Without a list of terms for us to judge for ourselves, this article is smoke and mirrors.

No word on the terms yet, but if it requires returning hostages or any Israeli monitoring against rearmament, I imagine it's surely a non-starter for Hamas. Just seems like posturing to make it look like the US is seeking peace without forcing the total Israeli capitulation that would require.
