No, a ceasefire can be a precursor to a peace deal or an extended ceasefire of indeterminate. Giving up leverage in the form of hostages when fighting is guaranteed to resume in a couple months is a shitty deal and the very least Netanyahu could’ve done if he had any interest whatsoever was to keep his mouth shut.

That’s the entire reason it’s called a ceasefire; the assumption is that it’s temporary and fighting will resume.

This just in: Words have meaning and it’s how we use them to communicate.
The main purpose of words having meaning is to effectively communicate.
Ignoring the context that words are used and insisting on very narrow definitions is not only pedantic, but hinders the ideas being communicated.
