Hypocrisy Rating: MEDIUM

Summary: Netanyahu's far-right partners rejected a potential cease-fire compromise, saying they would bring down the government if it did not completely eliminate Hamas. However, Netanyahu expressed openness to a 42-day pause in the fighting and US President Biden stated that Israeli military attacks had already eliminated Hamas as a major threat. This shows a possible contradiction between the far-right partners and Netanyahu's stance on the cease-fire.

Hypocritical statements:

1. "...two far-right partners threatened to bring down his government should Israel agree to a cease-fire deal that would end the war in Gaza without eliminating Hamas." - The far-right partners are threatening to bring down the government if a cease-fire is agreed upon, yet they are also rejecting any deal that does not completely eliminate Hamas. This shows a double standard and possible hypocrisy in their demands.

2. "It's time to end this war... If Hamas abided by the agreement's terms, the president said, it would ultimately lead to the 'cessation of hostilities permanently.'" - President Biden is calling for an end to the war and stating that if Hamas followed the cease-fire agreement, hostilities would stop permanently. However, the far-right partners are refusing to accept any deal that does not completely eliminate Hamas, showing a possible contradiction in their stance.
