      “This thing seems to be true.”

      “Actually, this thing doesn’t seem to be true, and here’s why.”

      “So you don’t want this thing to be true, then??”

      Maybe now you can see how ridiculous you sound here.

      I didn’t state any opinion at all. I only discussed what seems politically possible right now.

        The article says they are making headway, which contradicts your post outright.

          … I’m stating my reasoning for disagreeing with the article. What I wrote is my opinion, which isn’t something an article can contradict.

              Ok so that was where you should have picked a step in my reasoning that you disagree with and explained why.

                No , that is in a debate and that is if you used reason. There have been other ceasefires between Hamas and Israel. No reply is necessary.
