Israel-Gaza Deal: what it looks like
Current status, and Vanesa Beeley provides the terms
Netanyahu says a disagreement with Hamas has been resolved and Friday Jan 17 the Israeli cabinet will vote on the proposal. While 2 minor “right wing” Zionist parties are unhappy with the deal and an end to the war, it is said that Netanyahu has the votes to win tomorrow.

This sounds like a terrible deal. Why so many terrorists released for only 33 hostages, some of whom may not even be living. Why not ALL of the hostages and a one to one human exchange ?
If Trump can also end the war in Ukraine, he earns a place on Mt. Rushmore.
