I see a lot of people arguing about ceasefire on social media. It usually goes, "Israel offered a ceasefire and Hamas refused!" then "Hamas offered a ceasefire then Israel refused!". People bring up the hostages a lot but that never seems to be the sticking point in ceasefire negotiations. The sticking point is what will happen to Hamas after the ceasefire. Hamas wants to keep control of Gaza, Israel wants them completely removed from power and preferably all dead, and they've yet to come close to resolving that divide.
I want to know Manifold's thoughts- should Israel accept what Hamas' offer and let them back into control of Gaza in exchange for the remaining hostages?
Key quote:
>This required a formula stipulating the total withdrawal of Israeli troops from Gaza and a swap of hostages held in Gaza for Palestinians jailed in Israel, he[senior Hamas official Sami Abu Zuhri] told Reuters.

It's basically a dustbin option to separate out people who are voting in bad faith
@mongo I don't know whether answers can be added, if not then I hope they add that functionality soon, it might be a case of you just have to do it differently moving forward
