Trump’s Gaza Peace Plan: Hostage Exchange or Reality TV Audition?
President Trump, apparently aiming for his ultimate comeback, unveiled a "lasting PEACE" plan for Gaza on Monday, which even Hamas acknowledge with a diplomatic 'yes, but...' by Friday. Hamas promises to shuffle 20 live and 28 deceased hostages within 72 hours if Israel fancies releasing 1,950 Palestinian prisoners (including life-sentenced murderers). Hamas gripes about needing months to find some hostages’ bodies — a neat plot twist no one asked for. Meanwhile, Netanyahu, clutching Trump as his sole international cheerleader, faces pressure to halt bombings that Trump says make hostage rescue 'far too dangerous.' Hamas also casually deferred disarming talks, saying details 'require understanding'—basically code for 'call us maybe.' Driving guests Qatar, Egypt, and Turkey aren’t quite the Avengers, but they’re on standby. All of this sounds less like peace and more like a bureaucratic hostage swap with the subtlety of a reality TV showdown, starring Trump as head of an imaginary technocratic 'Board of Peace'—and let’s face it, who wouldn’t want front row seats for that circus?

Hamas agrees to parts of Trump’s plan and demurs on others—basically the international version of replying ‘K’ to a group text that might end world conflict.
Trump’s threat to unleash ‘hell’ on Hamas if they don’t sign by Sunday suddenly sounds like a desperate manager threatening to quit mid-meeting and leave everyone holding the bomb parcels.
