In a blistering rebuke of what he called a “blatant lie,” Richard Tice, Deputy Leader of the U.K.’s Reform Party, has issued firsthand testimony challenging claims that Gaza is currently facing famine. Having just returned from the Israeli-Gaza border, Tice accused both the United Nations and the British government of ignoring facts on the ground while fueling what he described as antisemitic sentiment disguised as humanitarian concern.
</div>
<div>
In a piece titled, “<a href="https://www.conservativewoman.co.uk/on-the-gaza-front-line-i-find-the-famine-is-a-blatant-lie/">On the Gaza front line, I find the famine is a blatant lie</a>,” Tice, who has stepped up as one of the few British political voices willing to challenge the dominant Gaza famine narrative, spoke of his visit to the Kerem Shalom crossing — a dangerous checkpoint through which humanitarian aid flows into Gaza. What he saw there contradicts the headlines: “I found myself at an Israeli border crossing into Gaza. I stood among hundreds of pallets of fresh avocados, onions and bananas, along with more flour, sugar and tins than I had ever seen.”
</div>
<div>
This wasn’t some isolated warehouse. It was the frontline of a war zone, and yet, he reported, aid is moving.
<a class="c-link c-link--focus-visible" href="https://get.dailywire.com/subscribe/plus/?utm_campaign=fall40&amp;utm_content=fallsale&amp;utm_medium=website&amp;utm_source=editorial" target="_blank" rel="noopener noreferrer" data-stringify-link="https://get.dailywire.com/subscribe/plus/?utm_campaign=fall40&amp;utm_content=fallsale&amp;utm_medium=website&amp;utm_source=editorial" data-sk="tooltip_parent">Get 40% off new DailyWire+ annual memberships with code FALL40 at checkout!</a>
</div>
<div>
More damningly, Tice questioned why organizations like the United Nations Relief and Works Agency (UNRWA) have been so slow in distributing this aid, despite having the largest footprint in Gaza. According to Tice, these organizations are either failing outright or deliberately stonewalling. Some even refuse to cooperate with Israeli vetting procedures — refusals that, as Tice points out, delay the aid and empower Hamas to seize supplies for the black market, driving up prices and manufacturing artificial scarcity. In short, it’s not famine — it’s manipulation. “Why are we still funding the UN and other organisations that fail and lie?” he asked rhetorically.
</div>
<div>
Backing Tice’s claims is an <a href="https://www.dailywire.com/news/how-the-uns-famine-authority-engaged-in-data-fraud-to-undermine-u-s-humanitarian-aid?utm_source=chatgpt.com">explosive forensic</a> report by the Network Contagion Research Institute (NCRI), a nonpartisan body that analyzed the data behind the UN’s August declaration of famine. The NCRI’s conclusion? The UN&#8217;s claim that famine was “currently occurring” in Gaza City was based on statistically manipulated models, cherry-picked data, and outright suppression of contradictory evidence. For example, the IPC — the UN’s famine classification arm — based its famine alarm on six data points modeled exponentially, even when a linear model fit just as well. Worse, an updated dataset of more than 15,000 children showing malnutrition at 13.5% — below the 15% famine threshold — was available before publication but ignored. In short, famine hadn’t been reached, and the UN knew it.
</div>
<div>
Even worse, the UN famine authority buried contradictory hunger surveys, selectively labeled regions to exaggerate suffering, and excluded Rafah — one of the most stable areas receiving U.S.-backed aid from the Gaza Humanitarian Foundation — claiming it had been “depopulated,” despite including it in previous reports. The result? A distorted picture aimed at discrediting American-led humanitarian efforts in favor of the UN’s aging, politically compromised machinery.
</div>
<div>
Tice called it what it is: fraud. He warned that the real victims here are not just the misled Western public or taxpayers, but the Israeli civilians who continue to suffer from terrorist attacks and the honest Palestinians being manipulated by a terror-controlled regime and corrupt aid networks. He concluded that if the UN and its affiliates are willing to bury their own data to preserve a narrative, they must be held accountable.

President Donald Trump pressured Hamas to “move quickly” to release the hostages in a Saturday morning post on Truth Social — or “all bets will be off.”
Trump also thanked Israel for “temporarily” ceasing “the bombing.”

The president, during a joint press conference on Monday with Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu, announced a 20-point plan to end the war in Gaza, establish lasting peace, and rebuild the area.
The <a href="https://www.dailywire.com/news/trump-to-hamas-agree-to-peace-plan-by-deadline-or-all-hell-will-break-out">proposal</a> drawn up by the Trump administration and agreed to by Israel would require Hamas to disarm and turn over the remaining hostages. In return, Hamas terrorists who agree to disarm would be given amnesty to live in Gaza or the option to be given safe passage elsewhere. Israel would also be forced to turn over “250 life sentence prisoners plus 1,700 Gazans who were detained after October 7th 2023, including all women and children detained in that context,” according to the document.
Multiple Middle Eastern nations have also expressed support for the plan, including Qatar and Egypt.

