Deception
(50%)
The article is deceptive in several ways. Firstly, the author claims that a cease-fire resolution would jeopardize efforts to broker a hostage-release deal. However, this claim is not supported by any evidence presented in the article and appears to be an attempt at justification for the US vetoing of the resolution. Secondly, the author uses emotional language such as 'hard diplomacy takes more time than any of us might like' which attempts to manipulate readers into agreeing with their perspective without providing factual evidence or reasoning. Thirdly, the article presents a one-sided view on the situation in Gaza and does not consider alternative perspectives or provide context for why there is ongoing conflict between Israel and Hamas.

The article is deceptive in several ways. Firstly, the author claims that voting against the draft resolution implies an endorsement of brutal violence and collective punishment inflicted upon Palestinians. However, this statement is misleading as it does not provide any context or evidence to support this claim. Secondly, the author quotes Algerian ambassador Amar Bendjama stating that a vote in favor of the draft resolution is support for the Palestinians' right to life and against their suffering. This quote implies that voting against the draft resolution means supporting Israel's actions, which is not necessarily true. Thirdly, the author quotes U.S ambassador Linda Thomas-Greenfield stating that proceeding with a vote today was wishful and irresponsible without providing any evidence or context to support this claim.

Deception

The article is deceptive in several ways. Firstly, the title of the article implies that there was a ceasefire proposed by Israel and Hamas but this is not true as it only mentions an Algerian resolution calling for an immediate ceasefire which has been vetoed by the US. Secondly, while stating that President Biden's recent use of 'ceasefire' signals a shift in his administration's approach to Gaza, the article does not provide any evidence or context as to why this is significant and how it differs from previous positions held by the US. Thirdly, the article quotes Linda Thomas-Greenfield stating that proceeding with a vote on Algeria's proposed resolution would negatively impact ongoing negotiations in the region but fails to mention what these negotiations are about or who they involve. Lastly, while reporting on Israel's recent military action against Rafah and Biden's criticism of it, the article does not provide any context as to why this is relevant to a ceasefire resolution.
