"Bibi" had no intention of following through with this. He pretended to do so only to ingratiate himself with trump so the US taxpayer money and bombs would continue and his frankenstein coalition would continue to keep him in power and out of prison.
Trump, as usual, just said things that sound good on fox news, claiming that he, the most peace-dealing president in the history of the universe, would win the nobel. Plus, he appointed himself the king of Gaza.

And yet, two years ago, being evil and stupid, they attacked without having hostages as bargaining chips.
