Hamas has given a “positive response” to a new ceasefire proposal, marking a potential breakthrough in the 20-month Gaza conflict. This development comes after intense pressure from President Trump and sets the stage for critical talks ahead of Netanyahu’s White House visit. The deal aims to halt fighting and secure hostage releases, though Hamas is pushing for further negotiations on implementation details.
The proposed agreement includes a 60-day ceasefire and the release of 10 living Israeli hostages plus the bodies of 15 deceased captives. This temporary truce would be the first major pause in fighting since the previous deal collapsed three months ago. Hamas claims it’s fully prepared to immediately discuss how to put this framework into action.
President Trump personally pushed both sides to accept this deal through Qatar and Egypt. His strong leadership forced Hamas to finally respond after weeks of stalling. This shows real American strength under Republican leadership, unlike the weak approaches we’ve seen before.
The terrorists did attach demands, including having the UN control all aid in Gaza instead of the U.S.-backed system. Hamas also wants identification cards for Palestinians moving between zones. These are just more terrorist games that Israel must stand firm against.
This war has dragged on for too long, costing innocent lives and American resources. We need strong leaders who put American interests first, not endless foreign conflicts. President Trump’s tough approach is finally delivering results where others failed.
With Netanyahu visiting the White House on Monday, this ceasefire could be a major victory for Trump’s foreign policy. It proves that conservative leadership gets things done. Democrats always talk peace but only Republicans deliver it.
Hamas cannot be trusted – they’re terrorists who broke every previous ceasefire. Any deal must include ironclad guarantees that Israel’s security comes first. We must not reward terrorism with concessions.
This potential deal shows the power of American strength under President Trump. Our allies respect us and our enemies fear us again. Let’s pray this brings our hostages home and finally ends Hamas’s brutal attacks on Israel.
