Gaza ceasefire: Joe Biden taking big gamble - but it's the best chance yet at ending Israel-Hamas war

Joe Biden

If it succeeds, it will be a clever and strategic diplomatic maneuver.

If that doesn't happen, President Joe Biden will come off as foolish.

He is aware of the significant danger of being fooled once more by Benjamin Netanyahu, the Prime Minister of Israel.

Only a small number of people were aware that he had planned to share this information.

At around late morning, the staff at the White House made it known that the president would be giving a speech regarding the Middle East from the State Dining Room.

Prior to this, there were assumptions that he would address the outcome of the Trump trial.

Regarding the current situation in Israel-Gaza, Biden has made an unexpected statement.

People began to wonder whether the comments would address the recent Israeli attack in Rafah and the presence of their soldiers in the center of Rafah City. These actions can be seen as a direct challenge to Mr. Biden's requests for calm.

After the appearance of the president, his initial discussion was regarding the Trump trial - an occasion for the United States that he couldn't disregard.

"He stated that the American value of equality under the law has been reinforced," remarked the individual.

Next, he shifted his focus to the current events in the Middle East, which is a much more significant matter compared to the unlawful behavior of a previous leader.

He was certainly clever in delivering a single speech that demonstrated his skill in dealing with global problems, while Donald Trump was busy trying to establish his controversial reputation. It was a deliberate move on his part, no doubt.

Next, let's get to the main point of his announcement about the Middle East.

He expressed his desire for the war to come to a halt and for the subsequent day to commence. He repeated his noteworthy 14-word statement that he wishes to be commemorated.

According to Mr. Biden, Israel has approved a thorough and detailed new proposal that can be seen as a roadmap for moving forward.

He presented everything as if it originated from Israel.

However, don't be deceived. It is unlikely that Mr. Netanyahu would permit Mr. Biden to make the announcement if it were true.

Israel was caught off guard and unaware of the situation at first.

It was starting to become apparent that the White House was making a move.

In this conflict, President Biden outlined boundaries that have been disregarded.

The time had arrived for him to make a new decision and put an end to the war. He declared that it was enough and the war needed to come to a close.

He explained the reason for the current timing. According to him, Hamas was so weakened that they would not be able to carry out an attack like the one that happened on October 7th.

He stated that the plan had received the agreement of Israel, but he didn't specify which members of the Israeli war cabinet had given their approval.

Hamas was caught off guard. They were aware of a minor and unimportant proposal, but not that the President of the United States would publicly declare it from the White House.

We were not informed of the announcement like it usually happens. It was concealed until the final hour.

Surprisingly, even the allies in Europe were caught off guard. They were aware that a new proposition was brewing, and Mr. Biden would take advantage of it, but only after the ransom negotiation was completed.

According to insiders, Secretary of Foreign Affairs David Cameron was only made aware of the president's speech by Secretary of State Antony Blinken during a NATO meeting earlier today.

We've heard of this before - a deal that happens in phases, hostages being set free in exchange for prisoners, and Israel's troops withdrawing. This scenario may sound like déjà vu since we've encountered it many times.

The unique aspect of this is that it has received widespread support from the government, specifically from the White House.

The president seems to be feeling very annoyed and is taking shortcuts to regain power. It is important to note that the situation in Gaza is causing him problems with public opinion in the United States as more and more people are losing their lives.

Check it out: Israel declares that the conflict in Gaza will continue for an additional seven months. A photo of the town of Rafah is being circulated widely following an airstrike. There were numerous arrests made at a Pro-Palestinian demonstration in London.

I have a feeling that he is challenging both parties to accept the deal by making it too difficult for them to turn it down.

President Biden has never expressed support for ending the war in such a significant manner until now.

Keep in mind that he strongly supports Israel and Zionism. Up until now, he was not in favor of ending the war.

His tolerance has reached its limit. Occasionally during his 15-minute address, he seemed to be avoiding mentioning Mr. Netanyahu altogether.

"I would like to speak honestly with you today about our current position and potential possibilities. However, I cannot do this alone. It is necessary for those who desire peace to speak up and inform our leaders that they should consider accepting this proposal," he stated.

All at once, he uttered the same sentiments expressed by numerous individuals and groups, including those who protest on college campuses in the United States, several leaders from Europe and the Middle East, and naturally, citizens of America whose support he will require in the upcoming November elections.

Taking a risk is involved, but considering the numerous uncertainties, this is the greatest opportunity so far to terminate the terrible situation in Gaza.
