President Trump releases the outline of the negotiated agreement to end the conflict in Gaza.
President Donald J. Trump’s Comprehensive Plan to End the Gaza Conflict:
1. Gaza will be a deradicalized terror-free zone that does not pose a threat to its neighbors.
2. Gaza will be redeveloped for the benefit of the people of Gaza, who have suffered more than enough.
3. If both sides agree to this proposal, the war will immediately end. Israeli forces will withdraw to the agreed upon line to prepare for a hostage release. During this time, all military operations, including aerial and artillery bombardment, will be suspended, and battle lines will remain frozen until conditions are met for the complete staged withdrawal.
4. Within 72 hours of Israel publicly accepting this agreement, all hostages, alive and deceased, will be returned.
5. Once all hostages are released, 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.
6. Once all hostages are returned, Hamas members who commit to peaceful co-existence and to decommission their weapons will be given amnesty. Members of Hamas who wish to leave Gaza will be provided safe passage to receiving countries.
7. Upon acceptance of this agreement, full aid will be immediately sent into the Gaza Strip. At a minimum, aid quantities will be consistent with what was included in the January 19, 2025, agreement regarding humanitarian aid, including rehabilitation of infrastructure (water, electricity, sewage), rehabilitation of hospitals and bakeries, and entry of necessary equipment to remove rubble and open roads.
8. 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 January 19, 2025, agreement.
9. 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. 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’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.
10. A Trump economic development plan to rebuild and energize 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.
11. A special economic zone will be established with preferred tariff and access rates to be negotiated with participating countries.
12. 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.
13. Hamas and other factions agree to not 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. New Gaza will be fully committed to building a prosperous economy and to peaceful coexistence with their neighbors.
14. A guarantee will be provided by regional partners to ensure that Hamas, and the factions, comply with their obligations and that New Gaza poses no threat to its neighbors or its people.
15. The United States will work with Arab and international partners to develop a temporary International Stabilization Force (ISF) to immediately deploy in Gaza. The ISF will train and provide support to vetted Palestinian police forces in Gaza and will consult with Jordan and Egypt who have extensive experience in this field. This force will be the long-term internal security solution. The ISF will work with Israel and Egypt to help secure border areas, along with newly trained Palestinian police forces. It is critical to prevent munitions from entering Gaza and to facilitate the rapid and secure flow of goods to rebuild and revitalize Gaza. A deconfliction mechanism will be agreed upon by the parties.
16. Israel will not occupy or annex Gaza. As the ISF establishes control and stability, the Israel Defense Forces (IDF) will withdraw based on standards, milestones, and timeframes linked to demilitarization that will be agreed upon between the IDF, ISF, the guarantors, and the Unites States, with the objective of a secure Gaza that no longer poses a threat to Israel, Egypt, or its citizens. Practically, the IDF will progressively hand over the Gaza territory it occupies to the ISF according to an agreement they will make with the transitional authority until they are withdrawn completely from Gaza, save for a security perimeter presence that will remain until Gaza is properly secure from any resurgent terror threat.
17. In the event Hamas delays or rejects this proposal, the above, including the scaled-up aid operation, will proceed in the terror-free areas handed over from the IDF to the ISF.
18. 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.
19. While Gaza re-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.
20. The United States will establish a dialogue between Israel and the Palestinians to agree on a political horizon for peaceful and prosperous co-existence. [SOURCE]
Nice try, but Hamas will never let it work.
They are terrorists, they need to be returned to hell.
If you’re referring to Netanyahu’s “Israel”….I agree.
No I am not referring to Israel.
I am proud to stand with Israel, nobody should have to endure the actions of October 7th.
Anti Semitic much, craig ??
Like to be hopeful in this peace proposal but evil only knows hate, destruction and deception. Never forget Israel is God’s chosen and this is not a battle between Israel and the Palestinians, its an ongoing battle between good and evil
God had his Son born to Jewish ancestry in Israel. But the Son’s purpose was to expose the many problems with the Jewish religion, and proclaim a new kingdom, starting the Catholic Church. We are ALL God’s chosen people!
