Israel-Hamas war: Cease-fire talks 'closer than we've ever been,' Biden says | LiveNOW from FOX

President Biden claims a cease-fire deal in the Middle East is closer than ever but a senior Iranian security official has warned that Iran will attack Israel if its talks with Hamas for a cease-fire in Gaza fall apart.
"One of the reasons I was late for y'all is because I was dealing with the cease-fire effort in the Middle East, and we are closer than we've ever been," Biden told the guests and reporters inside the Oval Office after signing a proclamation establishing a national monument in memorial of the Springfield 1908 Race Riot.
Only Israel and Hamas reaching a cease-fire deal would hold Iran back from a direct strike against Israel in the wake of the assassination of Hamas political chief Ismail Haniyeh in Tehran in late July, three senior Iranian officials told Reuters.
Hamas said Sunday that it would not participate in new negotiations for a cease-fire in Gaza this week unless mediators present a plan based on previous talks. Talks are expected to resume next week.
LiveNOW's Andrew Craft discussed cease-fire talks with former Marine Corps intelligence officer Hal Kempfer.

Haven’t you learned anything from the last 80 years. İsrael will come to negotiate. But hamas will not accept as usual. The world will push for one side cease fire. Hostages will be hold captive like gilad for a decade. Then when hamas regroups and rearmes they will start this all again. Thats why there should be no ceasefire until hamas total surrender.

There will never be a cease fire until there is no loner Hamas

[@mhgaffney]

No, I call b.s. on you on this. If Hamas is destroyed, Israel will continue its imperial agenda through the Mideast until an even worse crisis develops. Better to resolve the issues now than later. When the Jews set up a state in the middle of the Arab world they should have taken the wise path of cultivating friendly relations. I have studied the history in detail -- and I will tell you Israel failed to do that. Their attitude has always been arrogant and condescending. It's regrettable because the Arab peoples are mild mannered and easy to get along with -- provided one respects their customs, language and religion. But the Zionists did none of these things. Why? Because they view other peoples as sub human.
