“But I hope we’re gonna have a deal. If Hamas rejects the deal…they’re the only one left…if not, Bibi, you’d have our full backing – to do what you would have to do.” 👀
“Israel agreed to my plan. All Arab countries agreed. If Hamas refuses, Israel has my full support to finish the job.”
Trump’s full 20-point plan to end Israel’s war in Gaza:
- Gaza will be a deradicalized terror-free zone that does not pose a threat to its neighbors.
- Gaza will be redeveloped for the benefit of the people of Gaza, who have suffered more than enough.
- If both sides agree to this proposal, the war will immediately end. Israeli forces will withdraw to the agreed upon line to prepare for a hostage release. During this time, all military operations, including aerial and artillery bombardment, will be suspended, and battle lines will remain frozen until conditions are met for the complete staged withdrawal.
- Within 72 hours of Israel publicly accepting this agreement, all hostages, alive and deceased, will be returned.
- Once all hostages are released, Israel will release 250 life sentence prisoners plus 1,700 Gazans who were detained after Oct. 7 2023, including all women and children detained in that context. For every Israeli hostage whose remains are released, Israel will release the remains of 15 deceased Gazans.
- Once all hostages are returned, Hamas members who commit to peaceful co-existence and to decommission their weapons will be given amnesty.
- Upon acceptance of this agreement, full aid will be immediately sent into the Gaza Strip. At a minimum, aid quantities will be consistent with what was included in the Jan. 19, 2025.
- Entry of distribution and aid in the Gaza Strip will proceed without interference from the two parties.
- Gaza will be governed under the temporary transitional governance of a technocratic. … Trump will chair a supervising “Board of Peace” to oversee the new government, set to include and former British Prime Minister and others.
- A Trump economic development plan to rebuild and energize Gaza will be created by convening a panel of experts who have helped birth some of the thriving modern miracle cities in the Middle East.
- A special economic zone will be established with preferred tariff and access rates to be negotiated with participating countries.
- No one will be forced to leave Gaza, and those who wish to leave will be free to do so and free to return. We will encourage people to stay and offer them the opportunity to build a better Gaza.
- Hamas and other factions agree to not have any role in the governance of Gaza, directly, indirectly, or in any form.
- A guarantee will be provided by regional partners to ensure that Hamas, and the factions, comply with their obligations and that New Gaza poses no threat to its neighbors or its people.
- The United States will work with Arab and international partners to develop a temporary International Stabilization Force (ISF) to immediately deploy in Gaza.
- Israel will not occupy or annex Gaza. As the ISF establishes control and stability, the Israel Defense Forces (IDF) will withdraw.
- In the event Hamas delays or rejects this proposal, the above, including the scaled-up aid operation, will proceed in the terror-free areas handed over from the IDF to the ISF.
- An interfaith dialogue process will be established based on the values of tolerance and peaceful co-existence to try and change mindsets and narratives of Palestinians and Israelis.
- While Gaza re-development advances and when the PA reform program is faithfully carried out, the conditions may finally be in place for a credible pathway to Palestinian self-determination and statehood.
- The United States will establish a dialogue between Israel and the Palestinians to agree on a political horizon for peaceful and prosperous co-existence.
“We were not informed of Trump’s plan before its announcement,” Mardawi added, “and its terms are close to the Israeli vision.”
The document released by the White House states that if all parties agree, “Gaza will be governed under the temporary transitional governance of a technocratic, apolitical Palestinian committee, responsible for delivering the day-to-day running of public services and municipalities for the people in Gaza.”
“This committee will be made up of qualified Palestinians and international experts, with oversight and supervision by a new international transitional body, the ‘Board of Peace,’ which will be headed and chaired by President Donald J. Trump, with other members and heads of State to be announced,” the paper says.

The only potential member Trump announced by name was former British Prime Minister Tony Blair, who released a statement calling the plan “bold and intelligent.”
‘Greatest day in civilization’: Netanyahu and Trump address the press on Gaza peace plan
INN: US President Donald Trump meets Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu in Washington, shares new proposal for ending the Israel-Hamas war.
The President stated that at the request of other countries, he will lead the “Board of Peace” that will oversee peace efforts. Former UK Prime Minister Tony Blair will also be on the board. “The leaders of the Arab world and Israel and everybody involved asked me to do this,” he explained.
He noted that in the meeting, Prime Minister Netanyahu was “very clear about his opposition to a Palestinian state and he mentioned October 7th, and I understand that. I understand and respect his position on many things, but what he’s doing today is so good for Israel.”
Trump also mentioned the anti-war protesters in Israel who often hold signs with his name, quipping: “They like me, for whatever reason, Bibi, I don’t know.”