TRUMP: IF HAMAS REJECTS DEAL, ISRAEL HAS MY FULL BACKING TO DESTROY HAMAS
Bingo
It is a deal where they got more than they ever dreamed of…
They’d be stupid to not accept it and abide by it.
Guess what?
I know, right?
Have you ever heard and seen Rashita?
Could not agree more, unfortunately hamas does battle as cowards (terrorists) and they have zero credibility as negotiators, their past statements and actions have proven that.
Hamas does not understand peace
this is sort of like the west having negotiations with itself about russia and then wondering why russia is not interested in the solution they came up for them.
then again, anyone on the hamas side thats part of the negotiating team gets assassinated, so they can’t really weigh in on whether they accept or not.
Yeah but I can’t help wondering if this isn’t the plan in Russia as well.
Russians go in and wipe out the infrastructure of the Azov brigades and other terror networks and Ukrainian corruption;
return the Ukrainian territory with Russian people back to Russia;
Once complete, everyone (except the globalists and Azov brigades) sings kumbayah and lives happily ever after.
No, Muley. This arrangement was created by Trump meeting with the various Arab nations of the region and getting their input. If Hamas accepts, enforcement will fall to these Arabs.
This agreement ends the Greater Israel plans of Netanyahu and creates a Palestinian state. This agreement ends the genocide of the Palestinians and grants them the right to return to their own land. This agreement knee caps Hamas’ weaponization, enforced by Arabs. The prize is peace. Neither Hamas nor Netanyahu are getting what they wanted. But, maybe they are getting a peace treaty they can both abide by.
And just like that, and rightly so, the USA tells Israel: “You’re on your own. Good luck. We won’t be participating in any ME war.”
carrot and massive stick approach.
I thought we were still working on that part.
That right there is likely what this is really about.
This, plus Qatar will have been in correspondence with Hamas as this deal developed; it is on board with it, and can be expected to say to hell with Hamas themselves if Hamas rejects the deal.
is not Israel – Gaza another proxy war for USA? parallels with Ukraine abounds
No, Ukraine was, Gaza never was. The US had a vested interest in attacking Yemen’s Houthis but only because of the Houthi blockade of international shipping. Otherwise, the US would not have become involved. Unfortunately, Netanyahu started the conflict with Iran without being able to finish it and the US had to step in to prevent the total trashing of Israel.
Israel will come up with a false flag? Israel wants the land. period.
Who gets the alleged offshore Natural Gas?
It’s theirs.
strongly agree
for four hundred years this strip of land on the Mediterranean was under the control of the Ottoman Empire;
after WWI control passed to the Brits for thirty years;
for tte twenty year period following the 1948 Arab-Israeli War, Egypt administered the Gaza Strip;
Israel had control of it for forty years after the the Six-Day War;
until Ariel Sharon and his anti-Israel deputy prime minister, Ehud Olmert, gave it away in 2005 in anattempt to make nice-nice with Egypt who would not, under any conditions, accept the inhabiltants of the Gaza strip into Egypt
Haters will hate, won’t they?
Israel is going to get the land. Not because of any false flag op but because God has given them the land and no one can change that.
Kind of hard to disagree with that logic. 🙌
Israel lost the land when the Babylonians invaded in ~530 BC. This was punishment BY GOD for continued disobedience. Israel lost what God had given them. They were allowed to return 70 years later, but only to facilitate the coming of the Messiah.
Once Jesus came and His kingdom (the Church) was established, God no longer had need for physical Jerusalem and physical Israel. Israel and Judaism were destroyed in AD70 when Rome invaded and destroyed Jerusalem and the temple.
God made an everlasting covenant with Abraham. The land is theirs.
I suggest re-reading Leviticus 26 and Deuteronomy 27-32 again. They are under punishment (Leviticus 26:27-28), which Jesus Christ and Paul both referred to in the New Testament. The punishment of another round of servitude, desolation of the sanctuary, and desolation of Jerusalem was specified in Old Testament prophecy and reiterated in the New Testament.
This is why Paul spoke of Sarah and Hagar but not Keturah (Abraham’s third wife to whom no blessing was given). The church is the indwelling of the Holy Spirit in God’s people. In the Old Testament and in the future (after the Restrainer is removed – also defined in the Old Testament), the Holy Spirit will resume being present with believers but not indwelling without repentance.
