The IDF generally calls for a ceasefire when it needs to regroup or is being pushed back by Hamas. A country that 'mows the lawn' every few years is clearly in the game of wiping out Palestinians. Not just in Gaza but in the West Bank we can see a genocide taking place. It's so obvious you have to deliberately close your mind to the unspeakable brutality..

You talk about humanitarian aid yet Israel has reduced aid going into Gaza by around 1/10 of what it was before October 7th. Not only that but its restricting what kind of aid can go in, including not allowing anaesthetics in so that childern are forced to have amputation with no pain killers. That's sadistic. Also the aid isn't getting into Northern Gaza.

As for the safe zones, that's a joke. There are no safe zones in Gaza. Yours is one of many articles that pretends to be critical of Israel and its attrocities while ultimately defending the indefensible. Israel is most certainly carrying out a genocide.
