You know, with yesterday being the 4th of July and with President Trump signing the Big Beautiful Bill it almost overshadowed the fact that Trump is, once again, working to restore peace in the Middle East.
The Wall Street Journal reports that Hamas has accepted the terms of ceasefire deal where they release hostages while the United States works to find a deal to bring the war to a close.
Here are some of the details.
Hamas accepted the framework of a proposed new 60-day cease-fire and hostage-release deal in Gaza that, if concluded, would immediately trigger U.S.-backed negotiations between the militants and Israel aimed at a permanent end to the war, Arab officials involved in the talks said ...
It calls for Hamas to release 10 of the around 20 hostages Israel believes are still alive, along with the bodies of some of the roughly 30 deceased hostages. Hamas would release eight living hostages on the first day of the deal and two on Day 50, the proposal says.
In return, Israel would release a large number of Palestinians it is holding and commit to a 60-day cease-fire. During this period, Israeli forces would gradually withdraw from agreed upon areas in the enclave.
60-day ceasefire, ten of the 20 hostages released during that time, and the United States will help to bring the war to an end.
Candidate Trump's goal of wanting "the killing to stop" looks like it's on its way to fruition under President Trump. At least, if you can trust all of the parties involved.
A big "if."
Trump pushed for a cease-fire in Gaza last week and said earlier this week that Israel had agreed to the necessary conditions for a deal. 'I hope, for the good of the Middle East, that Hamas takes this deal because it will not get better — it will only get worse,' Trump said.
Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu is expected to meet Trump in Washington on Monday.
I don't know how many times Trump has to solve the world's problems before people will admit that he's really, really good at what he does.
