Israel, the United States and Hamas are close to an agreement to free dozens of women and children held hostage in Gaza, in exchange for the first sustained pause in conflict in Gaza, according to people familiar with its provisions.

    Egypt is a US client state - is this really the first time you’ve heard of this stuff?

      Goodness me, I suppose the EU is made of US client states as well, and Japan, and South Korea, and Latin America, and MENA, and most of Africa, and Southeast Asia. Really, anytime anyone does anything you don’t like, unless they’re Russia, Iran, India, or China, you can just decry them as America’s 51st state. Very convenient. I’m sure India will be added to the “American Capitalist Lapdogs” before long, though. Not enough saber-rattling for your kind.
