Hamas says latest ceasefire proposal deviates from previous agreements (www.middleeasteye.net)

Hamas will not engage with the latest US ceasefire proposal due to its deviation from President Joe Biden’s deal outline announced in May, sources close to the Palestinian movement told Middle East Eye.

It described the latest proposal as a "reversal" on previous US-backed plans and “an American submission to the terrorist Netanyahu’s new conditions and his criminal plans towards the Gaza Strip”.

The previous ceasefire plan was backed by Biden as “Israel’s proposal” and later adopted by the UN Security Council in June.

US Secretary of State Antony Blinken on Monday said Netanyahu supports the latest American “bridging proposal” after meeting the prime minister in Israel. Blinken’s comments on Monday “baffled” some Israeli officials who believe Netanyahu’s new position is making a deal much harder to reach.

Iran is also still developing nukes.

That's the biggest part IMO, Iran wants to avoid an Iraq situation. Very different circumstances, but Iraq shows what happens if you are targeted by Empire but don't have WMDs.

Tech has changed and the US is in a different position globally, as a declining Imperial Power.