The birds which tried to attack Abraham’s sacrifice in Genesis 15 are later explained by Jesus in Matthew 13. That was an unconditional commitment on the part of God, before the Law was given.
LOL…so God decided to back Rome?
‘God’ or your version of ‘God’ can change his/her mind.
Israel had the land. And gave it up.
What does Gary know that the Trump Administration does not
Gary knows the Moslem mind and culture. They are encouraged by that Moe guy who got Hsmmered . Enter treaties so you can rest and rebuild and lull the enemy into complacency. Then break the treaty to push your Moslem beliefs and life on all you capture.
Hey, it is what they believe. Look it up. (But not on Wiki-likely-Librarhoid-Ass-A-Paedia) Do not believe their lies. Moslems are not part of a religion, they are a political cult masquerading as a religion.
It may hold together long enough for the Nobel Prize be awarded, but when the money gives out, all bets are off. If normal, the oil sheiks will pony up about $100 each but the US Taxpayer will have to go borrow another $5 TRILLION to keep things moving. But then the Dems get in, spend the money on Trans, Illegals and Green stuff and the ME explodes. 5 years max!
I spoke with an Iranian ‘moslem’ recently who said that if there wasn’t a terror threat over his head, and all moslems, that they would be killed if they left Islam, he, and many others, would not be moslems. Of course they are all licensed to lie unlike Christianity, but still, that is a slightly hopeful sign.
Just what I thought when I heard “PEACE Plan”.
You have to WANT peace for there to be peace and Hamas DOES NOT want peace. They want the destruction of Israel and all Jews.
Why can’t the idiots running our countries understand that? It’s plain as day from their actions. They speak this from their mouths. It’s in their CHARTER!
But somehow we have morons who refuse to believe all the evidence even after October 7th, 2023.
Willfully blind as bats.
What do they think, “ From the river to the sea” means? It’s not a mystery.
Then Israel has the green light to finish off the job they started.
Win-Win
Amen. It is written.
‘What’ Hamas leadership is ‘sposed to respond to this thing? Aren’t they in hiding?
have to agree. Gold Meir (sp) said it correctly many years ago – They have to love their children more than they hate the Jews. That will never happen.
This whole mess could have ended in 2000 with Arafat. If Arafat had accepted his reason for being would have been lost, so we all lost.
Netanyahu’s goal is to restore the kingdom of David which now comprises Israel, Gaza, Jordan, Lebanon and a portion of Syria and, according to Jewish theology, has to occur to usher the coming of the Messiah. That is Netanyahu’s objective. No deal can/will be made in regards to Gaza – Bibi will see to it. Gaza (what’s left of it) will be completely destroyed and Israel will control it.
Gee Gary, nice negative comment. Sarc.
He’s getting signals from his tinfoil hat.
*TRUMP: BOARD OF PEACE WILL BE HEAD BY ME, ‘NOT AT MY REQUEST’
*TRUMP: NETANYAHU WAS CLEAR OF OPPOSITION TO PALESTINIAN STATE
_____
*TRUMP: PLAN CALLS FOR NEW INTERNATIONAL OVERSIGHT BODY
*TRUMP: OVERSIGHT BODY WILL BE CALLED ‘BOARD OF PEACE’
I wish he hadn’t chosen such an Orwellian name.
It doesn’t exactly inspire confidence.
Hoping for the best but he has a job already and we need him to do that one. It’s not like he doesn’t have other things to do. Why is our President signing on to be Chair for oversight of a land, political and security crisis in another country? Who let’s him agree to this sort of craziness.
Because he does not know anyone else he could delegate the responsibility to and he’s not willing to chance it coming unraveled.
Listening to PDJTs speech, something sounds off. His heart doesn’t sound to be in it. What’s going on here?
He actually just sounds really tired to me.
Retired Magistrate here: Yes, we forget that President Trump is 79 years old and even he gets tired sometimes.
We forget because he spends more time working and has more energy than someone in their twenties. He’s amazing.
