Trump's Gaza Peace Plan: Now Featuring Hostage Body Hide & Seek
White House envoy Steve Witkoff is packing his bags for a diplomatic tour of the Middle East Sunday night to babysit the fragile Gaza peace deal, which so far scored a ceasefire, 20 freed Israeli hostages, and nearly 2,000 Palestinian prisoners strolling out. But don’t pop the champagne just yet: Hamas played ghost returning only 9 of 28 dead hostage bodies, claiming they’re on a scavenger hunt for the rest, while Netanyahu insists Hamas is just big-time lying. Meanwhile, Hamas demands a 'community support committee' to run Gaza and wants Israel to disappear completely. Amidst this chaos, Trump dropped a hotline call to Netanyahu mid-security briefing, assuring he’s 'working on it,' which translates to somewhere between 'maybe' and 'hold my diet Coke.' Witkoff's mission includes pushing for the international stabilization force in Gaza and jump-starting reconstruction in Rafah, hoping the border town becomes the Venice of a post-Hamas Gaza—minus the gondolas and flooding, hopefully.

Hamas treats hostage bodies like misfit toys in Lost & Found, Netanyahu calls BS, and Trump calls Netanyahu mid-session like a frantic soccer mom. Meanwhile, Witkoff preps to babysit Gaza’s political chaos and maybe rebuild a border town for kicks. International peace or reality TV? Stay tuned.
Imagine a peace deal so delicate it requires Trump calling Netanyahu mid-meeting like a bad Uber driver needing directions. Meanwhile, Hamas takes hostage body returns as slow as dial-up internet, proving peace talks can always get weirder.
Hamas hiding hostage bodies like your ex hides receipts, Netanyahu calling it a straight-up lie, and Trump promising to 'work on it' while probably scrolling Twitter. Middle East diplomacy: the ultimate reality show we didn't ask for.