On Friday, Trump issued an ultimatum to Hamas, noting that they had until 6 p.m. ET on Sunday to accept the deal, or “all hell” would break loose. Shortly after on Friday, Hamas signaled that they are prepared to release the remaining hostages — though they don’t seem to be willing to disarm, which is a critical part of the peace plan.
“In this context, the movement affirms its readiness to immediately enter into negotiations through the mediators to discuss these details,” Hamas said.
Without Hamas agreeing to the other terms of the deal, however, Israel might not be willing to agree to the release of hundreds of prisoners.

President Donald Trump said on Friday that Hamas is &#8220;ready for a lasting PEACE&#8221; after the terror group <a href="https://www.dailywire.com/news/hamas-says-it-will-release-all-hostages-but-does-not-agree-to-other-details-of-trumps-peace-plan?topStoryPosition=undefined&amp;author=Zach+Jewell&amp;category=News&amp;elementPosition=4&amp;row=1&amp;rowHeadline=Top+Stories&amp;rowType=Top+Stories&amp;title=Hamas+Says+It+Will+Release+All+Hostages%2C+But+Does+Not+Agree+To+Other+Details+Of+Trump%E2%80%99s+Peace+Plan">claimed</a> it would release all remaining hostages as it continues to negotiate other terms of Trump&#8217;s peace proposal.
The president also called on Israel to &#8220;stop the bombing of Gaza&#8221; to allow for the hostages to be handed over safely.
&#8220;Based on the Statement just issued by Hamas, I believe they are ready for a lasting PEACE. Israel must immediately stop the bombing of Gaza, so that we can get the Hostages out safely and quickly!&#8221; Trump <a href="https://truthsocial.com/@realDonaldTrump/posts/115312298602997974">said</a> in a post on Truth Social. &#8220;Right now, it’s far too dangerous to do that.

Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu responded to Hamas&#8217; statement, saying that Israel is &#8220;preparing for the immediate implementation of the first stage of President Trump’s plan for the prompt release of all the hostages.&#8221;
&#8220;We will continue to work in full cooperation with the President and his team to bring the war to an end in accordance with the principles set out by Israel, which are aligned with President Trump’s vision,” Netanyahu added.
On Friday afternoon, Hamas released a statement responding to Trump’s plan, agreeing to release all of the remaining hostages and hand over administration of Gaza to an independent Palestinian body. In the statement, Hamas did not agree to disarm, a major point in the plan laid out by President Trump and agreed to by Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu earlier this week.
Hamas said it would release the remaining hostages “according to the exchange formula contained in President Trump’s proposal, and as the field conditions for the exchange are met.”

“In this context, the movement affirms its readiness to immediately enter into negotiations through the mediators to discuss these details,” Hamas added in its statement.
The terror group said it appreciated President Trump&#8217;s efforts &#8220;calling for an end to the war on the Gaza Strip, the exchange of prisoners, the immediate entry of aid, the rejection of occupation of the Strip, and the rejection of the displacement of our Palestinian people from it.&#8221; Middle Eastern countries, including Egypt and Qatar, have also been involved in the peace talks and welcomed Trump&#8217;s push to end the war.
According to the plan, Israel would also be forced to turn over “250 life sentence prisoners plus 1,700 Gazans who were detained after October 7th 2023, including all women and children detained in that context.” Without Hamas agreeing to the other terms of the deal, however, Israel might not be willing to agree to the release of hundreds of prisoners.

However, Hamas did not agree to disarm, a major point in the plan laid out by President Trump earlier this week.

The statement from Hamas could be a ploy to buy time after Trump&#8217;s ultimatum, as it seeks more favorable terms. Muslim nations in the Middle East, including Qatar and Egypt, issued a joint statement welcoming Trump’s “sincere efforts to end the war in Gaza&#8221; earlier this week, but Hamas has remained hesitant to agree to the deal.
Trump said on Friday morning that the United States knows where the remaining Hamas fighters are hiding, adding that if the terror group does not agree to the peace plan, &#8220;You will be hunted down, and killed.”

Hamas Says It Will Release All Hostages, But Does Not Agree To Other Details Of Trump’s Peace Plan

Hamas has until 6:00 p.m. ET on Sunday to agree to President Donald Trump’s 20-point peace plan before “all HELL, like no one has ever seen before, will break out against” the terror group, the president warned on Friday morning.
Trump’s <a href="https://www.dailywire.com/news/whats-in-trumps-20-point-plan-for-eternal-peace-in-the-middle-east">plan</a>, which was announced on Monday alongside Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu at the White House, establishes a path to ending the war in Gaza, which has raged on for nearly two years after Hamas attacked Israel on October 7, 2023, killing around 1,200 people.
“The details of the document are known to the WORLD, and it is a great one for ALL! We will have PEACE in the Middle East one way or the other. The violence and bloodshed will stop. RELEASES THE HOSTAGES, ALL OF THEM, INCLUDING THE BODIES OF THOSE THAT ARE DEAD, NOW!” Trump <a href="https://truthsocial.com/@realDonaldTrump/posts/115310630808491399">wrote</a>. “An Agreement must be reached with Hamas by Sunday Evening at SIX (6) P.M., Washington, D.C. time.