I agree. He may be fighting off a cold or something. Seems everyone around me is fighting that fall cold that hits around this time. Hope he gets some rest.
At least he isn’t mumbling and going to sleep like the last president. He’s already done WAY more than Biden (or Obama) ever dreamed of.
He probably knows one side or both will F it up eventually, if not immediately.
I expect he’s just tired of people who don’t want to live, but live by destruction. He’s a builder, not a wrecker.
I’m sure that’s a big part of it.
Probably!
Yes. That is draining to be around.
The Middle East is a never ending crisis. I think Trump understands that there is no great outcome.
Israel hard liners want this to be a once and for all wiping out of Gaza. That will do nothing but create animosity among US allies. Genocide is not the answer, and Trump has demonstrated he wants to end all killing.
Turning Gaza into a province of Israel (a one state solution) without removing the terrorists is like the US annexing Canada or Puerto Rico, you’d add a 51st State of political opposition that threatens the already delicate balance of your government. Israel would collapse without creating an eternal political subclass of Palestinians, again fomenting resentment.
Hamas in a two state solution is guaranteed to regroup and attack again, probably within months of Israeli retreat. So this solution will likely also end with more killing.
Having the US administer a 3rd party provincial government is like installing an occupying force, Gaza won’t like it. This is a governance that will go on for years. And the occupiers are only as good as the administrators installed. We wouldn’t trust the UN to do it, as they would botch it and immediately go anti-Israel. Would we trust the next president to make honorable decisions , or will it collapse into a mess like Ukraine.
So I think coming to this agreement was not easy, and requires all parties to WANT peace. And I think we all see that peace might not be the goal of either Israel or Gaza’s side here.
Did you not know about the warning shot in the form of a flaming secret service vehicle?
he sounded a bit short of breath…you might be right about the heart…for a different reason.
“Hamas and other factions agree to not have any role in the governance of Gaza, directly, indirectly, or in any form.”
That’s a demand for complete and unconditional surrender.
Hamas won’t agree. The war will go on.
“This war” has been going on in one form or another for about 2500 years, since the Second Temple era.
so then, the odds are that it will indeed go on.
Nice one.
Someone or ones has to be controlling Hamas thru funding, sanctuary etc. If they are on board then Hamas must follow.
Those would be Saudis, Iranians, Qatar, Turkey, and the EU, as well as others.
All the people who consistently denounce any Israeli efforts to actually destroy Hamas and other Palestinaina Teroor groups.
All the people who consistently rebuild Gaza after every attempt by Hamas to draw Israel into a an urban meat grinder ends with broad devastation of Gaza.
Every UN Body who ensures Hamas is always well supplied and fed.
Basically, 72 hours… and requires HAMAS to comply.
Great Plan but we are dealing with terrorists and those sympathetic to the HAMAS cause.
Trump mentions “thousands of years”… the conflict will continue and it’s going to get really ugly and it’s sad. Sorry to be a Debbie Downer. I will be absolutely shocked if HAMAS cooperates. They may deliver hostages, but there’s no way they are going to withdraw, remove weapons, and close tunnels.
And hey Tucker, if you are reading here, you need to get on the right side of the tracks. Just sayin’.
what is the right side of the tracks? is that like the “right side of history”?
Right, all along.
How about stop supporting people who raped and killed women and children on 10/7/2023?
Sounds nice, the cynic in me says it’s a stretch. But what the hell, peace is on them. Not us. Put the UN there and let them earn their keep.
Get America out of the Middle East. Let, Israel and the Egyptians manage the place. It will be a hot bed of intelligence activity.
“Peace will come when the Arabs (Muslims) will love their children more than they hate us. – Golda Meir
President Trump may have more difficulty selling ANY peace plan to the US Congress, than he will selling it to the parties to the actual conflict.
War and neverending world strife are mother’s milk to them and their DS brethren. Peace is last on their minds.
“…and their DS
brethren…” heathenThe Hamas game is human shields; it works!
😉😉
The human shields propaganda line!🤣🤣
Highly recommend the Dave Smith and Josh Hammer debate.
Dave Smith had such a KISS..common sense answer.
