Gaza War Ends: Hostages, Prisoners & Trump’s Mid-East Cameo
In a plot twist more crowded than an overstuffed pita at the Rafah crossing, Israel's Cabinet gave the green light to a deal signed by—but wait—Israel, Hamas, Qatar, Egypt, and Turkey, kinda like the UN but with more flair and Steven Witkoff & Jared Kushner cameo-ing alongside Netanyahu. Within 24 hours, Israeli forces start an awkward withdraw-from-Gaza dance, while Hamas plans to return 20 stolen souls after two years of involuntary vacation. To sweeten the peace platter, Israel promises to release 1,950 prisoners — some guilty of serious stuff — shipped either home or exile with more dignity than an Airbnb cancellation. Hostage body swaps? 28 for 360. Trump’s expected to jet in Sunday, probably to deliver a cameo speech at the Knesset because nothing says 'peace' like encore performances from Mar-a-Lago’s alumni. Also, a high-stakes scavenger hunt for missing bodies involving a coalition task force sounds like the collaboration no one saw coming but apparently needed.

Nothing screams 'peace deal' like a cast reunion with Netanyahu, Kushner, and a cameo from Trump plotting a cameo at the Knesset, while prisoners get traded like Pokémon and Rafah crossing opens as the latest Middle East pop-up event.
Israel, Hamas, Qatar, Turkey, Egypt, and two of Trump’s besties walk into a peace deal—sounds like the start of a bad joke, but nope, it’s our new geopolitical reality show.
Releasing nearly 2,000 prisoners because why not? It’s like handing out Halloween candy in October except the stakes include decades-long sentences and unresolved wars.
