"[T]he war will continue until we achieve all of our goals: to eliminate Hamas, to return all our hostages, to eliminate Hamas, to return all our hostages, to ensure that the day after Hamas, Gaza will no longer be a threat to Israel, there will be no element in it that supports terrorism, that educates its children to terror , and who threaten the State of Israel. --Israel Prime Minister, Ben Netsnyahu
Today, meeting held by members of the r war cabinet have resulted in what appears to be satisfactory terms of agreement. Both Israel and Palestine have stated their requirements for arriving at any agreement.
Based upon the agreement to terms by both sides, Israel will release up to 300 Palestinian hostages and will do so during a 4 to 5 day ceasefire. Palestine has, also, requested that Israel allow for fuel, humanitarian aid and endure that women and children are release along with other hostages.
Israel's demands are not quite the weighted concessions made by Palestine. Israel has asked that Hamas release 50 Israeli hostages.
To seal the deal, a few more steps must be taken following the meeting held , later today, by the war cabinet. The final decision and full agreement will be made public and the public will be expected to approve or disapprove of the agreement details within 24 hours .
Included in the details is the release of the hostages. The plan states that 12 hostages will be released each day.
Tonight's war cabinet meetings , Netanyahu says, is not the end of the war. Fighting will continue and, according to the Israel Prime Minister, Israel will not end the fighting until the Hamas is eliminated.
As the war cabinet convenes tonight, hundreds upon hundreds Jewsish families anticipate the release of hostages among the 50 said to be held by Hamas.
