

Your insistence that I am though is hilarious.

Nor am I a bigot; I treat both sides of this clusterfuck with equal disdain and disregard.

I think Israel needs to keep going.

I think Hamas either needs to return ALL the people, dead or alive, abducted from Israel Oct 7th immediately if not sooner, if they want to be taken seriously & they’re ready to be serious about negotiating a cease-fire….otherwise it’s just stalling tactics (blatantly obvious stalling tactics) to up the bodycount of actual Palestinian civilians for propaganda purposes as martyrs for the Hamas/Iran cause of eradication of the Jews & their nation completely because a two state solution is no solution at all between the river and the sea, etc…& on that note:
Hamas said it would return hostages' bodies in the first phase of a truce, demanding a full IDF withdrawal from Gaza for the swap. Hamas demanded that the deal stipulate an Israeli withdraw from all areas of Gaza in the first week of the deal's implementation, and that if Israel does not do so, the release of hostages will be halted.

Hamas is also seeking a complete cessation of fire from the Israeli army and the withdrawal of the IDF from population centers on the first day of the cease-fire. On the third day, Hamas seeks an Israeli withdrawal from the Salah al-Din road. In return, Hamas offers to release three hostages - living and dead - every three days, totaling 33.

Sources in Hamas told Haaretz that "The amendments submitted are intended to ensure that the withdrawal and cease-fire be established in the first phase, and that Israel will not be able to evade the implementation of all stages of the deal and return to fighting once all the hostages are released."

Hamas also opposes any preconditions on which Palestinian prisoners could be released from Israeli jails in return, as well as their distancing from Gaza, and demands that their release be based on the amount of time they have spent in Israeli prisons. It additionally demanded in its response that China, Russia and Turkey be guarantors of the deal.

While Hamas earlier on Wednesday had said its "positive" response opened a "wide pathway" to reach an agreement, Israel said the reply was tantamount to a rejection.

White House National Security Adviser Jake Sullivan said that Hamas' proposed changes are minor (???) and that the U.S. will work with Egypt and Qatar to bridge gaps in the proposal, etc…

Will they? Why so confident?

Both sides…I hear you. The changes that Hamas has requested to a ceasefire proposal by the United States are "not significant" and include the complete withdrawal of Israeli troops from the Gaza Strip in exchange for corpses, a senior leader in the group told Reuters on Thursday.

U.S. Secretary of State Antony Blinken said on Wednesday that Hamas had proposed numerous changes, some unworkable, to the U.S.-backed proposal, but that mediators were determined to close the gaps, etc…

The senior Hamas leader said his organisation had demanded to choose a list of 100 Palestinians with long sentences to be released from Israeli jails.

The Israeli document had excluded 100 prisoners with long sentences and restricted releases to only prisoners with sentences of less than 15 years remaining, the Hamas official said.

"There are no significant amendments that, according to Hamas leadership, warrant objection," said the Hamas leader.

Hezbollah launched more than 40 rockets and five drones from Lebanon at northern Israel, causing 15 fires and wounding two Israelis. The changes requested by Hamas to the truce proposal presented by the U.S. are "not significant," a senior leader in the group said. The WHO said that 1,600 children in Gaza under 5 years old have been diagnosed with and treated for severe acute malnutrition. The U.K. Labour Party pledged to recognize a Palestinian state as a contribution to a renewed peace process.

Here's what you need to know 251 days into the war​
What happened today​
A firefighting aircraft releases flame retardant to extinguish fires caused by rockets launched from southern Lebanon which landed on the outskirts of Safed, in the upper Galilee, on Wednesday.
■ LEBANON: Hezbollah launched nonstop barrages at northern Israel including over 40 rockets and at least 5 explosive drones. Two 20-year-olds were lightly wounded in a volley fired at the Golan Heights, and 15 fires were reported. A source linked to Hezbollah told Al Jazeera that this was the group's most extensive attack on Israel since October 8.
  • An Israeli government spokesperson said that Hezbollah, its Iranian patron and the government in Beirut bear "full responsibility" for the spiraling violence across the Israel-Lebanon border, adding that "whether through diplomatic efforts – or otherwise – Israel will restore security on our northern border."

