According to a senior Hamas official, the group plans to reject US President Donald Trump's proposed peace plan for Gaza. Hamas views the plan, which heavily favours Israel, as non-negotiable as it demands disarmament and the surrender of hostages. The proposal also includes the deployment of an International tabilisation Force in Gaza, a move Hamas equates to a new form of occupation.

 

Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu accepted the plan during talks at the White House, despite opposition from Palestinian factions. Hamas is still evaluating the plan with input from its leadership inside and outside Gaza, but officials like military commander Ez al-Din al-Haddad remain committed to resistance. While some within Gaza's population express tentative support if it means an end to the conflict, the conditions remain a point of considerable dispute.

 

Reactions to the plan have further strained relations, as it requires all hostages to be handed over in a single exchange. Doubts persist about Israel’s intentions following the release, especially after recent Israeli military actions against Hamas leaders in Doha. The plan’s proposed buffer zone between Gaza and Egypt, with potentially Israeli oversight, adds another layer of complexity. Netanyahu’s recent statements, advocating for continued Israeli military presence in parts of Gaza, contradict Trump's framework.

 

The situation remains tense, as calls for a ceasefire echo through Gaza. Residents and experts warn that a rejection by Hamas could escalate hostilities further. Palestinian journalist Fathi Sabah highlighted the dire conditions in Gaza, stressing the population’s desperate need for peace, even at significant compromise.

 

Israel's military campaign, launched in retaliation for the 7 October 2023 attack led by Hamas, which resulted in over 1,200 Israeli fatalities, continues to exert a heavy toll on Gaza, with reports of massive casualties and humanitarian crises.

 

 

Key Takeaways

 

• Hamas is likely to reject Trump's peace plan, citing bias toward Israel.
• Plan demands Hamas disarmament and a contested buffer zone arrangement.
• Ongoing conflict in Gaza exacerbates human suffering and tensions.

Again Hamas leaders  couldn't care less about their fellow muslims.  They rather continue looting the aide money adding to the billions they have already stolen.  They will get what they deserve. 

I'm sorry to see that an agreement to return the hostages and end the IDF atrocities has not been reached, but the proposal was definitely too pro-Israel and anti-Palestine. 🥺

Hamas doesn't want peace.

 

It wants to slaughter the infidels.

Well if it was trump talking…..you know he’s a bit…..scatter brained…..anyway .looks to me that the Palestinians need to take matters into their own hands and kill all the hammas guys themselves.god what a lousy hopeless position to be in,sucks to be Palestinian.sad 

The plan was flawed from the start without the participation of Hamas and Qatar. The core contention from Hamas's perspective were the no guaranteed timeline for a full Israeli withdrawal from Gaza and dismantling of Hamas military infrastructure. Trump and Netanyahu are dictating the plan that was seen as completely biased to Israel. A peace plan is urgently needed to stop the humanitarian castastrophe. Trump's leadership on this is appalling as he is succumbing to the manipulation of Netanyahu.

Trump is a peacemaker and NOT a war monger so by not sending his own troops in and tapping NATO to go   into battle he can maintain that stance. Also the European countries have a lot more to gain than the U.S. has and should fight their own battles but are very inefective on their own and need assistance to be successful.The same goes for the Russian / Ukraine war I reckon that  could also end up the same way if Putin doesn't wake up.

what parts of the agreement that was constructed by Egypt, Qatar, and Turkey with Palestinian Authority, Israel, US, Saudi,French  participation do you object to?

What is too pro-israel and anti-palestine?  Are you objecting to the withdrawal of the Israeli military, or the establishment of a Palestinian led authority? 

The Palestinian Authority is in agreement as is every arab nation who provides aid to the Palestinians. 

The reality is that you have not even read the proposal and are instead relying on your  own hatred of Israel to dismiss this agreement.

You are giving us your Hamas talking points. The agreement is  clear that  Israel starts handing over positions and withdrawing once the International Security Force moves in. If the IDF were to withdraw now, Hamas would simply go back to what it was doing before and continue to hold and torture hostages. Hamas objects because it will no longer be allowed to continue as ruler of Gaza.

