Nima and Pepe sort out the many questions surrounding the much discussed and announced ceasefire between Israel and Hamas, which seems to have become a possible reality only under the direction of Trump. Indeed, the first question that Pepe settles is the question of who gets the credit for this deal, if it comes to fruition, Biden or Trump, and the answer is unequivocal: Trump. Obviously, considering Trump’s long-established ties with the Zionist entity and his personal debt to prominent Zionist billionaires, not to mention family links (his son-in-law is Jewish and Zionist) and a cabinet full of rabid Neocon zionists, many people have great reservations about the future of Gaza and Palestinians in general during his rule.

Escobar is a realist as all or most individual observers are of West-Asia. Not all Israelis are monsters and there are national sensibilities on how they react to criticism. One of the most terrifying acts for an Israeli is that of hostage taking as the loss of personal freedom. If and when (one hopes) that all hostages have been freed by Hamas, then hopefully there will be some understanding of what Israel did to Gaza. The mad superstructure of their society may no longer be tolerated.
As for Trump, he wants peace in West Asia aiming of it to be a political bloc against Iran and China. The Abraham accords are meant to create a sort of cooperation between through European colonialism created borders. It would in a way be a nod towards tribalism. But peace is a dangerous sword as JFK experienced.
And despite the overabundant expressions of compassion for the hostages in Gaza, the ones that were released appeared hale and well, healthy in mind and body, even well fed. One wonders if any irony is recognized by the Israelis who ignore the suffering of the Palestinians. While of course the ridiculous US television propaganda is loudly commiserating with the torture and horrors these hostages have endured.
