President Trump Issues Hamas a Warning: Accept Peace Plan or Face a Very Sad End
By The Blog Source
President Donald Trump warned that Hamas would meet "a very sad end" if it rejected his 20-point offer for peace in Gaza, and he gave the terror group "three or four days" to embrace it. After Israel agreed to the U.S.-backed accord, which demands a rapid cease-fire, hostage exchanges, and Hamas disarming, the ultimatum was issued.
"We're just waiting for Hamas," Trump told reporters Tuesday, highlighting the group's limited negotiating leverage. "It will either be Hamas doing it or not, and if not, it will be a very sad end."
The agreement, which Israel approved on Monday, lays out a plan for putting an end to the conflict in Gaza, releasing hostages, and forming a transitional government that will be supervised by the international community. According to Qatari mediators, Hamas is examining the plan in Doha but was not present at the negotiations.
Even while Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu expressed concerns about Trump's path to Palestinian statehood, he eventually supported it in response to growing internal pressure to put an end to the conflict. In contrast, Hamas has previously refused demilitarization unless statehood is assured.
In his attempts to put a stop to the war in Gaza, President Donald Trump’s remarks on Tuesday represent a significant turning point. Trump openly pushed Hamas to accept the parameters of his 20-point peace proposal within "three or four days" after gaining Israel's assent, portraying the deadline as the last chance to avoid devastation. Trump told reporters that the plan was the "best and only way" to bring about peace, saying that there was little space for debate.
An immediate cease-fire, the release of all captives still alive, a phased Israeli military departure from Gaza, and Hamas disarming are all part of the U.S.-brokered agreement. To supervise Gaza's transition and rehabilitation, it also calls for the establishment of a provisional governing council supported by an international alliance. Future Palestinian statehood is still possible under the idea, but only if stringent reforms and security assurances are implemented that eliminate Hamas' armed wing.
Hamas was evaluating the offer in Doha, according to Qatari Foreign Ministry spokesperson Majed al-Ansari, who referred to mediators as "optimistic" but warned that it was too soon to foresee a response. In contrast to their skepticism of Trump's previous peace attempts, Arab governments, including those in Saudi Arabia, Jordan, the United Arab Emirates, Qatar, and Egypt, have already indicated their support for the Trump plan, marking a huge diplomatic victory.
Prime Minister Netanyahu has had to deal with growing demonstrations in Israel calling for the safe return of captives and an end to the conflict. Netanyahu supported Trump's plan, stating that it offers "a path to peace consistent with Israel's security needs," despite his skepticism about clauses that allude to eventual Palestinian statehood.
In contrast, the U.S.-led framework has angered Hamas. Although regional officials are urging Hamas to embrace the plan in order to put an end to the violence, a source close to the group told Reuters that it was "completely biased toward Israel." Under Trump's clear countdown, the leadership of Hamas now has the final say in the matter.