He complimented the Prime Minister, calling him “a warrior” and saying that “Israel is lucky to have him.”
The President also criticized the countries that “foolishly” recognized a Palestinian state, but explained that they did so because “they’re tired of what’s been going on for so many decades. The Presidents and Prime Ministers, when they deal with the Middle East, talk about the same thing over and over.”
ADVERTISEMENTReviewing the history leading up to the war, he recounted: “The Palestinians elected Hamas. Israel withdrew from Gaza, thinking they would live in peace, remember that? But that didn’t work out; there was the opposite of peace. I never forgot that, because I said, ‘That doesn’t sound like a good deal to me, as a real estate person, they gave up the ocean.’ They gave up the most magnificent piece of land in the Middle East and said all we want to do now is have peace, and that request was not honored.”
“Instead of a better life for the Palestinians, Hamas diverted resources to build over 400 miles of tunnels and terror infrastructure, rocket production facilities, and hid military command posts and launch sites in hospitals, schools, and mosques, so if you went after them, you’d end up knocking out a hospital, school, or a mosque.
“I challenge the Palestinians to take responsibility for their destiny.”
Trump warned that if the Palestinian Authority does not complete the reforms he laid out in 2020, “They’ll have only themselves to blame. We’re giving them an amazing footprint, and they have amazing support from the leaders of the Arab world.”
He claimed that Israel gained respect in the Middle East by the way it fought the war.
The President also referred to the phone call between Prime Minister Netanyahu and Qatari Prime Minister Mohammed al-Thani during which, according to him, the two had a “heart-to-heart conversation.”

Netanyahu agrees to Trump’s Gaza peace plan: ‘Will achieve all our war goals’
Trump and Netanyahu announced a 20-point plan in Washington to end the Gaza war, secure the release of hostages within 72 hours, disarm Hamas and establish a transitional governing body for the Strip
By: Itamar Eichner, Ynet News, Washington|September 29, 2025:
U.S. President Donald Trump and Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu stood side by side at the White House on Monday to announce Israel’s agreement to an American peace plan aimed at ending the 724-day war in Gaza. But it remains uncertain whether Hamas, the only major party not involved in the negotiations, will accept the terms.
Trump laid out a 20-point proposal that he described as a “historic day for peace,” promising an immediate ceasefire and the release of all remaining hostages within 72 hours of Israel’s formal approval. The plan calls for a phased Israeli withdrawal, Hamas’ disarmament, the release of hundreds of Palestinian prisoners, and the establishment of a temporary international governing body for Gaza headed by Trump and including former British Prime Minister Tony Blair.
“This is a big, big day, a beautiful day, potentially one of the biggest days ever in civilization,” Trump said. “Things that have been going on for hundreds of years, and thousands of years, we’re at least very, very close — we’re beyond very close.”
He thanked Netanyahu for “getting in there and doing a job,” and praised Arab and Muslim leaders including those of Saudi Arabia, Qatar, Egypt, Jordan, Turkey, Pakistan and Indonesia for supporting the U.S. framework. “If accepted by Hamas, this proposal calls for the release of all remaining hostages immediately, but in no case more than 72 hours,” Trump said. “The hostages are coming back, and the bodies of young men are coming back immediately. This means the immediate end of the war itself, not just Gaza.”Netanyahu confirmed Israel’s support and linked the deal to his government’s war aims. “The plan will achieve all our objectives,” he said, pledging that Hamas would be stripped of its political control and military capacity. But he warned: “If Hamas rejects your plan, Mr. President, or if they supposedly accept it and then do everything to counter it, then Israel will finish the job by itself. This can be done the easy way or it can be done the hard way, but it will be done.”
Trump added that Arab and Muslim countries were committed to ensuring Hamas’ disarmament. “All terror infrastructure will be destroyed, including tunnels and weapons production facilities,” he said. “Working with the new transitional authority in Gaza, all parties will agree on a timeline for Israeli forces to withdraw, in phases. No more shooting, hopefully.”
At the press conference, Trump repeatedly described Netanyahu as a “fighter” and said Israel had “the full backing” of the United States if Hamas rejects the plan.
Netanyahu apologizes to Qatar
The announcement followed weeks of tensions over a September 9 Israeli strike in Doha that killed a Qatari serviceman but failed to eliminate Hamas leaders gathered in the Gulf state. The strike angered Arab capitals and prompted an unusually sharp rebuke from Washington.
During his White House visit, Netanyahu spoke by phone with Qatari Prime Minister Sheikh Mohammed bin Abdulrahman Al Thani. According to the White House, Netanyahu expressed “deep regret” for violating Qatari sovereignty and promised that Israel would not conduct such an attack again. Trump described the call as a “heart-to-heart” conversation.
