Trump’s All-or-Nothing Gaza Gambit: Hostages or Bust!

In a cosmic plot twist that somehow feels like a reality TV finale, White House envoy Steve Witkoff conveyed to hostage families that President Trump is ditching the “partial and phased” Gaza ceasefire idea for an "all or nothing" master plan. Witkoff admitted he doesn't have 'perfect news,' but insists, 'we are going to be successful here ultimately.' Meanwhile, Netanyahu’s incremental approach tanked faster than your Wi-Fi at Thanksgiving dinner, and Hamas continues its classic mic drop, refusing disarmament without Palestinian statehood. So strap in, folks — it's hostage negotiations as a high-stakes poker game!
