our protests might have an impact in the long run

They already had an impact. We caused the ceasefire. It didn't last, but we bought a little bit of peace.

That's some crack smoking there. The so-called cease-fire was a quid-pro-quo from Bibi for not giving Biden anything.

That's exactly it. It was a PR stunt to make Trump look strong and assertive. And the genocide never stopped, the ceasefire was anyway violated almost immediately, and Israel's efforts were just redirected to genociding the west bank instead.

And you trust Netanyahu's word on why the ceasefire? He is a liar who won't admit the power of his enemies.

Bibi didn't have to say a thing. This is an old tried-and-true election ploy.

Reagan used it with Iranian hostages. People dont' even know that it was so successful.
