Despite its potentially historic nature, the rushed Gaza deal signed in Egypt on Thursday leaves a host of unresolved issues that could still trip up implementation. https://www.japantimes.co.jp/news/2025/10/10/world/politics/gaza-deal-tough-questions/?utm_medium=Social&utm_source=mastodon #worldnews #politics #middleeast #israel #gaza #israelhamaswar #palestinians #hamas #us #donaldtrump #benjaminnetanyahu
Israel has begun implementing a ceasefire deal in Gaza, after it reached an agreement with Hamas for the Palestinian militant group to release all the hostages it holds. https://www.japantimes.co.jp/news/2025/10/10/world/politics/gaza-ceasefire-hostage-deal/?utm_medium=Social&utm_source=mastodon #worldnews #politics #middleeast #israel #gaza #israelhamaswar #palestinians #hamas #us #donaldtrump #benjaminnetanyahu
Seeking an unlikely Nobel Peace Prize and keen to bolster his legacy, Trump's approach to Gaza has been different to the blank check he has previously been regarded as giving key ally Israel. https://www.japantimes.co.jp/news/2025/10/09/world/politics/how-trump-gaza-deal/?utm_medium=Social&utm_source=mastodon #worldnews #politics #middleeast #israel #gaza #israelhamaswar #palestinians #hamas #benjaminnetanyahu #us #donaldtrump
Israel and Hamas have signed off on the first phase of the U.S.-proposed Gaza deal, Donald Trump announced on Wednesday. https://www.japantimes.co.jp/news/2025/10/09/world/politics/trump-israel-hamas-gaza-deal/?utm_medium=Social&utm_source=mastodon #worldnews #politics #middleeast #israel #gaza #israelhamaswar #palestinians #hamas #us #donaldtrump

#Israel & #Hamas say they have agreed to the “first phase” of a peace plan to pause fighting & release at least some hostages & prisoners, #Trump claimed Wednesday.
“This means that ALL of the Hostages will be released very soon, & Israel will withdraw their Troops to an agreed upon line as the first steps toward a Strong, Durable, & Everlasting Peace,” Trump wrote with weird capital letters. “All Parties will be treated fairly!”
We will see.

Every outlet is reporting this as truth.
I for one am not holding my breath.
#TrumptyDumpty claims to have ended 8 wars.
To be clear, I do hope that I am wrong.

Hamas is looking to secure a "fair hostage exchange” as part of a deal with Israel to end the two-year war that’s devastated Gaza and destabilized much of the Middle East. https://www.japantimes.co.jp/news/2025/10/08/world/politics/hamas-israel-talks-hostages/?utm_medium=Social&utm_source=mastodon #worldnews #politics #middleeast #israel #gaza #israelhamaswar #palestinians #hamas #benjaminnetanyahu
Israel is marking the second anniversary of the Oct. 7, 2023, attack as Hamas and Israeli negotiators hold indirect talks to end the two-year war in the Gaza Strip under a U.S.-proposed peace plan. https://www.japantimes.co.jp/news/2025/10/07/world/society/israel-october-7-anniversary/?utm_medium=Social&utm_source=mastodon #worldnews #society #middleeast #israel #gaza #israelhamaswar #palestinians #hamas #benjaminnetanyahu
Delegations from Israel and Hamas have begun indirect negotiations in Egypt on U.S. President Donald Trump's plan to halt the war in Gaza. https://www.japantimes.co.jp/news/2025/10/07/world/politics/gaza-talks-sticking-points-israel-hamas/?utm_medium=Social&utm_source=mastodon #worldnews #politics #middleeast #israel #gaza #israelhamaswar #palestinians #hamas #benjaminnetanyahu #egypt #us #donaldtrump
Hamas on Sunday called for a swift start to a hostage-prisoner exchange with Israel, as negotiators from both sides headed to Egypt for crucial talks aimed at ending the nearly two-year war in Gaza. https://www.japantimes.co.jp/news/2025/10/06/world/hamas-israel-gaza-talks/?utm_medium=Social&utm_source=mastodon #worldnews #israel #hamas #israelhamaswar #middleeast #benjaminnetanyahu #gaza #palestinians #donaldtrump #us
Huge numbers turned out at pro-Palestinian rallies in Europe on Saturday, calling for an immediate end to the war in Gaza and the release of activists on board a flotilla carrying humanitarian aid. https://www.japantimes.co.jp/news/2025/10/05/world/europe-palestinian-marches/?utm_medium=Social&utm_source=mastodon #worldnews #europe #eu #palestinians #middleeast #israelhamaswar #israel #hamas #gaza
Israel killed dozens in Israeli strikes on Gaza on Saturday, despite U.S. President Donald Trump demand that Israel stop bombing after Hamas declared it was ready to free hostages under his plan to end the war. https://www.japantimes.co.jp/news/2025/10/05/world/politics/gaza-trump-israel-bombing/?utm_medium=Social&utm_source=mastodon #worldnews #politics #israel #hamas #israelhamaswar #middleeast #donaldtrump #us #gaza #benjaminnetanyahu

Hamas' response to the Trump deal is not a qualified yes, but a diplomatic no.
I see news media say it's a 'yes, but', because Hamas agrees to release the hostages.
Yet, Trump and Israel don't care about those hostages. They care about control of the land.
Hamas in their reaction make clear that they're not considering giving up Palestinian sovereignty. #Hamas even make it clear they see a role for themselves in setting up a future government in #Gaza. Exactly what Trump and Israel don't want.
I don't think the reaction should be read as an agreement, though it is a concession. It's diplomatically daring, because it's simply ignoring Trump's wagging finger, and instead proposing more talks.

#Hamas said Friday that it has accepted some elements of Trump’s *plan* to end the war in the #Gaza Strip, including giving up #power & releasing all remaining #hostages, but that others require futher consultations among #Palestinians.
The statement came hours after #Trump said that Hamas must agree to the deal by Sunday evening, threatening an even greater military onslaught nearly 2 years into the war sparked by the Oct. 7 attack into #Israel.

Israel's military has intercepted almost all of about 40 boats in a flotilla carrying aid to the Gaza Strip and taken captive more than 450 foreign activists, sparking international condemnation. https://www.japantimes.co.jp/news/2025/10/03/world/politics/israel-boat-intercept-protests/?utm_medium=Social&utm_source=mastodon #worldnews #politics #israelhamaswar #israel #hamas #aid #gaza #palestinians
Der wdr berichtet, es habe wegen der #Hamas Terroristen womöglich auch eine Durchsuchung in Oberhausen gegeben.

Ich hoffe, die Bundesanwaltschaft klärt uns schnell wegen des geplantent Attentats auf, @tagesschau
Mich interessieren die Waffen, Die AK-47 und insbesondere die Herkunft der „Glock Pistole“.
