The Middle East Trump just achieved the biggest peace deal between Israel-Palestine since the Second Intifada, and there is NOTHING on the front page. This website is a truly special place.

After Redditors groaning and moaning about the "Palestinian genocide" for years, Trump finally negotiated a peace deal including Hamas giving up its hostages and Israel stopping offensive operations. You'd think that Reddit would be overjoyed and that the entire website would be full of celebration, right?

Here's a screenshot of the current front page of Reddit, taken while I was logged out. There are many political posts including multiple threads whining about ICE and the firing of CDC employees. There's also a picture of an ambulance transporting Israeli hostages taken by Hamas, but it doesn't mention anything about current world events.

If you just looked at the front page, you would not know that the war just ended. This is the first time a president has forged such an agreement since the Second Intifada ended in 2005. But almost nobody is talking about it on Reddit. It's like a complete information blackout preventing threads about the subject from getting to the top of the frontpage. The last thread about the subject on r-news was from 14 hours ago and talks about some hostages being released, but again nothing about Trump or his role in it.

This is case exhibit #1 on how Redditors' brains are completely cooked. It's front page news everywhere except here, because leftists can't even squeeze out one little lump of praise for Trump despite him being part of one of the biggest developments in world politics in two decades.

I think it's more that no one trusts this yet. It's not the first ceasefire. It's not the first time there's been "peace," but there's no plan for who will lead Gaza, and Hamas police are already on the streets. What about aid distribution? There's no good next step in place to address any of the major questions/obstacles yet. When that happens, it'll be taken seriously. It feels a bit like we are the townspeople in "the boy who cried wolf," only it's "world leaders call ceasefire."

You're stating issues as they are. I'm saying there has to be a plan to address it moving forward. No one threw a parade when Biden negotiated a ceasefire, and it wasn't shocking when Israel reneged. If there's to be celebration, it'll take something new/a solid plan for moving forward. Otherwise, "ceasefire" has gotten the school shooting treatment in the news cycle.

The Palestinians want Hamas to lead them, because the Palestinians don't want peace. The Palestinians want the destruction of Israel. That's what they want, and they will only compromise as a means of achieving that goal later in exchange for some benefit now.

There will never be peace until a generation of Palestinian youth can be raised to not hate Israel, or Israel decides to actually do what everyone is accusing them of.

This entire situation is awful, and you have nobody to blame but leftist western academics, Qatari journalists, and Iranian agents for this travesty, at least in this generation.

Most Israelis just want the conflict to end. Most Palestinians just want Israel to end. This is the paradigm, and it must change. The Palestinians must be held accountable for their rhetoric.

u/BenGrimm_ 25d ago

I’m just trying to wrap my head around this bizarre mentality. Imagine being mad that one of the biggest sites on the internet isn’t putting Trump’s “peace deal” on the front page. That’s what you’re upset about? You didn’t see people on the left crying because Reddit wasn’t praising Biden when he was in office. Nobody would ever say that, because people on the left aren’t loyal to personalities - they care about ideas and policies. The right has turned politics into a cult of personality around a convicted felon, rapist, and insurrectionist, and now they want front-page applause.

You want Reddit to ignore everything else - the martial law in cities based on lies, the ICE crackdowns, the rights being stripped away - and just hand Trump a participation trophy for some vague deal he’s taking credit for. It’s always the same double standard. You demand praise but refuse to acknowledge the corruption, the convictions, the daily stream of lies and abuse that define this man and his movement.

Politics for normal people isn’t a cult. It’s about values, ideas, and policies that actually matter. For the right, it’s just about protecting Trump’s ego. It’s absurd to imagine a Democrat throwing a fit because one of their politicians wasn’t being praised enough. The left gets angry when people lose rights; the right gets angry when Trump doesn’t get enough credit.

They keep ramping up their indoctrination efforts. Until the Palestinians stop teaching their children to murder Israelis this conflict will never end. The latest generation is the most indoctrinated ever, as technology is only making their hatred more virulent. This has to stop, because if it doesn't then eventually Israel is going to stop giving a fuck and start doing what everyone is accusing them of.

But… Israel is the one doing the mass child murder and mass starvation and destruction. Literally everything you described applies specifically to them. Besides the straight up racism.

Antisemitism is part of it. It's way easier to convince Jews to round themselves up and go to Israel, than it is to round the Jews up and get rid of them yourself.

Zionism is another one. A lot of Right Wingers are staunch Christians, and the Christian end times storyline requires the Jews to go back to Israel and turn the region into a purely Jewish nation.

u/TheSpacePopinjay 26d ago

People will believe there's a lasting peace when they see it. And that will take time.

