Netanyahu expecting to make ‘painful and significant’ concessions under Trump’s ceasefire plan: report
NY Post, Sep 27, 2025

Israel will have to make “painful and significant” concessions under the US plan to end the war in Gaza.

The givebacks will run contrary to several recent  policy positions by the Jewish State — especially a role for the Palestinian Authority in the postwar plan, Israeli television’s Channel 12 reported Saturday.

Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu has repeatedly rejected any role for the Palestinian Authority, insisting that Israel should retain control over the Strip after the war.

President Trump’s latest plan calls for the gradual expansion of the Palestinian Authority’s governing power, after a transition period where an international body will look over the enclave.

The Palestinian Authority, created in 1994 under the Oslo Accords and currently led by Mahmoud Abbas, is a Western and internationally recognized governing body that currently only has limited authority in parts of the West Bank.

All 21 facets of President Trump’s Gaza peace plan were revealed Saturday by the Times of Israel. The plan paves the pathway to possible Palestinian statehood but stipulates Hamas cannot be part of any governing structure.

The suggested transitional government would provide day-to-day services under the supervision of a new international body, until the Palestinian Authority has completed a reform program.

Former British Prime Minister Tony Blair’s name has been floated as interim administrator of the transitional government.

Israeli Defense Forces would gradually withdraw from Gaza, according to the Times of Israel, which saw a copy of the full plan.

Critically, anyone who wants to return to Gaza after leaving will be allowed to do so, marking a shift from February, when Trump talked about having the Palestinians temporarily relocated.

Trump presented the plan to allies Tuesday at the United Nations, but its full scope has not been fully presented to Hamas yet.

Revealed: US 21-point plan for ending Gaza war, creating pathway to Palestinian state
Times of Israel, Sep 27, 2025

NEW YORK — The US proposal for ending the war in Gaza encourages Palestinians to remain in the Strip and provides for the creation of a pathway to a future Palestinian state, according to a copy of the plan obtained by The Times of Israel.

The 21-point document shared by the US with a handful of Arab and Muslim countries earlier this week on the United Nations General Assembly sidelines also contains clauses that have been staples in various proposals crafted by different stakeholders in recent months — from the release of all hostages to Hamas’s removal from power.

But the decision to explicitly encourage Palestinians to remain in Gaza caps off a major evolution for Washington on the issue, given that US President Donald Trump in February shocked much of the world with talk of the US taking over Gaza and permanently relocating its entire population of roughly two million people.

Those remarks gave significant tailwind to the idea among Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu’s far-right coalition partners and even among more moderate Israeli political figures who have since worked actively to “encourage the voluntary migration” of Gazans, albeit with no success to date.

Moreover, the proposal’s envisioning of a potential pathway to a future Palestinian state, after Gaza’s redevelopment has advanced and the Palestinian Authority’s reform has been completed, also appears to be a major departure from the Trump administration’s policy to date,

[..…]

What are the 21 points?

The following are the contents of the plan, which have been paraphrased at the request of the sources who provided it.

1. Gaza will be a de-radicalized, terror-free zone that does not pose a threat to its neighbors.

2. Gaza will be redeveloped for the benefit of its people.

3. If Israel and Hamas agree to the proposal, the war will immediately end, with the IDF halting all operations and gradually withdrawing from the Strip.

4. Within 48 hours of Israel publicly accepting the deal, all living and deceased hostages will be returned.

5. Once the hostages are returned, Israel will free several hundred Palestinian security prisoners serving life sentences and over 1,000 Gazans arrested since the start of the war, along with the bodies of several hundred Palestinians.

6. Once the hostages are returned, Hamas members who commit to peaceful coexistence will be granted amnesty, while members who wish to leave the Strip will be granted safe passage to receiving countries.

7. Once this agreement is reached, aid will surge into the Strip at rates no lower than the benchmarks set in the January 2025 hostage deal, which included 600 trucks of aid per day, along with the rehabilitation of critical infrastructure and the entry of equipment for removing rubble.

8. Aid will be distributed — without interference from either side — by the United Nations and the Red Crescent, along with other international organizations not associated with either Israel or Hamas.