My main objection is that the plan does not give any assurances of a two-state solution.
I have not read the entire proposal, and I am relying on the summary of the proposed agreement by CNN. I am also relying on my hatred of the right-wing faction in Israel that is now controlling the Israeli government and is committing genocide on the Palestinians in an effort to take over all of the area that used to be called  Palestine.

I've stated on many other posts that I favor a legitimate and enforced two-state solution based on the original division of Palestine by the UN in 1947. If that cannot be agreed upon, I suggest a one-state solution where Palestinians are given back all the land and the Israelis are removed from Palestine and relocated to Goshen in Egypt, which is where they originally came from.

Hamas did not attack Israel to implement a two state option. Hamas is pledged to the  destruction of Israel. Hamas will not accept a two state option. Therefore there is nothing Israel can do that would satisfy Hamas.

The Gaza peace agreement transfers control of Gaza to the Palestinian Arabs and ensures a withdrawal of  Israeli military forces.

Hopefully this pushes trump and Netanyahu closer together

 

together they are a real force against evil

I agree that Hamas does not want a two-state solution. Neither does Israel. 
And, the current proposal only mentions Gaza. What about the West Bank? What about all the other land that used to be Palestine that Israel has seized by force and now claims as their own? Take a look at the UN map of 1947 and then the map of what Israel claims as their property now. I think (but, of course, I don't know for sure) that if the 1947 map were offered as a two-state solution, the Palestinians, even Hamas, would certainly consider that.

Trumps only goal in this is to have total Real Estate control of the entire country starting with developing the entire beach front, The Trump Riviera Complex. His only concern is Personal Financial Enrichment for himself and his family in perpetuity. No concern for people on either side just how much money he can aquire from his illegal and inhumane dealings. If trump agrees with a plan it's obviously bad for everyone but himself. When 2 War Criminals agree to a plan, there's a big problem hiding in plain sight.

The vagueness of the withdrawal plan is not helpful for Hamas to accept. This statement by Netanyahu below doesn't exult much confidence that Israel will withdraw completely which is the central demand by Hamas. Looks like Netanyahu had again influenced Trump to made significant changes to Trump's proposal regarding the scope and nature of IDF's withdrawl from Gaza. 

 

“Now the whole world, including the Arab and Muslim world, is pressuring Hamas to accept the terms that we created together with Trump, to bring back all the hostages — the living and the dead —while the IDF stays in the majority of the Strip,” Netanyahu said in a video he posted to social media.

“Who would have believed it?!” Netanyahu exclaimed in Hebrew, relishing the terms of Trump’s plan.

Trump is so brazen in profiting from the ravages of Gaza that he even inserted this clause in the 20 point Gaza peace plan. 

 

Pt 10. A Trump economic development plan to rebuild and energise Gaza will be created by convening a panel of experts who have helped birth some of the thriving modern miracle cities in the Middle East. Many thoughtful investment proposals and exciting development ideas have been crafted by well-meaning international groups, and will be considered to synthesize the security and governance frameworks to attract and facilitate these investments that will create jobs, opportunity, and hope for future Gaza.

Sending someone else's troops, whom he has no authority over whatsoever, does not make him a peacemaker; more of a coward really.

You may wish to examine the NATO principles below -

Your claim that Europe should fight its own battles, in the Middle East, are without logic or justification.

Netanyahu can say what he wants to get  multiple factions onboard with the plan, but the agreement is specific and Israel has shown that it  follows agreements when there are peace treaties and truces. It is Hamas that repeatedly violated  truces and  agreements.  This map is circulating and appears in Daily Mail. Israel will withdraw once the hostages are released and the Palestinian Administration takes control of Gaza. Hamas is refusing to go and will sacrifice everyone and anyone to hold onto Gaza.

 

 

Blue- Current IDF line of control

Yellow - Initial withdrawal – hostage release

Red- 2nd withdrawal – when ISF* mobilised

Last 3rd withdrawal – security buffer zone

 

The reality is that Hamas is not in any position to dictate terms. IT has lost the war and clings to power like other despot groups who refuse to go.