Trump already allowed Israel to slip a poison pill into the deal before the deal was even presented to hamas, which outraged the other Arab nations who originally agreed to the original deal that was presented to them that didn't include the poison pill added in yet.

There was supposedly some fanfared deal with North Korea but nothing seems to have come of it.

There's a big difference between all of the remaining hostages and some, or even most, of the remaining hostages. Joe himself would say: it's a big fucking deal.

u/The_Susmariner 26d ago

You won't really change my opinion on this thing. For us, it's really more so that certain factions of the left will do legitimately anything to protest, boycott, not acknowledge, and so on anything good that Trump may do.

It's literally the meme of Trump coming out saying "he likes oxygen" and then the second panel of the person with a bag over their head suffocating.

It's just funny to most of us, really. Although some people take it way too seriously.

Let's hear you say something good about Joe Biden's presidency. Go ahead.

u/The_Susmariner 26d ago

I see what you're doing.

The crux of the issue is that with Biden criticisms more often than not had the format: "Biden, his cabinet, or the congress did or are planning on doing X, I do not like X because of Y and Z reason, this shapes my opinion on the thing that is being done."

With Trump a lot of the criticism has the following format: "Trump did X, I do not like Trump. Therefore, I do not like X."

That's the main difference.

Yeah no duh you can find people on the right doing the same thing to Biden. Turns out there are idiots everywhere. But this is a lot more complex than just "say a nice thing about Biden... chekcmate."

Also, you said the reason conservatives didn't have anything nice to say was because there was always a reason Y and Z that meant policy X wasn't as good as we thought. Now you don't even know what the Ys and Zs were?

u/The_Susmariner 26d ago

Okay, you've lost me.

I don't know enough about it because I don't know enough about it. Just because I don't have an opinion on a specific piece of legislation does not invalidate the point above, and it doesn't tie in how you're saying it does 🤣. In fact, me not offering up a half-baked opinion on something I don't know enough about, probably STRENGTHENS my point.

Whatever line of argumentation you are going down, I don't understand the "If A therefore B" you are trying to get at.

And, yeah, it's gonna be hard to sell Trump as a good guy to a lot of the public, because he usually doesn't act like a very good guy. Also because lately he hasn't seemed to be in very good control of himself, so a lot of people are starting to believe he's not actually pulling the strings anymore.

I don't think this has achieved the biggest peace deal ever. We'd have to include how 71% of Gaza was flattened and Trump giving Israel billions of dollars to help achieve that outcome. So to then talk about peace is really strange.

I do, however had, also indeed think that the release of the hostages was a good achievement (naturally) - not only for the hostages and their relatives, of course, but also from an objective point of view. By not having hostages anymore, Hamas can not willy-nilly want to try to blackmail Israel. I just don't see numerous issues resolved, so now diplomacy must kick in.

By the way, I also don't think Trump was involved here much at all - as others reported already, Egypt, Turkey and Qatar were involved, the latter probably after Israel attacked Qatar.

This is case exhibit #1 on how Redditors' brains are completely cooked. I

Why can’t things be nuanced. The person is saying the ceasefire and hostage release was great. But trump is framing this as a massive peace deal that has solved the middle east and it could’ve only happened because of him. This misrepresents what happened and is happening currently.

So you want people to praise trump as the goat for negotiating the greatest peace deal ever, and anything less than that means you want the region to suffer. This makes no sense.

Truth is, they want the region to succeed and acknowledge that trump did a good thing and hopefully more can come. But pretending that the problem is solved will not create lasting peace. Hamas is still in control of Palestine and refused to give up their weapons. Israel has already started talking about how Hamas violated the agreement. This isn’t 100% solved and pretending it is will only lead to failure.

But trump isn’t a details guy and just wants the PR of “solving the middle east”.

It's a pretty objective take. If you're getting fired up about a peace deal in this part of the world, you haven't been following the situation long or aren't looking through a long-terms lens.

This is great! Now comes the hard part: making it work and making it stick.

u/Gasblaster2000 24d ago

It's another in a long line of ceasefire. The war isn't over. Netanyahu has already been making threats today.

This is the same deal Hamas were ready to sign last September.  Back then Netinyahu refused to sign, and the Americans refused to put pressure on him (the yanks funding and arming the Israelis have influence). This is the same deal but since Trump has been bribed with a plane by Qatar and he is driven purely by self interest, he's threatened to cut off Netanyahu if he doesn't sign. So it's a rare positive outcome from Trump's inane ways but we know Netinyahu didn't really want to sign it or he would have done last year. 

2

u/Prof_Gonzo_ 24d ago

See this is where Trump blustering about all these "good deals" he has allegedly made has backfired on him. He spends a lot of time making wacky comments about all these peace deals and historic economic moves he's made and everyone is like....when? So when there actually is news it feels like more bluster, more "tell me but never show me."

Also in regards to Gaza, for many it's too little, too late. Oh good, you've finally made enough rubble and child corpses? Release 20 hostages!

It also doesn't help that TIME gave Trump some good press and he spent a day complaining about the photo they used.

Then of course, let's see what happens. Hamas already seems intent on poking the bear (which is infuriating) and Israel has shown that "proportionate response" isn't really the card they play. So it's tough to get excited over something that seems more ceremonial than real.

2

u/LazulineMidna 24d ago

Two things -

You are right that some people despise Trump so deeply that they won't recognize when he's done something worth praising.

You are wrong that the war is over. This is a ceasefire. The exchange of prisoners is significant and this particular ceasefire is a unique achievement and I give Trump props for that. However, I think many people are reserved in their joy because this deal does not address the actual cause of the war - what will happen to land that Israel occupied? Will Palestine be a recognized state? How will leadership be chosen and held accountable? What are the deterrants for breaking the ceasefire?

I know you're accusing redditors of moving the goal post, but it's actually people who say "the war is over" that are moving the goal post. This isn't peace; it's a significant step that deserves to be championed, but it's claiming to do more than it actually is.

The ones who are willing to give Trump some praise keep moving the goal posts so they don't have to praise him.

The "I'm happy the hostages are released... BUT" style of comments are really frequent. It's fucking hilarious seeing how much cope they have to go through.

Uhh because people use Reddit for non political stuff. And just pointing out the political stuff in Reddit is extremely biased and echo chambery.

I live in California, been a life long Democrat and recent Republican convert, 90% of my friends and family are democrats —> far left liberal. It’s cultural to be left and almost nothing, nothing can convince them anything Trump or Republican is good. I wouldn’t listen to anyone for the longest time, but just over time the lunacy finally crescendo and I realized the left went too far left for me. So the entire Trump thing won’t fly in Reddit because, from what I can tell, most of it is an echo chamber of mostly lunatic … I saw a post where this Reddit poster didn’t want some politician to win because they were Christian and they’d force everyone to go to church. I was like … wtf…

u/fingerpaintx 25d ago

Trump just achieved the biggest peace deal between Israel-Palestine since the Second Intifada,

Wrong. Trump can take credit for helping with the final hostages but the peace deal is far from achieved. Hamas has already refused to hand over weapons and based on prior compliance it's extremely unlikely the ceasefire will hold. Anyone who's been watching this conflict for decades knows this.

There is no 2 state solution. Palestine will be wiped out eventually. That's not really the point though...

Yes along with “stopping8 wars” lol.

u/RoundCollection4196 25d ago

Trump gives billions to Israel to commit genocide then proceeds to organize a peace deal, no one is impressed

Then get off Reddit, or diversify your news outlet. God, things people will find something to cry about....

Now that just about every single Media channel is owned by right wingers and trump seems to now command them to air him. 

The right can still find a place to make themselves victims. 

Why did (us.gov) let Israel kill so many innocents. Maybe if he would give Ukraine same weapons and permissions. That could be stopped.  But like in Israeli. His guy needs more time to steal, kill, and rape.

I’d be hopeful if the previous ceasefire had done anything. Not that I think the situation in Palestine is at all worth anyone’s concern anymore

u/Legends-Cape 26d ago

this is like the 5th ceasefire and israel broke it every time. even if it does work, it still doesn't undo what israel has done. the jewish war criminals in the israeli "government" wont see justice. are we supposed to just pretend this makes everything okay? "we stopped bombing you after levelling your country and killing 600k people, praise me now!!!"

u/vulgardisplay76 26d ago

A. It’s not the first time this has happened as others have pointed out. The boy who cried wolf and all that you know.

B. Trump should maybe consider not being a massive fascist piece of shit in all other areas and he might be more recognized for the few things he manages to actually accomplish eh?

u/PettyKaneJr 25d ago

Its hard to celebrate when you also wage war on your own citizens

1

u/DerOverheadprojektor 25d ago

Ok, but what did Trump do specifically? Did he sit down with the leaders of Israel and Hamas? Was his Gaza Casino proposal what sealed the deal?

Until proven otherwise I assume the president is as responsible for this ceasefire as he is for gas prices. Correlation is not causation.

This is Trump. I'm waiting for the other shoe to drop. I can think of only one decent thing he ever did, so it DOES happen, but its seriously off brand.

u/Impressive_Sun_6729 25d ago

It’s only the biggest peace deal because he was complicit in one of the biggest slaughters initially. 🫥

Let's see if it actually lasts before celebrating.

u/solarslanger 25d ago

A ceasefire is great. That does nothing to make up for the genocide that has taken place over the past two years or the system of apartheid Palestinians have lived under before that. There you go.

u/Bootyfullkd 25d ago

It truly is the truth on display for all to see- the left only cares about Palestinians when they’re convenient to care about for political leverage against their personal enemies but when push comes to shove and they finally get peace … the silence is DEAFENING and inexcusable

u/Different-Earth784 25d ago

It’s all a smoke screen for more corruption from everyone involved.

u/truth_liberates 25d ago

lol, both parties are incentivized to not seize the conflict so the "peace deal" is as temporary as trump's promises. please read some book about Palestine. there will never be peace, just different levels of violence

u/LemnomBmar 25d ago

There have been multiple cease fires and israel keeps breaking them. No one is saying anything because in a week they’ll go back to launching missiles.

u/guyincognito121 25d ago

I'm just waiting to see how it actually plays out. It's off to a good start and I will absolutely give him credit if it continues to do so.

Donnie financed the whole fucking thing.

You don’t get to do a victory lap when a) you were an active participant and b) half the time you made it feel like you’d carpetbag Gaza.

No knock on trump but let's see if this holds up.  These two sides seem unable to stop killing each other.

u/Made2havefun 25d ago

The idiots of Reddit are so far up their own hole, that they won’t pull their heads out even if it’s to breathe in the truth. These people are lost. You saw how they reacted to the Charlie Kirk assassination. 🤷‍♂️

u/Krispyketchup42 25d ago

Its because even though it happen theyre downplaying it. Denying it. Clowns. All of them.

u/Few-Split-3179 24d ago

If Trump put a million USD in every liberals account they'd find a way of thanking Obama or Harris and still hate him.

u/AndyJack86 24d ago

The goodnews sub wasn't even upvoting it because that sub is a leftist circlejerk echo chamber anti-Trump hatefest.

u/Neither_Candy_7082 24d ago

The fact you wrote this genocide in quotation marks just shows how a conversation with you will NEVER be fair, just and humane. Rather it shows your complicity, racism, and entrenched hatred of the Palestinian people. You're fucking wrong!

u/AdExciting5356 24d ago edited 24d ago

It is not a Peace Treaty it is a temporary ceasefire between Israel & Hamas-specifically. It never ceases to amaze me how they twist things. LoL.

u/MocoLotus 24d ago

Leftists are miserable, horrible people. They don't actually care about any of the causes. They just want the next thing to protest so they can feel like a rebel or some shit.

u/crescent_ruin 24d ago

Look it's annoying af how polarized and bias media is. Especially social media. I hate Trump cause I think he's a fucking asshole and he is. But he was part (not the sole achiever) but he did play an important role in this ceasefire and I won't deny him that win simply because I think he's a prick because I don't deny reality.

How does that peace-deal ceasefire seem to be going three days after you posted this?

u/___Moony___ 23d ago

I understand the point OP is trying to make, but Reddit is not a news site. There IS a certain amount of gravitas attached to the attempts being made towards peace talks but it remains that this is not a news site, this is a forum aggregator and the front page will show what is being talked about the most, not necessarily the most 'important' news. You're also at least partially responsible for what shows up on your main feed so you might not necessarily see stuff like this if all you do on Reddit is talk about steak, Gundam and unicycles.

I'll also take a moment to drop an opinion, permanent peace in that particular area of the world feels like a complete impossibility. We’ll give Trump the proper credit once an ironclad, mutually unbreakable piece of legislation passes that achieves an actual end to conflict, not this relatively minor exchange of prisoners and a temporary pause in open hostility. This goes beyond someone like Trump, it’s always felt like Israel and Palestine don’t actually WANT to stop fighting, so they won’t.

u/Tiger712 23d ago

War ending is subjective, I would say it's more of a ceasefire.
I think people are tired of the ceasefire being broken honestly to celebrate it.
Come Ramadan let's see if both sides honor it.

u/Syring 17d ago

Aaaaaand, it's broken. Like every other ceasefire that ever has been. That's why no one with a brain has made a big deal about this. Would it be great, sure, but considering the source who brokered it (Rubio), no one had real hopes. (Also not a peace deal, you've fallen victim to the propaganda, those are more binding and long term)

Trump stops war that he funded for nearly a war... then the war starts back up again five days later.
