Former US President Donald Trump has made the most aggressive statement ever regarding the Palestinian terrorist organization Hamas. Trump has made it clear that negotiations and diplomacy will not do anything. Israel has free rein to intensify its military operations against Hamas in the Gaza Strip as much as it wants. In fact, Hamas recently rejected a US-backed peace plan. Through this proposal, the US tried to end the conflict in the Gaza Strip and ensure the safe release of the hostages. But Hamas refused to accept any terms. Trump told reporters before leaving for Scotland, “Hamas is not interested in a peace deal. Their only motive is violence. I think these people want to die. Now the clear message to Israel is fight and destroy them.”
The shock of the American negotiating team
is also significant that the US had deployed a special team under the leadership of Steve Witkoff for a ceasefire in the Middle East. This party was trying to restore peace in the Gaza Strip by negotiating with Hamas. But now Witkoff has publicly said that the US is withdrawing from this plan and will now consider other options.
The situation in Gaza is getting worse.
The situation in the Gaza Strip is very serious at the moment. Thousands of people are starving due to constant bombings, sieges and lack of aid. According to local reports, malnutrition among children is increasing rapidly. Despite this, America has indicated that it will give all possible help to Israel’s military operations. Trump said that there is no scope left for diplomacy. America has given complete freedom to Israel to completely destroy the bases of Hamas in the Gaza Strip.
Despite Trump’s targeting of the hostage crisis,
many foreign and Israeli citizens are still being held hostage in Gaza. Trump spoke to Israeli Prime Minister Netanyahu and said clearly that there should be no more delay. The Israeli Prime Minister’s Office also issued a statement saying that Hamas has become the biggest obstacle in the hostage agreement. “We are exploring new options together with our American friends to end Hamas’s reign of terror and bring back our hostages,” Netanyahu said.
What did Netanyahu say?
Prime Minister Netanyahu has also made it clear that the only way is to eliminate Hamas. He said that Israel will completely destroy the network of terrorists in Gaza so that peace can be established in the area in the future.
Where did the new riot start?
On October 7, 2023, Hamas launched a major attack in southern Israel, and since then fierce conflict has continued in the Gaza Strip. In response to this attack, Israel launched a military campaign on Gaza, in which thousands of people have been killed and the situation is continuously deteriorating. Now the US has clearly indicated that if Hamas does not lay down its weapons, Israel will be given free rein on all fronts.