THERE WILL BE PEACE IN THE MIDDLE EAST ONE WAY OR THE OTHER.”

The proposal drawn up by the Trump administration and agreed to by Israel would require Hamas to disarm and turn over the remaining hostages. In return, Hamas terrorists who agree to disarm would be given amnesty to live in Gaza or the option to be given safe passage elsewhere. Israel would also be forced to turn over “250 life sentence prisoners plus 1,700 Gazans who were detained after October 7th 2023, including all women and children detained in that context,” according to the document.
Hamas has been reluctant to sign the deal, despite Muslim nations in the Middle East, including Qatar and Egypt, issuing a <a href="https://mofa.gov.qa/en/latest-articles/statements/joint-statement-by-the-foreign-ministers-of-qatar--jordan--uae--indonesia--pakistan--t%C3%BCrkiye--saudi-arabia--and-egypt-welcome-us-president-s-sincere-efforts-to-end-the-war-in-gaza">joint statement</a> welcoming Trump’s “sincere efforts to end the war in Gaza.” After unveiling the proposal, Trump said he would give Hamas “three or four days” to respond. On the fourth day following the announcement, the president’s patience is wearing thin.
“Hamas has been a ruthless and violent threat, for many years, in the Middle East! They have killed (and made lives unbearably miserable), culminating with the October 7th MASSACRE, in Israel, babies, woman, children, old people, and many young men and women, boys and girls, getting ready to celebrate their future lives together,” Trump said. “As retribution for the October 7th attack on civilization, more than 25,000 Hamas &#8216;soldiers&#8217; have already been killed. Most of the rest are surrounded and MILITARILY TRAPPED, just waiting for me to give the word, &#8216;GO,&#8217; for their lives to be quickly extinguished. As for the rest, we know where and who you are, and you will be hunted down, and killed.”
The president called on “all innocent Palestinians” to flee to “safer parts of Gaza” to avoid “potentially great future death.”
“Everyone will be well cared for by those that are waiting to help. Fortunately for Hamas, however, they will be given one last chance!” Trump added.

Trump To Hamas: Agree To Peace Plan By Deadline Or ‘All HELL Will Break Out’

Trump To Hamas: Agree To Peace Plan By Deadline Or 'All HELL Will Break Out'

Executive

Politics

The activist flotilla headlined by 22-year-old Greta Thunberg — which has been trying to run supplies into Gaza — is closely linked to Hamas, documents discovered in Gaza show.
The documents connect two flotilla organizers to the terror group that has been engaged in a war with Israel for nearly two years. In addition, dozens of the boats taking part in the flotilla are owned by a Hamas “front company,” according to the Israeli foreign ministry.
“Hamas documents that were discovered in the Gaza Strip, and are being revealed for the first time, show a direct link between the flotilla leaders and the Hamas terrorist organization,” the ministry said in a statement alongside two of the documents that link the terror group to the Popular Conference for Palestinians Abroad (PCPA).
<blockquote class="twitter-tweet">
EXPOSED: Official Hamas documents found in the Gaza Strip &#8211; now revealed for the first time &#8211; prove Hamas’ direct involvement in the funding and execution of the “Sumud” flotilla to Gaza
Hamas documents that were discovered in the Gaza Strip, and are being revealed for the first… <a href="https://t.co/arcbcqh2Kx">pic.twitter.com/arcbcqh2Kx</a>

The PCPA was founded in 2018. Three years later in 2021, Israel declared the group a terrorist organization because of its close ties to Hamas. Two of the PCPA’s senior members are also chief organizers of flotillas to the Gaza Strip like the Sumud flotilla led by Thunberg, who was <a href="https://x.com/IsraelMFA/status/1973479557622899030">detained</a> by the Israeli military on Wednesday night as the flotilla attempted to reach Gaza.
The PCPA “functions as Hamas’ representative body abroad, operating de facto as Hamas’ embassies,” the foreign ministry said. “The organization operates under the pretense of civilian cover and is responsible, on behalf of Hamas, for mobilizing actions against Israel, including violent demonstrations, marches against Israel, and demonstration and provocation flotillas.”
The documents taken from Gaza include a 2021 letter by Ismail Haniyeh, who headed the Hamas Political Bureau until he was killed by the Israeli military in 2024. In the letter, Haniyeh urged “national unity and partnership” in order to “establish an independent state whose capital is the Holy Jerusalem.”
Another document lists top operatives in the PCPA who are also closely affiliated with Hamas, if not full members of Hamas, as well. Zaher Birawi “serves as Head of the PCPA’s Hamas sector in the UK” and organizes flotillas to Gaza. Saif Abu Kashk is a PCPA operative in Spain who is also the CEO of Cyber Neptune, a front for Hamas. Cyber Neptune owns dozens of the estimated 50 boats in Thunberg’s flotilla.
“Thus, these ships are secretly owned by Hamas,” the Israeli foreign ministry said.
The flotilla organizers have claimed that they are attempting to break past Israel’s military line into Gaza to deliver aid to Gazans. Israel says that flotilla organizers are more interested in provoking an international incident than in caring for Gazan civilians, though, because Italy and Israel offered to bring the aid directly to Gaza but the flotilla organizers declined the offer.
“They said no. Do you know why? Because they’re not interested in aid — they’re interested in provocation,” Israeli spokesman Oren Marmorstein <a href="https://europeanconservative.com/articles/news/israel-links-greta-thunbergs-gaza-flotilla-to-hamas/">said</a>. “We don’t want anyone to be in danger. That’s why we said: Please accept the Italian government’s proposal … Let’s bring the aid to Gaza peacefully.”