😉And Israel has— a massive underground military
compound under TelAviv Hospitals…Unit 8200 is in middle of
residential area….
I really don’t believe sane and civilized Americans would…..
A bank robber/terrorist runs into one of our elementary schools…
or hospital….🤷♀️
and because it is a bank robber/terrorist (whatever)….just bomb the
elementary school or hospital…..matter the safety of children or patients
or civilians….meh…no biggie. 🤬🤬
🤔🤔😳😳🤔🤔
why stop before there is total destruction of gaza? Japan and Germany started over, so can the primitives. “and they created a desert and called it peace.” Tacitus It always works!
Given it is the Palestinians, that looks like the plan. lol.
A tiered approach is much more humane and puts additional death and destruction directly back on the Palestinian people.
This will likely create go and no-go zones of those who want to be rid of Hamas and those who want prosperity.
Once footholds are well established it could make it easier to identify and clean out the pockets of resistance … as noted in the agreement:
“Practically, the IDF will progressively hand over the Gaza territory it occupies to the ISF . . .
17. In the event Hamas delays or rejects this proposal, the above, including the scaled-up aid operation, will proceed in the terror-free areas handed over from the IDF to the ISF.”
The proof is in the pudding! As PDJT says,… “We’ll See”,…. and very soon.
If “No Dice” this last time,… then push’em in the Med, if they don’t evac maintenant.
Hamas will likely agree, get 72 hours of ceasefire then have difficulty ‘getting’ the hostages or ‘finding’ the remains of hostages and ask for more time. If this occurs Israel should immediately unleash a massive strike and renew operations. I doubt this plan is acceptable to Hamas, but I think it likely they will agree so they can emerge from their tunnels and get some fresh air and daylight. I hope I am wrong, but I doubt this plan will work because it will be unacceptable to Hamas. The only issue for Hamas will be how to blame Israel for the resumption of the war when Hamas fails to meet its terms by releasing the hostages.
I heard they already lost “two.”
Sad but soooo true.
Will what’s left of Hamas agree to their own demise?
yes
Trump is exhausted having to deal with Bibi, he sucks all the energy out of people
In Christ’s name, STOP!
I second that motion
I feel for POTUS, he then had to meet with Schumer and Co….
Of course, dealing with the always amiable Vladimir Putin is so refreshing.
I think President Trump is just about out of Effs to give about anyone in an official position outside Rubio, Tulsi, Hegseth, Homan, Victor Orban, Javier Milei, and maybe Mohammed bin Salman.
I pretty much am too.
I’m legit hoping UN and NATO membership expenses are first on the chopping block when the government shuts down at midnight of Oct 1st.
Maybe they can declare all our overseas bases to be nonessential and pull all our assets home while we’re at it.
soooo there is another precious beauty…Z……who do same….BFAW
What happens if after completion of item 4, Israel just goes back in again to finish the job they are trying to do? And the hostage families will not be able to complain any more.
They won’t. Israel has always followed Deuteronomy 20:10 “When you go near a city to fight against it, then proclaim an offer of peace to it.” This is why they do the ‘taps’ on buildings before airstrikes, to warn civilians and prevent civilian deaths.
Step 3 requires Hamas to suspend military operations.
Paging Susie Wiles…
Qatar tells US it can convince Hamas to disarm, accept Trump plan
Sources told the Post that Qatar was “capable of persuading Hamas to agree to a deal that includes demilitarization.”
Qatar informed the US President Donald Trump’s administration that it would be able to persuade Hamas to disarm and accept Trump’s 21-point peace plan for Gaza, Sky News Arabia reported on Monday.
Qatari officials reportedly told Trump, along with Arab states, that it was “capable of persuading Hamas to agree to a deal that includes demilitarization,” a source familiar with the details told The Jerusalem Post.
Concurrently with Netanyahu’s visit to the White House, senior Qatari officials are currently in Washington, a source familiar with the details told The Post.
The Qataris are expected to participate in discussions regarding the negotiations for a deal.

I am pretty sure the intercom system is busted, buddy. I may or may not have mashed the button a bit too forcefully in a moment of frustration a few weeks back.. I really didn’t want to have to fill out an Incident Report with HR..
