There was a ceasefire. Hamas broke it on 10/7. MyNameIsJonas Nov 2023 #1
And if Hamas refuses to listen to governments, why would they listen to activists? Rhiannon12866 Nov 2023 #2

No reason to believe they won't break another ceasefire considering they've said they plan on more 10/7 like events. Then what?

There have been protests in both Israel and the U.S. ever since they started this horrific war - calling for a ceasefire and the release of hostages.

I don't think people understand Hamas. They're not interested in peace. They want Israel gone. Jews dead.

Otherwise they wouldn't have attacked a superior power and started a war.