Ships In Greta Thunberg’s Flotilla ‘Secretly’ Owned By Hamas, Israel Says

<div>
In a chilling real-life story indicative of the evil that the Israeli population faces from Palestinians, former Fox News reporter Leland Vittert, now with NewsNation, recounted a bloodcurdling tale of a Palestinian woman whose life was saved twice by Israel but still wanted to murder Israelis.
</div>
<div>
Vittert told his story to Bari Weiss of The Free Press. Because of the dramatic nature of the story, the complete transcript is reprinted below:

Vittert:
</div>
<div>
<blockquote>
In 2012, I’m a foreign correspondent for Fox. Normally, when you’re based in Jerusalem you’re covering protests in the West Bank or riots in the West Bank on and on and on. Because of the Arab Spring I really hadn’t spent that much time in Israel, and the Palestinian-Israeli conflict was not a thing in those years, there had been a couple of Gaza skirmishes.
</blockquote>
</div>
<div>
<blockquote>
But there was the Gilad Shalit deal, where there was an Israeli soldier who had been held hostage and traded from Gaza to Israel for 1,000 Palestinian prisoners —

</div>
<div>
<div>
“Including Sinwar,” Weiss interjected, referencing Yahya Sinwar, who headed the horrific October 7, 2023, massacre of more than 1200 Israelis.

</div>
<div>
Vittert continued:
</div>
<div>
<blockquote>
Including Sinwar and including a woman named Wafa. And Wafa had been a woman in Gaza. She had pulled a pot of boiling water over herself when she was like five or six years old. The Israelis treat most of the people out of Gaza who have really horrific burns, catastrophic medical injuries.
</blockquote>
</div>
<blockquote>
<div>
She goes back to Gaza after being treated for four or five years in Israel but has a pass to get in and out of Israel, which very few people in Gaza did at the time.
</div>
<div>
So she gets recruited to be a suicide bomber. This is in the Second Intifada, so in the mid-2000s. And there’s the video of her, coming to the checkpoint to get into Israel wearing her suicide vest, and she’d been given three options by the Al-Aqsa Martyr’s Brigade: a bus, a café, or the hospital that had treated her and saved her life. She chose the hospital that had treated her and saved her life.
</div>
<div>
She gets to the checkpoint; they discover that she has a bomb, or they think she does; she tries to detonate it; it doesn’t go off. She gets thrown in jail.
</div>
<div>
Again; the Israelis treat her. They help her with her burns. The educate her. They give her a college degree.
</div>
<div>
And now, in the Gilad Shalit deal, she goes back to Gaza.
</div>
</blockquote>
<div>
<blockquote>
So I go to Gaza to interview her, thinking this is going to be a redemption story. It was before Christmas, right? That she’s gonna say —
</blockquote>
</div>
<div>
“Perfect Christmas story,” Weiss interjected.
</div>
<div>
Vittert:
</div>
<div>
<blockquote>
— that “I am going to be the one to try and forge peace, and I believe in peace; I’ve seen that the Israelis are not evil that I don’t want to kill them anymore.”
</blockquote>
</div>
<blockquote>
<div>
Fine. So I get into Gaza, and I bring with me the iPad that has the video of her trying to blow herself up. So we’re sitting across from each other like this (gesturing to Weiss sitting facing him). She’s wearing a hijab in a very junky Gazan apartment — it is an awful place  in every sense of the word – and I show her the video. And I said, “What do you think, watching this?” And she says, “Oh! Oh! Oh!” has all this reaction, and she goes, “I’m thinking I almost tasted paradise.”  
</div>
<div>
Okay. “Would you do it again?” “Absolutely in a minute. This is my calling in life.”
</div>
<div>
I said, “Wait a second. These people treated you and all of your burns. They saved your life. You tried to blow them up. They still treated you. They educated you. And now you have a chance at life back here in Gaza and you’d want to blow them up?” And she goes, “Absolutely, They are the infidels. They are evil, they are the enemy.” I can’t remember what the exact translation was.
</div>
</blockquote>
<div>
<blockquote>
And that’s when my mind was made up of the sort of moral clarity of the Israeli-Palestinian debate. Are the Israelis perfect? No. But that’s what they’re up against.

