    It doesn’t matter because if Israel doesn’t accept it, the war will continue as if it didn’t happen.

      It is still a show of good faith and progress. Egypt and Qatar would not put forward a deal that didn’t at least have a reasonable point of negotiation. So far this is the first I’ve heard about Hama’s making a serious ceasefire proposal.

      Well, I didn’t say it would be effective or not, just that it matters in the moment, it’s a focal point.

      That’s what I meant by “Wheels within Wheels”. The political chess game that is played after each move. It’s not something to be simply ignored.
