Hamas has once again rejected a deal proposed by President Biden to end the conflict in Gaza. This rejection comes as no surprise, given Hamas’ long history of turning down peace agreements. What makes this deal different is that it was actually based on a proposal put forward by Hamas themselves, as confirmed by Blinken.
It is concerning that President Biden presented this deal as a “miracle” solution that was supposedly initiated by Israel, when in reality it was a modified version of Hamas’ own proposal. This raises questions about the Biden administration’s sincerity in seeking peace and the extent to which they are willing to appease terrorist organizations.

It is clear that Hamas has no intention of accepting any deal that does not involve the complete withdrawal of Israel from Gaza. This is an unreasonable demand considering the security concerns Israel faces in the region. By rejecting reasonable offers and maintaining their aggressive stance, Hamas shows that their goal is not peace, but rather the elimination of Israel.
The recent rescue of hostages in Operation Arnon highlights the challenges and risks involved in dealing with terrorist groups like Hamas. While the successful rescue was a moment of hope, it also underscores the need for a comprehensive strategy to address the root causes of conflict in the region.
Overall, the Biden administration’s handling of the Gaza conflict raises serious doubts about their commitment to supporting Israel and combating terrorism. By pushing for a deal that caters to Hamas’ demands, they are undermining Israel’s security and emboldening extremist groups. A stronger, more principled approach is needed to achieve lasting peace in the region.