PALESTINIAN-ISRAEL-CONFLICT

Saved Twice By Israel, Gaza Woman Still Dreams Of Mass Murder: ‘I Almost Tasted Paradise’

Palestinians

The BBC has reported that Hamas is expected to reject President Donald Trump’s 20-point peace proposal designed to end the war in Gaza and secure the release of 48 Israeli hostages. According to a senior Hamas official quoted by the BBC, the plan “serves Israel’s interests” while blatantly “ignoring those of the Palestinian people,” the Jerusalem Post <a href="https://www.jpost.com/middle-east/article-869173">reported</a>.
The terror group also reportedly made clear its opposition to two key conditions in Trump’s plan: disarmament and the deployment of an international stabilization force inside Gaza. Hamas will reportedly not surrender its weapons, nor will it tolerate what it sees as foreign occupation under the guise of peacekeeping.
This reported rejection by Hamas contradicts a <a href="https://www.cbsnews.com/news/trump-gaza-plan-israel-hamas-ceasefire-proposal-reaction-expected/">CBS News report</a> from the day before, which suggested the group and other Palestinian factions were warming to the proposal and considering it &#8220;responsibly.&#8221; While Hamas has yet to issue a formal reply, the conflicting signals expose a pattern: public posturing, private evasion.
Meanwhile, Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu met with Trump at the White House on Monday and agreed to the plan. “If Hamas rejects the deal, which is always possible—they’re the only ones left—then Israel would have my full backing to finish the job of destroying Hamas,” Trump declared. &#8220;But I have a feeling we’re going to have a positive answer.&#8221;

But Mahmoud Mardawi, a senior Hamas leader, crushed those hopes with a categorical denunciation of the plan, calling it a “one-sided proposal” designed to “entrench occupation” and delegitimize the Palestinian struggle. In remarks reported by <a href="https://ilkha.com/english/world/hamas-rejects-trump-peace-plan-affirms-right-of-palestinian-self-determination-482268?utm_source=chatgpt.com">Ilkha.com,</a> Mardawi claimed the plan was never even shared with Hamas or other Palestinian factions, highlighting its alleged illegitimacy.
“This plan aligns with the goals of the Zionist occupation and offers no genuine solutions for our people,” he blustered, labeling the proposal vague and devoid of guarantees for Palestinian rights. Mardawi insisted Hamas would only accept a plan that protected Palestinian sovereignty, explicitly defending armed resistance as a &#8220;legitimate&#8221; method of liberation.
But behind the rhetoric of victimhood and resistance lies a darker truth. Israel Hayom <a href="https://www.israelhayom.com/2024/09/06/hamas-secret-playbook-sinwars-psychological-warfare-exposed/">reported</a> in September 2024 that confidential documents recovered by the IDF and believed to be from the computer of Yahya Sinwar, Hamas’s top commander in Gaza, exposed the terror group’s chilling manipulation of hostages, media, and peace negotiations.
According to the report, the document—initially revealed by Germany’s Bild—was drafted in spring 2024 and provided a window into Hamas’ ruthless priorities. Nowhere in the text are Palestinian civilian casualties mentioned. Instead, it detailed strategies to “exhaust” Israel’s political and military resources while prolonging negotiations to rebuild Hamas’ crippled military power.
Far from striving for peace, the document instructed Hamas to apply psychological pressure on the families of Israeli hostages, including during ceasefires. Hamas propaganda videos that showed hostages pleading for their lives align precisely with these instructions.
According to the document, Hamas planned to exploit ceasefire periods by allowing the Red Cross limited access to hostages—not as a humanitarian gesture, but to manipulate the emotional state of families and extend temporary truces, regardless of compliance with agreements. The document also proposed bringing in Arab military forces to act as a buffer while Hamas secretly re-armed for future attacks.
Hamas’ relentless deception has involved ignoring the suffering of Gazans, using hostages as bargaining chips, and ceasefires as camouflage for regrouping.

Hamas Plans To Reject Trump’s Gaza Peace Deal, Terror Group Tells BBC

Trump peace plan

President Trump totally broke open the war in Gaza and perhaps put together a workable peace plan.
President Trump has received an inordinate amount of hatred for actually being good at foreign policy. Perhaps the best thing about President Trump&#8217;s first term was his foreign policy. He has always been heterodox in his foreign policy views, and that heterodoxy has actually served him quite well, particularly in the Middle East.
He didn&#8217;t get the credit he deserved over the Abraham Accords. He has not received the credit that he deserves for his continuing support of Israel in the face of genocidal hatred and terrorism from Hamas.
And now he has somehow drawn a fascinating path to peace in the Gaza Strip.
On Monday, Trump and Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu met for a long time before actually going out and doing a full press conference where they unveiled President Trump&#8217;s peace plan, which has been signed on to by Israel, the United States, Qatar, all of the regional players, and by the Europeans, which is an amazing achievement for the president.
Let’s be clear: Hamas has not accepted this deal yet, but the deal totally changes the game.
Why?
Because if everybody is on the same page but Hamas, that means that Hamas is totally isolated. And Hamas has relied on the kindness of strangers. Hamas has relied for this entire war on having the public relations of Qatar on its side, of having other countries in the Middle East on its side, and of having the Europeans on its side.
Just a week ago, we were talking about how the Europeans were moving steadily and not so gradually toward declaring a Palestinian state in the aftermath of the worst terror attack on Israel in its history and the worst attack on Jews since World War II. That is how badly things were going for Israel in the PR war.
That was because there is a strong drive among the “suicidally empathetic” — as the philosopher Gad Saad has said — in Europe to side with the people who wish to destroy Western civilization.
But now President Trump has now done something incredible. He has put together a deal that is workable, a deal that has now been signed off by the Israelis and from everybody else in the region. Even the Europeans have signed off on it.
Whenever you hear that a deal has been signed off on by everyone, the inclination is to say that it is a weak deal. That&#8217;s just the reality. And indeed, when you read the deal, you could find points where certainly quibbles would be necessary.

