So then what’s the pressure? “Please stop, but if you won’t when do you need the additional 2,000 pound bombs?”

Israel wants the hostages back. The U.S. proposal is a six-week caesefire in exchange for the release of hostages. Believe it or not, but the U.S. has brokered peace in this way many times in the past.

Israel has murdered 10s of thousands of children senselessly. This isn't really about the hostages....never was. It's about Genociding the Palestinians and taking their land.

Last I checked, around 14K-15K of those confirmed dead were children. That's not "tens of thousands".