Qatar sucks!
Is a taqiyya a possibility here?
This could be hard to get through the Knesset.
I’ll believe it when I see it…
No two state solution here. That’s refreshing.
Hamas/Palis want to destroy Israel and kill all the Jews,…. more than the want a state.
Trump is making an offer Hamas can’t refuse
Qatar has told Hamas that this the best deal they will get
It is a binary choice for Hamas
1) Hamas agrees and the plan goes forward
2) Hamas says no and Trump says, “I tried, Hamas does not want peace for the Gaza “Palestinians.
Israel is now free to do whatever they want to get the hostages home and destroy Hamas once and for all.
The Gazans had their chance and blew it.”
I have no idea what choice Hamas will make, but if they tell Trump to stick it, then they are finished.
Should already have done that.
I think you have nailed it. I admire Trump for making a peaceful option available. It’s theirs for the taking.
If they want to kill Jews more than they want peace, then that’s their choice.
We all know who will win that war.
Not happenin’.
21: Digital IDs will be issued to all Gazans, and a biometric entry/exit system will be imposed on all who wish to travel in or out of Gaza. For the safety of the Israeli people.
Does that include journalists flying on gliders?
Somehow the most militarized border in the world missed it last timer, makes one wonder
Yeah, Netanyahu’s version of Oct 7 does not pass the smell test.
Sounds like a win either way. Do it.
This is from 2019.
The unrealized potential of Palestinian oil and gas reserves
28 August 2019
Oil and natural gas resources in the occupied Palestinian territory could generate hundreds of billions of dollars for development.
Geologists and resources economists have confirmed that the occupied Palestinian territory (oPt) lies above sizeable reservoirs of oil and natural gas wealth, in Area C of the West Bank and the Mediterranean coast off the Gaza Strip, according to a recent UNCTAD study.
New discoveries of natural gas in the Levant Basin are in the range of 122 trillion cubic foot while recoverable oil is estimated at 1.7 billion barrels, according to the study, entitled “The Economic Cost of Occupation for the Palestinian People: The Unrealized Oil and Natural Gas Potential.”

As a side note the three platforms in the area now where all built in Texas then towed to location, it’s quite an operation and it’s one of those you had to be there and see it.
Most of the crew is from US support companies during commissioning and operation.
You get used to the jets flying over after a while.
“Routes AND Resources”- Micheal Yon
Looking to shore from the platform at night is quite an experience, Israel is lit up like the coast of FL, then it goes dark sans a light here and there, that’s Gaza.
Bonus was going to the lowest level called cellar deck and hand lining tuna and mahi for lunch and dinner. Cook was from New Orleans he learned well.
People in Israel are sick of the constant fear through their entire life, they know it’s the government and one sect in particular.
An affluent friend of mine from St. Pete took a boat from the Bahamas through the Keys all way up the West Coast of Florida hitting all the fishing hotspots on their way to Louisiana. He said the only decent fishing was when they got near the rigs of Alabama..
Yep, the canyons are great all the way to off of LA.
Mahi, cobia, tuna, billfish it’s big fun.
Going to head to Bahamas in next few weeks, glad we didn’t have boat there now!
War in the Caribbean seems imminent..
I tend to think these people would rather die than comply.
IT IS NOT OUR BUSINESS. We should not help in any way. We should not HINDER in any way. I’m sick of all of the foreign politics that we must take responsibility.
As proxies go, WHO is the proxy? Is the US proxy for Israel or is Israel a proxy for the US?
MAGA Amazing!!
👊👊🙏🏻🙏🏻❤️❤️🇺🇸🇺🇸
Jew hating will never end, just like liberalisim, it’s a mental disease.
Someone said if Israel moves to mars the radicals will find a way up there to kill them.
Fortunately, we never see anything like that around here. Well, some, but not a lot. OK, a lot but not a whole lot. Well OK, a whole lot of it but not a whole-whole lot of it anyway.
It came on, though, like a pox upon us!
Is an American Gentile with Maternal Eastern European Jewish Lineage, who questions anything that goes on with the Leadership of Israel a “Jew Hater”?? ..since you seem to be The Expert’s Expert on the subject..