But overall, what President Trump has done here is to achieve the strategic goals of the West. He has allowed Israel to achieve its strategic goals in Gaza if Hamas were to accept this deal while allowing for a path forward.
Some points regarding the deal:
<blockquote>“Gaza will be a deradicalized terror-free zone that does not pose a threat to its neighbors.”</blockquote>
That’s more of a goal than it is an actual plan. Whether that goal is achieved depends on whether the rest of the plan is actually achieved.
<blockquote>“Within 72 hours of Israel publicly accepting this agreement, all hostages, alive and deceased, will be returned.”</blockquote>
That is to prevent Hamas from basically dragging out this process. If we get to 73 hours and Hamas has not handed over hostages, Israel will have every right and capacity to go back in.
<blockquote>“Once all hostages are released, Israel will release 250 life sentence prisoners plus 1,700 Gazans who were detained after 7 October 2023, including all women and children detained in that context. For every Israeli hostage whose remains are released, Israel will release the remains of 15 deceased Gazans.” </blockquote>
This sort of math makes me insane. It has always made me insane. It is ridiculous for any Western country to trade live terrorists for hostages.
<blockquote>“Entry of distribution and aid in the Gaza Strip will proceed without interference from the two parties through the United Nations and its agencies, and the Red Crescent, in addition to other international institutions not associated in any manner with either party. Opening the Rafah crossing in both directions will be subject to the same mechanism implemented under the 19 January 2025 agreement.”</blockquote>
This should be a sticking point. Israel is giving a lot on this. The United Nations has been and will continue to be a tool for terrorism. It always has been. It will continue to be.
<blockquote>“Gaza will be governed under the temporary transitional governance of a technocratic, apolitical Palestinian committee, responsible for delivering the day-to-day running of public services and municipalities for the people in Gaza. This committee will be made up of qualified Palestinians and international experts, with oversight and supervision by a new international transitional body, the ‘Board of Peace,’ which will be headed and chaired by President Donald J. Trump, with other members and heads of state to be announced, including Former Prime Minister Tony Blair.”</blockquote>
This is Israel&#8217;s guarantee against the possibility that Hamas immediately reconstitutes and that the aid that flows in is somehow handed over directly to a reconstituted Hamas by another name. In reality, it&#8217;ll have to be run by Tony Blair with input from the United States, because the reality is that there are not a whole hell of a lot of “Palestinian moderates.”
And this brings us to the question of the Palestinian Authority.
According to the Trump plan:
<blockquote>“This body will set the framework and handle the funding for the redevelopment of Gaza until such time as the Palestinian Authority has completed its reform program, as outlined in various proposals, including President Trump&#8217;s peace plan in 2020 and the Saudi-French proposal, and can securely and effectively take back control of Gaza. This body will call on best international standards to create modern and efficient governance that serves the people of Gaza and is conducive to attracting investment.”</blockquote>
Let&#8217;s be real about that. It&#8217;s never going to happen. The Palestinian Authority is corrupt top to bottom. Every Arab and Jew in the region knows this. This is not a secret. The reality is the Palestinian Authority is wildly unpopular in Judea and Samaria, thanks to its incredible levels of corruption, thanks to the fact its leadership bilks the population and aid agencies out of literally billions of dollars.
The PA is never going to end up governing Gaza. They can&#8217;t even govern cities in Judea and Samaria, in Nablus and Jenin. They&#8217;re not going to govern any of these areas. So this is a pipe dream. Presumably, that pipe dream is put out there for the pleasure of various Arab nations who are signing on to President Trump&#8217;s agreement here.