Where does it say Trump will profit? How about being honest? The Qataris, Saudis and UAE will be financing the development and rebuilding along with the EU, and canada. Billions of $$ will flow in. It is to be expected that in order to minimize loss due to the endemic corruption in the Palestinian Arab areas that the donor states are going to maintain some control of the  money. look at the quality of build in Dubai v. the Palestinian Authority. The UAE put up magnificent quality buildings. The Palestinian Arabs despite having access to the funds and building materials put up structures that resemble Soviet era buildings. It wasn't Israel that caused that. Syria was another example. In the heyday of the Assad regime, its "prestige''  buildings were crap because the money was skimmed by Assad cronies. Turkey is another example of failure. The buildings that quickly crumbled during the earthquakes came about because of poor build quality.  In the UAE, Qatar, KSA, Oman, the Arabs have  quality buildings comparable to those found in the west.

 

The Palestinian authority, Turkey, Egypt, and Qatar have endorsed this agreement. They have been champions of the Gaza people for the past 2 years. It is only Hamas  and its allies in Islamic Jihad who object. Why are these violent militants right and every other Arab (and Turk) wrong? Hamas rules by force.

Gaza is not a country. Hamas does not have a legal mandate to rule in Gaza or in the areas now managed by the Palestinian Authority. The Palestinian Authority agreed to this proposal and it has the support of the region. Why then is Hamas and Islamic jihad right, while everyone else is wrong?

W.D. I saw on the news last night that Israil will give back the land that they seized years ago and that is part of Trumps proposal.

What a brilliant plan/ Completely ignore the more than 2 million people that  it directly affects, completely ignore other countries efforts to bring peace to the region, completely ignore the hostages held by the military wing of Hamas, completely ignore the 5,xxx plus Palestinians held without charges held by Israel.

 

Trump and the USA plus Israel can make money from the land that rightfully belongs to the Palestinians and NOBODY else.

 

That is the most important thing, followed by giving Israel everything it wants and evicting, murdering or starving every one of the over 2,xxx,xxx Palestinians, absolutely nothing in return.

 

Great plan (for some).

President Donald Trump unveiled a new peace plan Monday to end Israel’s siege on Gaza and, while the plan had initially received buy-in from top Arab leaders, last-minute changes made just moments before its unveiling have infuriated Arab officials, according to a report Tuesday from Axios.

 

“Netanyahu managed to negotiate several edits into the text, in particular on the conditions and timetable for Israel's withdrawal from Gaza,” wrote Axios reporter Barak Ravid, an Israeli journalist who spoke with multiple Arab officials on the condition of anonymity.

 

“Officials from Saudi Arabia, Egypt, Jordan and Turkey were furious over the changes, according to sources with knowledge. The Qataris even tried to convince the Trump administration not to release the detailed plan on Monday due to those objections. The White House released it anyway, and pushed the Arab and Muslim countries to support the plan.”

 

Arab leaders 'furious' over last-minute changes to Trump’s peace plan: report

Bowen: Momentum is the strength of Trump's Gaza plan, but lack of detail is its weakness

 

The Trump document gives an indeterminate nod to the idea of Palestinian independence. It says that after the reform of the Palestinian Authority, which is based in Ramallah and led by President Mahmoud Abbas, conditions "may finally be in place for a credible pathway to Palestine self-determination and statehood, which we recognise as the aspiration of the Palestinian people."

 

Even the thought of a distant prospect of a Palestinian state was too much for Netanyahu, who had given whole-hearted support to Trump at the White House, telling him in English "I support your plan to end the war in Gaza, which achieves our war aims."

 

On the video, getting his message out in Hebrew to the people back home before the long flight home, Netanyahu is asked if he agreed to a Palestinian state. He was emphatic.

"No, absolutely not. It's not even written in the agreement. But we did say one thing. That we would forcibly resist a Palestinian state." Trump, he said, agreed.
