Following the Gaza peace plan unveiled by US President Donald Trump and Israeli PM Binyamin Netanyahu, you might think that those claiming Israel has perpetrated a genocide in Gaza would be pleased.
Granted, Hamas and other terror organizations were never going to be pleased with the plan, since it requires them to stop killing Jews and hand back the hostages:
A senior Hamas figure has told the BBC that the group is likely to reject Donald Trump’s peace plan for Gaza, saying it “serves Israel’s interests” and “ignores those of the Palestinian people”.
The figure said that Hamas is unlikely to agree to disarming and handing over their weapons – a key condition of Trump’s plan.
Hamas is also said to object to the deployment of an International Stabilisation Force (ISF) in Gaza, which it views as a new form of occupation.

The group’s military commander in the territory, Ez al-Din al-Haddad, is thought to be determined to keep fighting rather than accept the plan on offer.

The armed group Palestinian Islamic Jihad (PIJ), which took part in the 7 October attack and previously held some Israeli hostages, rejected the plan on Tuesday.
For Hamas, a key sticking point is thought to be that the plan requires them to hand over all of the hostages in one go – giving away their only bargaining chip.
But you might have thought those claiming to care about palestinian human rights would want to put an end to the supposed “genocide” as quickly as possible. Especially since most Gazans seem to support the plan:
Within Gaza, Palestinians were broadly supportive of the plan, but only because it would lead to an end to the war.
Resident Khadar Abu Kweik told the BBC: “The American plan has bad clauses, but I support it because it will stop the war and get rid of Hamas. Even if the devil himself brought a plan to end this hell we are living in, I would support it.”
Palestinian journalist Fathi Sabah said: “A Hamas rejection, god forbid, would mean giving Netanyahu a green light to continue the war with American and Western backing, to destroy what remains of Gaza and the central region.”
“The people of Gaza cannot bear that. They are devastated, exhausted, desperate and hopeless,” he said.
“They want a ceasefire now, not tomorrow, at any cost, even though they know the plan serves Netanyahu’s interests, is full of pitfalls, and does not reflect their aspirations,” he added.
Alas, that is not the case at all. The Israel-haters are incensed over the plan.
Exhibit A: Nasser Mashni, who thinks he is Superman, but is more like a dumb version of Lex Luthor:

He also would love to see Hamas with weapons:
Australia-Palestine Advocacy Network president Nasser Mashni said the plan offered “no justice or peace … only more killing and dispossession”.
Mr Mashni argued there were no security guarantees for Palestinians because Gaza would be disarmed, while Israel would be allowed to keep its weapons.
And we already know why.
Exhibit B: Rashida Tlaib, who thinks Gazans should decide for themselves:
Like Mashni et al, she would rather the war be prolonged and the so-called “genocide” continue.
It’s clear this is not a genuine humanitarian outcry about a “genocide,” but rather a single-minded obsession with Israel’s very existence. For those who claim to care about Palestinian lives while rejecting a plan that most of the people of Gaza support to end the war, their mask has well and truly slipped. Their primary goal isn’t peace, a ceasefire, or the well-being of the average Gazan – it is the preservation of a pretext for conflict.
Ultimately, this plan exposes the true agenda of the most extreme anti-Israel voices: they don’t want the war to end; they only want Israel to lose.
And if you really believed there was a genocide, you’d want it stopped yesterday.
Meanwhile, don’t think it is just pro-Israel voices like yours truly pointing out the obvious:
