Trump wrote on his Truth Social platform on Friday that an agreement must be reached by 18:00 Washington time (22:00 GMT) on Sunday.

The plan proposes an immediate end to fighting and the release within 72 hours of 20 living Israeli hostages held by Hamas - as well as the remains of hostages thought to be dead - in exchange for hundreds of detained Gazans.

Arab and Turkish mediators are understood to be pressing Hamas for a positive response to the proposal, but a senior Hamas figure has said the armed group is likely to reject it.

"If this LAST CHANCE agreement is not reached, all HELL, like no one has ever seen before, will break out against Hamas. THERE WILL BE PEACE IN THE MIDDLE EAST ONE WAY OR THE OTHER," Trump wrote in the Truth Social post....................

....and giving up governing Gaza. Israel isn't going to allow any outcome that keeps Hamas armed and in power.

12. A horrible "deal" for Palestinians and likely not worth the paper it's written on and Hamas knows it.

In return for a stop to their own genocide, Palestinians give up their right to self-determination (it's now made conditional), right to representative governance, the protection of the UN (instead getting Trump as their colonial master), sovereignty, freedom from occupation (Israel to maintain "security paramater" which is unspecified and totally up to whatever Israel says it is), contiguity of territory, etc. And is exposes them to foreign and Israeli exploitation of their resources. There is no equal application of deradicalization (if anybody needs that, it's Israel), nor reparations, accountability for war crimes and the cost of damages caused by violation of international law by Israel etc.

It's a plan written by Netanyahu and dictated to Kushner, Blair and Witkoff. There are no guarantees or timelines for any conditions favourable to Palestine, only Israel, allowing Netanyahu to manipulate the process and in fact call off the plan any time he wants. Which would likely be within 72 hours, as soon as he gets the hostages back. And certainly well before the release of the Palestinian prisoners agreed to - which, btw, would still leave over 7,000!!! Palestinians, most of them innocent and kidnapped from Gaza, rotting in Israeli jails. Then it's bombs away!

This will happen even if Hamas accepts, because Netanyahu has neither morals nor honour. He does however have a very transparent agenda - "This place belongs to us".

Netanyahu has already stated he will "forcefully reject" a two-state solution and rejects withdrawal of Israeli forces too - said a mere hours after he lied to Trump's oblivious or complicit face. Sabotage again, brazen too.

Whether you think Hamas will accept or not depends on how stupid - or cornered - you think they are.

11. So if Captain Bone Spurs doesn't get his way is he going to send in "his" Marines? Or is he just going to N-word Gaza?

Would either one of those things be an illegal order? Those hard decisions I spoke about a couple of days ago may come sooner rather than later.
