At noon on Tuesday, hundreds of students gathered on Cross Campus for a walkout titled “There is No Back To School in Gaza.” Students listed demands of the University, including publicly supporting a ceasefire and boosting support for Palestinian studies and scholars.

    However, the group has since engaged in negotiations, indicating that Hamas is not entirely wedded to its earlier ultimatum, two sources familiar with the discussions tell CNN.

    Kinda leaving out an important part there.

      I went from October 2023 to a timeline of the question of Palestine, and then added 2 recent articles.
      Most of these supported by links, in order to try and have a conversation in good faith.

      What I get from you is:

      Kinda leaving out an important part there.

      I am leaving literally most parts out. This is why the links are present.

      Do you have some sort of constructive comment to add, or should we leave it here?

        I asked whether or not a ceasefire is feasible at this point in the conflict. Not really looking for an extensive timeline of how we got here. Just whether or not folks protesting in the west are asking for something that’s even possible right now. So far it seems the answer is ‘no’ on the Israeli side and Hamas making an ultimatum for one but negotiating anyways. The longer this goes on, the less likely a ceasefire seems, but we just had one a month ago so I’d love to be wrong.

          A ceasefire is totally feasible, with the right amount of pressure from the international community. Well, the west/colonial states could also help by not arming Israel, recognising that Gaza is the biggest open air prison that ever existed/apartheid, recognising the right to exist of Palestine. The dehumanization of Palestinians doesn’t help either. 10000 children dead do not occur in a war, it occurs in a genocide.

          Still, even if you are not looking for a timeline, it is not possible to answer your question without taking into consideration how we got here. This is not something that started in October 2023.

          Anyways, in case you don’t like reading take a look this speech and you’ll have you answer:
