Imagine that in this smoke-filled battlefield in the Middle East, a seemingly small diplomatic trick could turn the tide of events. Yes, you heard it right, the hard-core Iranians are stretching out an olive branch in this protracted conflict in an attempt to win a glimmer of hope for peace.
However, just when the world thought that it could finally breathe, all expectations were ruthlessly shattered. Israelis laugh at Iran's friendship and prefer to continue to gamble their country's prestige and people's lives on the battlefield filled with gunfire.
We can't help but ask, what is peace in their eyes, and where will this decades-old Middle East conflict go? Let us peel through the fog and look directly at this farcical tragicomedy. According to the report, Iran has informed the United States that it will not retaliate against Israel's bombing of its embassy in Syria if Israel and Hamas reach a ceasefire in Gaza.
This is undoubtedly an olive branch of reconciliation on the part of Iran strategically towards Israel. If implemented, this move will be a shot in the arm to ease tensions in the Middle East. First, it creates the conditions for a Palestinian-Israeli ceasefire, at least giving Israel a chance to end the fighting.
Second, it adds a glimmer of life to prevent local wars from spreading throughout the Middle East. Moreover, it provides a decent reason for Iran to avoid getting involved in a larger conflict, thereby reducing the pressure on its domestic public opinion. However, it is clear that the Israeli side has turned a blind eye to Iran's diplomatic offensive.
With the voice of opposition to the ceasefire within the government gaining the upper hand, the military has even more bluntly stated that it will continue to strike on many fronts such as Gaza and Lebanon. Some radical officials have even publicly demonstrated that Netanyahu's government cannot abandon its strategic goal of attacking Hamas. In the face of such a tough public opinion at home, it seems difficult to embolden Israel's leaders to accept the Iranian proposal.
Abdullah, an expert on the Middle East, said: "The two sides have been at odds for a long time, and the lack of mutual trust is the root cause. The Iranians are accustomed to setting up tricks, but the Israelis hate it and would rather continue to shed blood than trust the promises of their opponents. It can be seen that the deep-seated mutual suspicion is the biggest stumbling block that distorts this posture of peace.
So have you ever had a similar experience in your life, whether to continue confrontation or try to reconcile in the face of hostility? I'm afraid it's a dilemma for most people. Because reconciliation requires the good faith of both parties, unilateral deception only deepens the rift.
But if the confrontation continues, the endless fighting will bring untold suffering to the people. Therefore, the wisdom of turning hostility into friendship is the key to opening the door to peace. To be honest, Iran's peaceful gesture can be regarded as a shocking "big move".
These scheming Iranians are willing to slow down their actions against Israel first, as long as the Israeli side honestly establishes a ceasefire with the Palestinians. It stands to reason that this is also a great pain in the face of Iranians, who have always regarded Palestinians as brothers. However, the Israelis apparently did not accept this favor at all.
After all, everyone knows that the beam between these two groups of people is a good old knot, no matter what sincerity you are, we just don't want to receive that love. On the face of it, such an attitude on the part of Israel is undoubtedly suffocating. But if you think more empathetically, you may be able to have more empathy.
For Israelis, who have endured decades of war, Iran has always been a great enemy from behind, so how can it easily believe its promises?
Moreover, Iran does have some trickery at this moment: by doing so, it may be trying to win sympathy among the Arab states and force Israel to retreat. That is why Israel's determination to take a hard line is also caused by this vigilance.
Looking at the situation in the Middle East, the road to peace is still full of thorns. But we also hope that the two sides will be able to re-promote dialogue in the future and show wisdom above the bucket. After all, only by walking hand in hand can we truly get out of this shadow of war and find the road to peace.
