Gaza ceasefire deal 'closer than we've ever been', says Joe Biden

One of the reasons i was late for y'all was because i was dealing with the.. cease fire negotiations in the middle east, and-uh we are closer than we've ever been. I don't want to jinx anything, but-uhh.. as my grandfather- save the grace of god and good will of the neighbours a lot of luck (?). We may have something.

Is this just him lying about it, or could this actually lead somewhere? I seriously doubt Israel, the state which assassinated the lead negotiator, would be on board with this. But who knows
