Ceasefire Theater: How Western Media Buries the Resistance's Real Demands

As Mahmoud Qamati makes clear, the resistance will accept nothing less than full restoration—not a ceasefire dressed up as victory. Yet Western coverage insists on framing this as radicalism rather than legitimate self-determination.
