Trump Releases New Gaza Plan, Demands Hamas Accepts

“Thank you very much, everybody. Israel would have my full backing to finish the job of destroying the threat of Hamas. But I hope that we’re going to have a deal for peace. And if Hamas rejects the deal, which is always possible. As you know, Bibi, you’d have our full backing to do what you would have to do.” “All our hostages, both those who are alive and those who died, all of them will return home immediately. Hamas will be disarmed. Gaza will be demilitarized. Israel will retain security responsibility, including a security perimeter, for the foreseeable future. But 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.”
