"Urgent Call for Israel to Embrace a Ceasefire Now"

The article argues that Israel should adopt an immediate ceasefire with Hamas in order to achieve its primary objective of preserving the nation-state of Israel. By continuing the war, Israel is working against its own goal as it invites unity among Muslim, Arab, and Persian nations against Israel. The conflict also undermines the positive relationships Israel has been building with Arab donors, potentially derailing peace efforts. The article suggests that a unilateral ceasefire by Israel would disrupt Hamas's narrative, allow Arab nations to withdraw support from Hamas, and potentially pave the way for a new non-Hamas government in Gaza. It emphasizes the need for Israel to take a pragmatic approach and work towards a peaceful, long-term solution with its Arab neighbors.
