From the vague reports, it sounds like something like the Northern Ireland agreement where Hamas would turn their weapons over to a Palestinian authority (not THE Palestinian Authority) and they'd still be stored in Gaza. Of course, it would be a miracle (and probably impossible) if the US and Israel actually permitted anything even close to fair. I trust Hamas to hold out for a good deal. All is already lost so there's nothing to gain by capitulating now.

Craig Mokhiber's take on a platform that most of you wouldn't frequent (Facebook):

"The endless smoke and mirrors of the US-Israel Axis continue with this latest announcement of a “disarmament plan” for the resistance in Palestine. It will go nowhere.

Don’t lose sight of the facts: The Axis is fully committed to the eradication of the last remnants of Palestinian life in Palestine. Trump’s “Board of Peace” is part of this goal. The genocide continues to rage in both Gaza and the West Bank. The Israeli regime has no intention of withdrawing from any of Palestine. And people will always resist occupation, apartheid, and genocide, as is their right.

Stay focused on isolating the regime, on holding its perpetrators to account, and on freeing Palestine."

Alone with lotsjellës of other interesting stuff on Palestine action, the Spain immigrants panic etc

Hamas says there will be no handover of weapons before a full Israeli withdrawal from Gaza.

Hamas negotiating delegation member Ghazi Hamad told Al Jazeera that any discussion of disarmament is inseparable from Israel’s withdrawal and the reconstruction of Gaza.

He added that Israel will play no role in any future disarmament process, saying it would instead be overseen by a Palestinian national committee.

“We will not take any action regarding disarmament before Israel withdraws from the Gaza Strip,” Hamad said.

The remarks directly contradict claims that Hamas has already agreed to immediate disarmament under externally imposed arrangements.
