Under a sweeping White House plan, former British PM Tony Blair will join Gaza’s governing board run by the US president Donald Trump.
Trump and Israeli prime minister Benjamin Netanyahu revealed 20-point White House plan that administration officials believe can end Israel’s war in Gaza.
The war monger Sir Tony said the plans were “the best chance of ending two years of war, misery and suffering”.
Netanyahu has warned Hamas to accept Trump’s deal, which would see the militant group relinquish its arms and role in Gaza politics.
The Independent reports: Both leaders have threatened that if Hamas does not accept the US president’s terms, then Trump will let Israel “finish the job.” The militant group says it is studying the proposal.
“This can be done the easy way or it can be done the hard way, but it will be done,” Netanyahu said.
The president’s latest proposal — walking back his previous goal of expelling Palestinians — follows a growing embrace of Palestinian statehood in defiance of American and Israeli opposition.
Trump’s plan would appoint him as the chair of a “board of peace” serving as an oversight body led by a committee that includes former British prime minister Tony Blair.
Netanyahu’s visit to the White House marks his fourth trip to Washington since Trump returned to office, with Israel once more seeking to shore up U.S. support amid growing international hostility to the devastation in Gaza.
Hamas says it is reviewing Trump’s Gaza plan ‘in good faith’
Hamas negotiators are said to be reviewing Donald Trump’s plan for peace in Gaza “in good faith” as Benjamin Netanyahu threatened the militants to accept the deal.
The U.S. President’s 20-point plan was unveiled on Monday, and Israeli prime minister Benjamin Netanyahu threw his support behind it at a press conference at the White House.
Trump said that if Hamas rejects the deal, Netanyahu would have his “full backing to do what you would have to do”. Netanyahu hailed the plan as a “critical step” towards peace in Gaza and beyond.
He said: “I believe that, today, we’re taking a critical step towards both ending the war in Gaza and setting the stage for dramatically advancing peace in the Middle East – and I think beyond the Middle East, very important Muslim countries.
“I support your plan to end the war in Gaza, which achieves our war aims.”It will bring back to Israel all our hostages, dismantle Hamas’s military capabilities, end its political rule and ensure that Gaza never again poses a threat to Israel.”
He warned: “But if Hamas rejects your plan, Mr President, or if they supposedly accept it and then basically do everything to counter it, then Israel will finish the job by itself.”
BREAKING: Trump just told Netanyahu that if Hamas rejects his Principles for Peace, he has full permission to use ANY MEANS NECESSARY to eliminate Hamas.
