At this point in time this is the only conclusion that can be drawn from these preposterous hostage swap proposals. Israel has rejected them time and time again. Link
Israeli and US officials said Saturday that Washington is “not optimistic” about reaching a hostage swap deal with Palestinian factions in the Gaza Strip, but will soon present a new proposal.
Washington is drafting a new proposal, which will be presented to Tel Aviv and mediators, although the US is not optimistic about finalizing a deal soon, state-run broadcasting authority KAN reported, citing unnamed Israeli and US officials.
The officials said the US has labeled the plan that is being drafted as a “last chance proposal.”
They indicated that it “might be presented tomorrow (Sunday) or in the next few days.”
For months, the US, Qatar and Egypt have been trying to reach an agreement between Israel and Hamas to ensure a prisoner exchange and a cease-fire and allow humanitarian aid to enter Gaza. But mediation efforts have been stalled due to Netanyahu’s refusal to meet Hamas’ demands to stop the war.
Israel’s government does not want to stop the war. The hostages are not and never have been a priority for Israel’s government. Israeli citizens understand this very plainly
We see the similar activity with Ukraine, where the US strings Ukraine along while 100,000’s of thousands of Ukrainians die fighting a war they cannot win. Ukraine’s leadership is equally deranged. Regularly kidnapping and beating people to force them to fight? It’s all very sick and sickening.

Feelings being expressed- and apologies to anyone offended.
By and large the history we know is bogus. I’m certain of this because so much of what is presented as reality in right now is so absurd. It can’t and shouldn’t be taken seriously. Maybe I am aware of a tiny bit more then the average person, but, there are patterns that can be discerned over time- As long as the vast majority of people, in Canada, US, UK the so called “free world” ignore the realities of empire and the American led global order, well, I just can’t see how the situations unfolding right now can be improved. Call me frustrated.
I’d left this comment in the wrong place yesterday, sorry