Trump’s plan is going to be dependent on decent governance. Unfortunately, it is just a fact that the vast majority of Palestinians support terrorism. There is zero, literally zero evidence that Palestinians overall do not support terrorism. Every single Palestinian poll statistic ever taken shows a vast bulk of Palestinian Arabs supporting terrorism against Jews and the destruction of the State of Israel.
<blockquote>“Hamas and other factions agree not to have any role in the governance of Gaza directly, indirectly or in any form. All military terror and offensive infrastructure, including tunnels and weapon production facilities, will be destroyed and not rebuilt. There will be a process of demilitarization of Gaza under the supervision of independent monitors, which will include placing weapons permanently beyond use through an agreed process of decommissioning, and supported by an internationally funded buy back and reintegration program all verified by the independent monitors.”</blockquote>
Why would Hamas accept the deal if they&#8217;re going to have no governance power in the Gaza Strip? Why would they give up the hostages?
Because if they have no hope, if it turns out that even their terror masters in Qatar aren’t behind them &#8230; But let&#8217;s be clear: Qatar plays both sides of the table. They always have. Qatar could have put pressure on Hamas to give up the hostages. On October 8, they could have.
Qatar did not do that. Instead, Qatar sponsored Hamas. Qatar apparently has joined in on the process of isolating Hamas. That is the only reason why this has happened and it is worthwhile noting the reason that Qatar did that, at least in part, is because they are quite concerned that if this war continues, Israel might say, you know what? It’s not worth it anymore. They go into Qatar and they kill Hamas members in Qatar.
And Qatar does not wish to be in the crossfire at this point. So that unsuccessful strike that Israel launched directly into Qatar to kill Hamas&#8217;s leadership may have been tactically unsuccessful, but it was strategically successful in putting pressure on Qatar to join the international consortium dedicated to ending Hamas rule over the Gaza Strip.
That would be the only reason why Hamas would give up the ghost here.
<blockquote>“The United States will work with Arab and international partners to develop a temporary International Stabilization Force (ISF) to immediately deploy in Gaza.”</blockquote>
What&#8217;s important there is that this international stabilization force will not be a nontransparent force. It will have coordination, including Israel. Israel is simply not going to give up all eyes on the ground and trust the Egyptians and Jordanians, all of whom have been acting, by the way, in tacit consultation with Hamas throughout this conflict.
<blockquote>“While Gaza redeployment development advances, and when the PA reform program is faithfully carried out, the conditions may finally be in place for a credible pathway to Palestinian self-determination and statehood, which we recognize as the aspiration of the Palestinian people.”</blockquote>
Notice what that isn&#8217;t. That is not a recognition of a Palestinian state. That is not even a recognition of a real pathway toward a Palestinian state. It is a recognition that if gigantic changes happen on the ground and the Palestinian Authority somehow moderates and somehow does all of the reform, and that if all of these hurdles are jumped, then maybe at some point there&#8217;s a pathway to a Palestinian state.
What this doesn&#8217;t do is say there must be a Palestinian state in order for there to be a settlement in Gaza.
The Trump administration is making no bones about that. And now neither is the international community.
All in all, it’s a very good start.

The White House released a plan on Monday that could establish “eternal peace in the Middle East” by ending the war in Gaza and creating a pathway for Palestinian statehood.
The plan contains 20 points, one less than an initial framework proposed by the United States and passed around by diplomats and world leaders. President Donald Trump announced the plan on Monday in a White House event alongside Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu.
The 20-point plan begins with the plan for Gaza in the days following the war and ends with the hope for future Israeli-Palestinian relations.
“Gaza will be a deradicalized terror-free zone that does not pose a threat to its neighbors. Gaza will be redeveloped for the benefit of the people of Gaza, who have suffered more than enough,” the first two points of the plan state.
“The United States will establish a dialogue between Israel and the Palestinians to agree on a political horizon for peaceful and prosperous co-existence,” the plan concludes.
In between are 17 points largely outlining the steps to begin transitioning Gaza from a warzone to a self-governing entity, starting with a ceasefire once both Hamas and Israel agree to the framework. Once both sides agree, aid will begin to flow into the strip, including rebuilding hospitals, bakeries, roads, and other key pieces of infrastructure.
The Israeli military will cease its advance through Gaza City and withdraw to a predetermined line while Hamas must return all hostages, living and dead, to Israel within 72 hours. In return, Israel “will release 250 life sentence prisoners plus 1700 Gazans who were detained after October 7th 2023, including all women and children detained in that context. For every Israeli hostage whose remains are released, Israel will release the remains of 15 deceased Gazans,” the proposal says.
The hostage exchange, while massively biased in favor of Hamas and Gaza, is not out of step with past prisoner swaps Israel has struck with Palestinians.

Members of Hamas who agree to disarm and commit to “peaceful co-existence” will be given amnesty and may live in Gaza, or they will be given safe passage elsewhere.
Under the ceasefire agreement, Gaza will be administered by “qualified Palestinians and international experts” under oversight from the “Board of Peace,” an international body chaired by the United States president.
“No one will be forced to leave Gaza, and those who wish to leave will be free to do so and free to return. We will encourage people to stay and offer them the opportunity to build a better Gaza,” point 12 states.
No terror group may be involved in administering Gaza. All of Hamas’ terror infrastructure, including its vast web of tunnels and weapons facilities, will be destroyed alongside the military sites of all other terror groups operating within the Gaza Strip. Israel will agree to neither occupy nor annex Gaza.
“New Gaza poses no threat to its neighbors or its people,” the framework says. Toward that end, an “interfaith dialogue process will be established based on the values of tolerance and peaceful co-existence to try and change mindsets and narratives of Palestinians and Israelis by emphasizing the benefits that can be derived from peace.”

