Summary

Trump’s proposal for the U.S. to take over Gaza and resettle its Palestinian population was widely condemned by allies and adversaries alike.

Arab nations, including Egypt and Saudi Arabia, firmly rejected the plan, reaffirming support for Palestinian sovereignty. U.S. allies like Australia and New Zealand reiterated their backing of a two-state solution.

Critics, including Palestinian leaders and Hamas, denounced the move as illegal and destabilizing.

U.S. lawmakers also opposed it, with some calling it “dangerous” and “ethnic cleansing.”

      If that were true then why agree a ceasefire at all? If hostages were disposable then it would serve his purposes better to sabotage negotiations, blame Hamas, and continue destroying Rafah.

      As it stands there appears to be at least some elements in Israel that count retrieving the hostages to be more important.

        They literally killed hostages raising a white flag. And killed hostages on October 7 with Hannibal directive.

        There are many reasons behind agreeing to ceasefire but the hostages what the least of his concern.

        It was a quid pro quo with the Trump transition team. He gave them a big win and made Biden look ineffectual on the way out. Then Trump got into office and rewarded Bibi with a very very favourable outcome