Will Jews be allowed to live in Gaza? Like Muslims are allowed to live in Israel? Or is this all for Muslims only?
For that you only need to understand what’s in the Quran and other holy books of Islam. They are a system of government. They may be allowed to live there but must pay the tax for it and there may be MANY tax collectors and no one cares if they are killed.
Yup. There is never peace with Muslims. Only submission.
Christians certainly aren’t allowed to live there anymore..
No one can say that Trump did not offer them a chance.
A final offer with 72 hours to accept, like a big real estate deal. Except in this case, you say no and Israel is completely unleashed to take all the real estate by force.
I just read through the Peace Plan. I believe that Point 17 states that if Hamas does not accept this plan, the US, Israel, and other countries will go ahead with it anyway and will work together without Hamas. President Trump has fantastic plans for Gaza, utilizing their gorgeous beachfront property. I am optimistic.
TRUMP: IF HAMAS REJECTS DEAL, ISRAEL HAS MY FULL BACKING TO DESTROY HAMAS
What the UN should have done is called an emergency meeting the day after the attack on Israel, demanding a return of all hostages and bodies within 24 hours, secure Israel’s promise to not attack, and demand those responsible for the attack be handed over to a UN force to be put on trial. A failure to do this would mean Israel was justified in attacking and eradicating the threat. Shamefully this did not happen. I have my doubts that the current proposals will be accepted without a surrender by the Hamas forces.
Israel had to attack, though. No one country would just sit there. I honestly believe we should have helped make Gaza a smudge pot at that time.
I felt the same way. But, Trump, God bless him, he tries so hard to get people to consider peace.
THE UN and UNRWA were complicit in October 7.
UNIFIL in Lebanon allowed Hezbollah to build tunnels and place armaments and landmines
Blow the UN up
That will solve a lot of problems
Neither Hamas or Islamic Jihad or the PA or any of the other terrorist organizations want any peace if it means Israel still exists. They do not want any two-state solution and have rejected every proposal for one going back to at least the Peel recommendation of 1937. They only want a one-state solution, their “river to the sea”, in which Israel no longer exists and all the Jews are either dead or forced to flee. And they do not care how many of their own people die while trying to achieve that aim.
They will never accept this new 20-point proposal or any other proposal. If they accept anything, even if they formally sign this proposal, it will only be so that they can gain time to recover and prepare for another war against Israel. It will mean nothing more than that. It will only be temporary until the next time. Both PT and Netanyahu understand this.
Sadly, I agree.
A little aside. What about the WEST BANK?
Judea and Samaria?
Hamas is there too and has launched attacks against Israel. Just 2 days ago a ramming attack killed an Israeli.And Jordan is no saint either. Jordanians including Jordanian police and ex military have come across the Allenby crossing and killed Israelis. Israel has closed that crossing now and the UN and Jordan are furious-“Its not letting the AID in”
Whoa, someone might even think out loud the Arab/Muslim community has found a way out of Palestinian babysitting..
So for now, where is all the terrorism support money going to go? Who won the lottery? 🤷🏼♂️😎
Peace will not be achieved nor beach resort hotels built until every member of Hamas is dead or incarcerated in escape proof prisons. But, President Trump gets another A for effort. “Gun buy back programs?” Come on …
My guess is Hamas will reject the deal!! They were raised from birth to be martyrs and kill Jews! That’s all Hamas can do!!! I look forward to the end of Hamas they’re a plague on humanity! JMO
Muslims have never conceded territory unless they’ve been utterly vanquished. Ever.
Once you allow them a square inch, they will take an entire country.
Exactly!!!! It’s starting in Dearborn, Michigan!!!
Thank you Sundance!
We have some serious concessions here – counting on a foreign Arab force to destroy the tunnels and demilitarize Hamas and other terror organizations. We never had a foreign force taking care of Israel’s security very well. But this force will be under Tony Blair and above him under Trump himself. So Ok. Then there are going to be hundreds of convicted murderers released and thousands of members of terror organizations too. But OK too. We can deal with it for the sake of getting the hostages back and a hope for a better future.
