Trump’s Gaza deal: A masterful stroke that sidesteps inconvenient truths
Israel’s foes, and even those currently backing the plan, remain ultimately bound to Islamic ideology, just as the West does to an entrenched antisemitism.

Palestinians driven by a violent religious ideology aren't going to change their ways because Trump offers them money.
President Donald Trump’s Gaza plan and the way he garnered support for and presented it looks on the surface like a masterful stroke. Countries that until now tacitly backed Hamas in its war against Israel are now lined up insisting that the terror group accept the terms of a proposal that effectively means its defeat.
It would seem that Trump has Hamas in checkmate. It either accepts the deal and loses the war, or it dithers, if not outright rejects the proposal, and is labeled the unequivocal obstacle to ending the conflict.
Hamas terrorists accompanied by children celebrate in the streets of Gaza.
But we’ve seen this movie before. Or something like it.
Previous agreements that were supposed to be win-win for Israel somehow always turned out to be catastrophic mistakes.
Two glaring examples are the signing of the “Oslo Accords”–when Israel agreed to recognize and treat with the world’s premier terrorist organization, the PLO–and the 2005 Gaza Disengagement–when Israel unilaterally gave the Palestinians everything they demanded in Gaza.
