In exchange for the immediate release of hostages, Trump's plan excludes Israel's primary objective of the war: destroying Hamas. Although Hamas will not serve in Gaza's interim civil administration, it is not completely barred from indirectly participating in Gaza's reconstruction
Netanyahu's unequivocal support for Trump's proposal has divided both his allies and his opponents, with many in both camps doubtful the plan will be carried out – whether due to Hamas' unwillingness to agree to a deal, or because the prime minister would cave to far-right ministers Smotrich and Ben-Gvir
We defended the war in Gaza, which began a just war and then became something else, but we continued to offer the war our support. Now that a possibility exists to finally end the fighting, will we have the courage to repent for our sin and do what must be done to end the slaughter and the suffering?
Foreign ministers from seven countries across Asia and North Africa said President Trump's plan must create a path toward a just peace on the basis of the two-state solution, under which Gaza will be integrated with the West Bank in a Palestinian state
If Hamas rejects Trump's proposal, Israel has U.S. backing to continue its systematic destruction of Gaza, even at the cost of Israeli hostages' lives. When all the rhetoric is stripped away, the peace plan offers a choice between 'soft' foreign occupation or a violent, uncompromising Israeli one

He compelled him to apologize to Qatar's prime minister and unveiled a plan to end the Gaza war, each clause a regional drama. After receiving only lukewarm praise from the president, Netanyahu now returns to face turmoil in his coalition
Since the war broke out on October 7, 2023, Netanyahu has disrupted Gaza cease-fire talks and agreements in a variety of ways. The question now is whether he will also choose to do so in an election year
The Knesset approved a NIS 31 billion increase to the 2025 state budget to cover the costs of 'Gideon's Chariots A' and the attack on Iran ■ The IDF's demand for NIS 20 billion to fund 'Gideon's Chariots B' is not covered in the budget ■ This is the fifth time in two years that the government has broken the approved budget
The term 'humanitarian' masks a policy of forced displacement and ethnic cleansing, which are war crimes and crimes against humanity, while the aid itself is used to exacerbate the existing humanitarian disaster in the Gaza Strip and perpetuate irreversible demographic change
Ending the war, freeing the hostages: The Trump plan answers the key priorities of the Israeli public. But the proposal also offers Hamas the chance to achieve one of its holy grails – unless Netanyahu manages to push them into refusal
