The article presents an interesting say on the Israel-Hamas conflict. Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu’s dismissive response to the cease-fire suggests a right-wing approach, indicating Israel's position of strength, and a decline to concede. Blinken’s appeal for 'Humanitarian Pauses' and protections show US's willingness to act as an arbitrator. It might suggest a shift of power dynamics in the region, with USA asserting its role diplomatically. Netanyahu's imposition of a condition—release of Israeli hostages—points to the complexities of the situation and the leverage that Hamas might have.
