Trump orders Hostages released

[Will B Good]

Let's hope the Hamas negotiators don't all migrate to BlueSky and miss this kind of proactive diplomacy.

Agreed. I think he's talking about the kind of "war" that will be over and done with in 10 minutes.

Which, if any, war has been over in 10? Just curious...

Trump is the MAN! Not even inaugurated and in effect the POTUS already. Given that Biden is out to lunch and Harris has apparently vanished, someone has to do the job. World events don't go on hiatus just because there is a transition period in the US. Normally the current POTUS is still functioning, but, well we all know why Biden isn't doing much. Never has dead duck been a more appropriate description.

The bloke is waffling, surrounded by protection.........

Here is the first test for President Trump.

Don't mess with Uncle Sam. Read the whole post.

 

Eliminating Iran's military would be a great start. It's not like they have any way to stop it lol

 

 

 

So much for your claims he's gonna be a president of peace! The down hill slide has begun and his promises will vanish like a fart in the wind.

Bluesky: Created by Twitter co-founder Jack Dorsey, Bluesky is a decentralized platform gaining traction. Its user base is growing quickly but is still relatively small compared to X.....or were you just joshing?

Your right about that. Never before has a president be as stupid and ignorant than trump, except for trump the first time.  Yeah wait and see how f'd up he can make things.

Charlie Kirk: What would change your vote for Trump?. Wars... Well he was the first president in 32 years for no new wars.... New war under Obama, new war under Bush, new war under Clinton, new war under Biden.... No new wars under Trump for 4 years..... Hummmm, as I was saying. All about power................. https://youtube.com/shorts/mizFLnPXR_4?si=aEyBS4RgqYrpPigN

What Would Change your Vote for TRUMP?!😱🔥 #charliekirk #debate

QuickPolitics

 

And......

but many leaders were hesitant to start belligerence in this world, when the most powerful country is overlooking. And the USA became very weak under Biden

 

Take a listen....................... https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=84_3Hc7J0Uo

Your are about asoff base as they come. No significant world power is worried about trump.

The next one, if they start throwing nukes around.  Maybe a bit longer than 10 minutes, but bot much.

An example...

 

https://www.israelhayom.com/2024/12/09/trumps-hostage-envoy-the-president-said-he-wants-the-hostages-and-he-will-get-them/

 

Plus trump endeavours to 'negotiate' by tweets / social media posts

Rubbish, that's obviously not breaking any serious protocols otherwise the amount of tweets he's come out with on Ukraine would have stopped it along with direct meetings with Zelensky and others. 

 

Sounds like you'd prefer Trump to do this which was a pointless exercise in showing just how ignorant you are on the matter.

 So Does trump mean he's going to make the rubble bounce or indiscriminately kill more civilians?

 The fact that there seems to be some positive movement in the hostage dealing is a cause for hope, not your pathetic and lame comments on rubble bounce

People reporting to trump, but not yet confirmed in their positions are negotiating. Under the Logan Act my understanding it is illegal for private individuals to negotiate with foreign governments / entities. i.e. One President at a time" during the transition period.

Yes Its illegal for non governmental individuals to negotiate even if you think they are. They have to be appointed, vetted and confirmed. Trump cant even negotiate even though several ill-informed individuals on AN think he can. He can talk to foreigner leaders but he's not an official yet. The current govt is still functioning but some are blinded by Trump propaganda. Negotiation by unconfirmed non governmental individuals will nullify their appointment position during processing

I think you meant to say lame duck.  If he was a dead duck the VP would be in charge.

There is no guarantee whatsoever that trump can positively contribute to the release of hostages in Gaza prior to his confirmation. . IMO it is not constructive to have two US separate political parties attempting to negotiate, just muddies the waters. However, let's see what happens in the coming month. Maybe Netanyahu has a secret agreement with trump to agree a hostage release deal just after his inauguration.

 

   Hamas seem to be wanting to release the hostages BEFORE Trump gets in power .

   It wouldn't take long for Trump to send packaged  bombs to Israel and for Israel to pass those bombs into Iran unpackaged

Since English has so many words and phrases derived from "dead" languages, usually at the higher levels, thats quite a well used phrase among my intellectual and social milieu, so it could be called "english"

Good thing you are not a moderator.  Can't even use English correctly.  The contraction for I am is I'm and not Im.

I took two years of Latin in high school and received a foreign language award at graduation.

Well clearly YOU haven't learned.  The contraction of did no is didn't, not didnt.

No one asked you to translate.  I know what the phrase it means.  I was making light of you not following forum rules.  You are so full of it, thinking you do not need to use a spellchecker.  Go play your holier than thou games with someone else.
