Trump says Israel has agreed to conditions for 60-day Gaza ceasefire

Tony TONY SAYS:
So, listen up, you’re gonna hear about this Gaza sh*t-show, right? Trump’s involved, which already tells ya something’s outta whack. This ceasefire thing? Sixty days, he says. Sixty days of *what*? More of this back-and-forth bullsh*t? Sounds like a freakin’ extended commercial break in a war nobody wants to watch anymore. He’s blabbing about it on Truth Social, that pathetic excuse for a social media platform. Says the Qataris and Egyptians are bringing this “final proposal.” Final proposal, my ass. These guys are like the freakin' wiseguys trying to mediate a family dispute, you know? They make a show of talking to the bosses, but they can't make the *real* decision. It’s all smoke and mirrors, capisce? Trump’s sayin’ Hamas better take this deal, otherwise it’s gonna get worse. He's right, though. It *will* get worse. Always does, doesn't it? What's a little more fire in a already-burning building gonna hurt at this point? The thing is, Israel ain't even confirmed they agreed to anything yet. These guys are tighter than a drum, these Israelis. They're not gonna show their cards unless they gotta. Hamas? Dead silent. Probably busy counting their freakin' hostages. Fifty of 'em, they say. Twenty still kickin', maybe. The rest… well, let's just say they went to meet their maker. Trump's gonna meet with Netanyahu next week, and he's gonna be "very firm," he says. Firm? The guy’s a fuckin’ blusterer. He throws around the word "firm" like it's a f*cking sprinkle on a cannoli. Remember that time I went to the shore, right? You guys know the story about that guy who was being "firm" with the guy he owed money to? Yeah, not so firm. Ended up with a broken nose, but that's a whole other story. This Dermer fella, Israel's Strategic Affairs Minister, is running around Washington like a chicken with its head cut off, meeting with everyone and their mother. Rubio, Vance... a whole bunch of these pencil-necked geeks. They’re probably just trying to make it look like they’re doin’ something. You know, for the cameras. Israel’s ambassador to the UN, Danon, is on the BBC, callin’ Hamas “hardball.” Like they didn't expect that, the geniuses! It’s a war, not a f*cking board game. Of course they’re playing hardball. They got the upper hand, what else would you expect them to do? He's saying more military pressure is the only option to get the hostages back. That’s a simple equation: more bombs, more pressure. Always works in business, doesn’t it? Doesn't always work with people, but this is the only language they understand. They say the conflict ends when Hamas is wiped off the map. That’s a f*cking pipe dream, a fantasy, a total waste of oxygen if you ask me. You can’t just erase people, you can't just erase an ideology. It’s like trying to get rid of roaches – you gotta hit 'em hard, but you gotta hit 'em smart too. You can't just spray and pray. This whole thing is a mess, a goddamn sh*t sandwich. But hey, at least there's plenty of drama. Keeps things interesting, eh? You gotta admit, it’s more entertaining than watching paint dry. Now, who wants another espresso? And someone get me a goddamn sandwich. I’m starving.
