German FM says 'purely military approach' not the solution in Gaza; CIA, MI6 urge Israeli ‘compromises’ to get hostages back, detailed ceasefire proposal imminent
[GEOTV] German Foreign Minister Annalena Baerbock said on Friday that a military approach alone was not the solution to Israel's war against Hamas in the Gaza Strip.
It took all-out war to drive out the Nazis, but that’s different somehow.
"The past weekend has dramatically demonstrated that a purely military approach is no solution to the situation in Gaza," she told reporters after meeting with her Israeli counterpart Israel Katz in the coastal Israeli city of Tel Aviv.
That's what they always said about the Tamil Tigers, too. Anybody remember them?

Everybody is full of advice for those stupid juices:
CIA, MI6 chiefs urge truce-hostage deal; Burns calls for ‘hard political compromises’
One is forced to note that Hamas is not asked to sacrifice anything…
[IsraelTimes] As new proposal being finalized, spymasters issue unprecedented joint plea for ceasefire to end Gaza civilians’ ‘appalling loss of life’ and hostages’ ‘hellish confinement’.

CIA director says more detailed Gaza ceasefire proposal due in days
[GEOTV] CIA Director William Burns, the chief US negotiator trying to help secure a ceasefire in Gaza and the release of hostages by Hamas, said a more detailed proposal on the ceasefire would be made in the coming days.

"We will make this more detailed proposal, I hope in the next several days, and then we'll see," Burns said at an FT event in London on Saturday.

Yes, and no joke, I mentioned them to someone just the other day.

#9 Mrs Baerbock should take some history lessons.

In 1975 the German government agreed to a hostage deal which incentivised the East German/Soviet/Arab backed terrorists to escalate.

The subsequent much bigger 1977 hostage crisis was then resolved by a "purely military approach".