But! What we see here is Qatar, with some other Arab nations, promised to be able to deliver.
I mean to make Hamas agree. It’s against their DNA to disarm and they need the hostages as a life insurance and I doubt if they even have all the hostages.
So the ball is now with Hamas. If they say “yes” great! If they say “no” or more likely “yes, but…” things that Israel can’t accept, then there are three options:
1. Trump supports and let the IDF finish the job. We are now in one of the last two strongholds of Hamas.
2. Starting the plan anyways in the 75% areas of Gaza that the IDF has already cleared (to a good degree). But if Hamas is fighting it, no one will want to come and manage the areas. So it’s really back to option 1, probably.
3. Trying to force Israel to agree to things that are very bad, like securing the survival of Hamas in Gaza, loopholes that enable them to stay armed or in Govenment, etc… I don’t think that Trump will agree.
God Bless Israel and the US.
God put an end to the war and bring us peace and security.
Shalom.
PS. Appreciation for Trump and his team for their time and efforts.
Thank you, David, for this “on the ground” report. I really appreciate you and your timely, informative perspectives.

Option 1.
Thank you!
Good luck, but neither side likes one another, so not holding out hope.
Except one side wants to be left alone to live their best lives. Another thinks it is ok to do what was done to fellow human beings, including infants, on Oct 7th.
Propaganda indeed
There will never be peace with a two state solution. The land belongs to Israel and until that happens there will
never be peace. Gazans/Palestinians are Arabs…do tell, how many Arabs counties are there??? Anyone
seize control of all land to the sea, rebuild, then begin letting in the decent folk one by one, anything else is simply more of the same
Sooooo …. they flattened Gaza to move the money from terrorism into tourism.
It could work.
This tourist is afraid to go to the beach in Fort Pierce…I don’t see a Gaza resort on my travelling itinerary….
Dumb. Good luck.
See ya for another round in 5 years or so.
The current territory that Israel now controls contains most of the tunnels, so Hamas doesn’t really lose anything there, They will hide most of their weapons and give up a few broken pieces, and they will give up a few hostages and get thousands of fighters in return. Yeah, I’m not hoping for much on this except President Trump’s statement that he will step aside and give Israel his full blessing to wipe Hamas out. And maybe that was the purpose of all of this. One way or another, the conflict is going to end. Peace by Hamas giving in, or peace by Hamas no longer existing. I guess I can live with either.
Really?????
Hopefully, this is Hams final opportunity to miss an opportunity.
The “Board of Peace”
Good Grief. Does not any advisor to President Trump read the Bible?
1 Thessalonians 5:1-6
1 But of the times and the seasons, brethren, ye have no need that I write unto you.
2 For yourselves know perfectly that the day of the Lord so cometh as a thief in the night.
3 For when they shall say, Peace and safety; then sudden destruction cometh upon them, as travail upon a woman with child; and they shall not escape.
4 But ye, brethren, are not in darkness, that that day should overtake you as a thief.
5 Ye are all the children of light, and the children of the day: we are not of the night, nor of darkness.
6 Therefore let us not sleep, as do others; but let us watch and be sober.
Take the peace effort in the full context of the entire Bible. There were many times when God brought peace to the land. The verse above does not mean that we should not seek peace.
You miss the point entirely.
“For when they shall say, Peace and safety; then sudden destruction cometh upon them, as travail upon a woman with child; and they shall not escape.”
The point: The world will pursue the lie of peace right up until the Rapture and the Tribulation.
Jesus commanded people to Watch for his return. Not pursue peace.
Mark 13:35-37
35 Watch ye therefore: for ye know not when the master of the house cometh, at even, or at midnight, or at the cockcrowing, or in the morning:
36 Lest coming suddenly he find you sleeping.
37 And what I say unto you I say unto all, Watch.
I don’t want my tax dollars to pay for the redevelopment of Gaza.
Amen to that.
On the bright side, it is better than our tax dollars going to Hamas and terrorism.
I don’t like Point 9. ENOUGH with trying to impose “modern” (read: Western) values and governance on non-Western populations.
in a contest how far to throw and trust who will win? Trump or Bibi