Donald Trump, Benjamin Netanyahu

What’s In Trump’s 20-Point Plan For ‘Eternal Peace In The Middle East’

Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu has agreed to a U.S.-backed plan to end the war in Gaza and establish “a credible pathway” to a Palestinian state.
The White House rolled out the <a href="https://www.dailywire.com/news/whats-in-trumps-20-point-plan-for-eternal-peace-in-the-middle-east">plan</a> shortly before President Donald Trump appeared with Netanyahu for a joint press conference at the White House. Trump <a href="https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=oxcsZrcYuM8">announced</a> that Israel had agreed to the 20-point framework, which the president said would deliver &#8220;peace in the Middle East,&#8221; during his opening remarks.
“Today is a historic day for peace, and Prime Minister Netanyahu and I have just concluded an important meeting on many vital issues, including Iran, trade, expansion of the Abraham Accords, and, most importantly, we discussed how to end the war in Gaza,” Trump said. “I also want to thank Prime Minister Netanyahu for agreeing to the plan and for trusting that if we work together, we can bring an end to the death and destruction that we’ve seen for so many years.”
Trump said a number of Arab nations have also agreed to the outline, including Saudi Arabia, Qatar, the United Arab Emirates, Jordan, Turkey, Egypt, and others.

“Under the plan, Arab and Muslim countries have committed … to demilitarize Gaza – and that’s quickly – decommission the military capabilities of Hamas and all other terror organizations – do that immediately – and we’re relying on the countries that I named and others to deal with Hamas. And I’m hearing that Hamas wants this done, too,” the president continued.
Hamas is the only party yet to accept the deal, according to the president. If Hamas rejects the proposal, Israel would receive the “full backing” of the United States to continue the war in Gaza.
“If Hamas rejects the deal, which is always possible – they’re the only one left, everyone else has accepted it – but I have a feeling we’re going to have a positive answer. But if not, you know, Bibi, you’d have our full backing to do what you have to do,” said Trump.
Netanyahu made objections to a Palestinian state, Trump said, citing the October 7 terror attack in which an estimated 3,000 Hamas fighters and thousands of Gazans flooded across the border into Israel and murdered, raped, and kidnapped hundreds of Israeli civilians and soldiers. In remarks after Trump, Netanyahu praised the framework.
“I believe that today, we are taking a critical step toward both ending the war in Gaza, and setting the stage for dramatically advancing peace in the Middle East,” said Netanyahu.
If implemented correctly, the U.S.-backed proposal will accomplish all of Israel’s war aims, including the return of all hostages – those dead and those still alive – to Israel, complete demilitarization of the Gaza Strip, and the destruction of Hamas as an organization.
“If Hamas rejects your plan, Mr. President, or if they supposedly accept it, and then, basically, do everything to counter it, then Israel will finish the job by itself. This can be done the easy way, or it can be done the hard way. But it will be done,” the prime minister said.

Israel Agrees To U.S. Plan For ‘Eternal Peace In The Middle East’ At White House

Ahead of a Monday meeting with Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu, President Donald Trump said he thinks there is a “really good chance for peace in the Middle East.” 
Trump is set to meet with Netanyahu at 11:00 a.m. ET at the White House before holding a joint press conference later in the afternoon. In the days before the meeting, Trump expressed optimism about negotiating a deal to end the war in Gaza and secure the release of hostages held by Hamas.
&#8220;We’re doing very well. It looks like there is a really good chance for peace in the Middle East,&#8221; Trump <a href="https://www.nbcnews.com/world/middle-east/trump-talks-netanyahu-gaza-peace-deal-israel-hamas-war-hostages-rcna234370">told</a> NBC on Sunday. &#8220;Everybody is on board. Everybody.”
Those comments echoed an earlier post he wrote on Truth Social Sunday morning. 
“We have a real chance for GREATNESS IN THE MIDDLE EAST. ALL ARE ON BOARD FOR SOMETHING SPECIAL, FIRST TIME EVER. WE WILL GET IT DONE!!” he <a href="https://truthsocial.com/@realDonaldTrump/posts/115282009590636281">wrote</a>.

Speaking on Fox News Sunday, Vice President JD Vance <a href="https://x.com/RapidResponse47/status/1972294333861970197">told</a> host Martha MacCallum there was a series of very complicated ongoing discussions between the Trump administration, Israel, and Arab leaders. He said he was &#8220;cautiously hopeful&#8221; that a deal could be reached. 
“I think the president’s optimism is warranted here. I feel more optimistic about where we are right now than where we have been at any point in the last few months,” he <a href="https://x.com/RapidResponse47/status/1972294333861970197">said</a>. “Our principle here is very simple: we want all the hostages to come home, we want Hamas to no longer be a terror threat to the state of Israel, and we also want to bring the humanitarian aid in Gaza for the many innocent people caught up in the conflict. I think we are close to accomplishing all three objectives.” 
Negotiations from the Trump administration are being headed up by Secretary of State Marco Rubio and Special Envoy Steve Witkoff. 
Speaking at the United Nations last week, Trump said he was “deeply engaged” in seeking a ceasefire in Gaza. Trump tore into nations that have sought recognition of a Palestinian state.
“The rewards would be too great for Hamas terrorists for their atrocities,&#8221; Trump said. “Instead of giving in to Hamas’s ransom demands, those who want peace should be united with one message: release the hostages now.” 
About 50 hostages taken from Israel on October 7 remain in Hamas captivity, though only 20 are believed to still be alive.