  • A senior Biden administration official said "We are very concerned about the escalation on the blue line between Israel and Lebanon over the last two weeks" and described it as a "major escalation."

  • IDF reservists were filmed launching a fireball with a trebuchet towards Lebanon, with the intent of burning trees and plants used by Hezbollah to conceal infrastructure and troop activity along Israel's border.
"'People in south Lebanon don't support Israel, but they do oppose the way Hezbollah operates,' says Rami, who for eight months now has been staying at his family's apartment in Beirut, where he sought refuge with his parents after fleeing the southern town of Naqoura. 'They realize that if a rocket is launched from their village, there will be an Israeli response, and there's nobody to protect them.' Many people Haaretz spoke with feel this way; they're not happy about the decision [by Hezbollah] to join the fighting" – Sheren Falah Saab

■ HOSTAGES/CEASE-FIRE: The changes that Hamas requested to the cease-fire and hostage release deal proposal presented by the U.S. are "not significant" and include the complete withdrawal of Israeli troops from Gaza, a senior leader within the group told Reuters.
  • The Hamas official added that the organization demands it selects a list of 100 Palestinians with long-term sentences to be released from Israeli jail, the lifting of the Israeli blockade on Gaza, the free movement of people and goods within Gaza, and three "interconnected and continuous phases" of cease-fire.

  • An Israeli source involved in the negotiations for a cease-fire told Haaretz that despite Hamas' demands, which were understood in Israel as a rejection of the proposal, "Talks will continue through Qatari and Egyptian mediators, in coordination with the U.S., in order to see whether a deal can be reached."

  • Turkish President Recep Tayyip Erdogan called on members of the UN Security Council, particularly the U.S., to pressure Israel into a cease-fire in Gaza after the Council backed a U.S.-drafted resolution backing a truce proposal earlier this week.

GAZA: According to the head of WHO, 1,600 children in Gaza under 5 years old have been diagnosed with and treated for severe acute malnutrition, and 8,000 have been diagnosed with acute malnutrition.​
  • The IDF said operations in Rafah and across central Gaza are ongoing.

  • The IDF denied the claim made by the official Palestinian news agency WAFA and reported by CNN that it struck in a designated "safe zone" in Al-Mawasi in southern Gaza early Thursday.

  • According to the Hamas-controlled Health Ministry in Gaza, at least 37,232 Palestinians have been killed and 85,037 wounded since the start of the war.

"The absence of a deal, on the backdrop of Netanyahu's continued empty promises of a total victory, will put pressure on the army to continue attacking in Gaza without a visible strategic goal. This will endanger the lives of the remaining hostages in Gaza. There really is no way of replicating Saturday's impressive rescue of four hostages held in the Nuseirat refugee camp. This situation apparently determines the continuation of hostilities in the north" – Amos Harel

■ WEST BANK: Israeli military forces exchanged fire with Palestinian militants in a village near the city of Jenin Thursday, in an operation intended to uncover explosive devices. The army raided a house where, according to the IDF, two wanted men inside were shot and killed by Israeli forces.​
  • The Mayor of Jenin said Israeli forces operating in the city harmed water and electricity infrastructure, phone lines and sewage systems. Other sources said private property, including shops and vehicles, was damaged in the Israeli operation.

■ ISRAEL: Eliran Mizrahi, the reservist who was diagnosed with PTSD and killed himself after receiving an emergency call-up order to serve, was laid to rest in a military funeral after the IDF revoked its initial decision and decided to acknowledge him as a fallen soldier.​
  • The body of a man wearing a combat vest and a shirt with Arabic writing on it was found in a state of advanced decomposition near the Gaza border, Israel Police said. According to a preliminary assessment, he is believed to be a terrorist who participated in the Hamas attack on October 7.

■ PALESTINIAN STATE: The U.K. Labour Party, ahead in polls before the July 4 election, pledged to recognize a Palestinian state as a contribution to a renewed peace process.​