9. Gaza will be administered by a temporary, transitional government of Palestinian technocrats who will be responsible for providing day-to-day services for the people of the Strip. The committee will be supervised by a new international body established by the US in consultation with Arab and European partners. It will establish a framework for funding the redevelopment of Gaza until the Palestinian Authority has completed its reform program.

10. An economic plan will be created to rebuild Gaza through the convening of experts with experience in constructing modern Middle East cities and through the consideration of existing plans aimed at attracting investments and creating jobs.

11. An economic zone will be established, with reduced tariffs and access rates to be negotiated by participating countries.

[Right_in_Virginia]

What are the 21 points? (continued)

12. No one will be forced to leave Gaza, but those who choose to leave will be allowed to return. Moreover, Gazans will be encouraged to remain in the Strip and offered an opportunity to build a better future there.

13. Hamas will have no role in Gaza’s governance whatsoever. There will be a commitment to destroy and stop building any offensive military infrastructure, including tunnels. Gaza’s new leaders will commit to peaceful coexistence with their neighbors.

14. A security guarantee will be provided by regional partners to ensure that Hamas and other Gaza factions comply with their obligations and that Gaza ceases to pose a threat to Israel or its own people.

15. The US will work with Arab and other international partners to develop a temporary international stabilization force that will immediately deploy in Gaza to oversee security in the Strip. The force will develop and train a Palestinian police force, which will serve as a long-term internal security body.

16. Israel will not occupy or annex Gaza, and the IDF will gradually hand over territory it currently occupies, as the replacement security forces establish control and stability in the Strip.

17. If Hamas delays or rejects this proposal, the above points will proceed in terror-free areas, which the IDF will gradually hand over to the international stabilization force.

18. Israel agrees not to carry out future strikes in Qatar. The US and the international community acknowledge Doha’s important mediating role in the Gaza conflict.

19. A process will be established to de-radicalize the population. This will include an interfaith dialogue aimed at changing mindsets and narratives in Israel and Gaza.

20. When Gaza’s redevelopment has been advanced and the PA reform program has been implemented, the conditions may be in place for a credible pathway to Palestinian statehood, which is recognized as the aspiration of the Palestinian people.

21. The US will establish a dialogue between Israel and the Palestinians to agree on a political horizon for peaceful coexistence.

Trump envoys pressing Netanyahu in New York to reach ceasefire deal - KAN
The message was reportedly delivered during a meeting in New York on Thursday, and the envoys were quoted as saying, “Mr. President thinks it is time to push to end the war. Bibi, it’s time.”
Jerusalem Post, Sep 26, 2025

US envoys Steve Witkoff and Jared Kushner told Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu that President Donald Trump wants to move toward ending the Gaza war.

This comes as Netanyahu is set to meet with Trump on Monday.

The message was reportedly delivered during a meeting in New York on Thursday, and the envoys were quoted as saying, “Mr. President thinks it is time to push to end the war. Bibi, it’s time,” according to KAN News.

The envoys arrived to discuss changes Netanyahu sought in a new plan to end the war, according to KAN News’ report. Netanyahu and Strategic Affairs Minister Ron Dermer expressed firm objections to several clauses during calls with Trump’s associates, the report said.

Their goal was to reach a broad understanding before the planned Netanyahu-Trump meeting on Monday, Kan News reported. An Israeli official told the outlet there is a “very low” likelihood that fighting would resume after a ceasefire.

Netanyahu’s office was cited as saying any framework must include the total dismantling of Hamas, and that Israel would not compromise on this point.

According to the report, the plan under discussion includes a rapid release of all hostages, a permanent ceasefire, and a gradual Israeli withdrawal from the Gaza Strip.

Additional elements reportedly include the end of Hamas rule, demilitarization of Gaza with possible amnesty for senior Hamas members who leave the Gaza Strip, deployment of an Arab security force, limited Palestinian Authority involvement in civil governance, a United States guarantee that Israel will not annex West Bank territory, and a joint reconstruction fund with Saudi Arabia, the United Arab Emirates, and the United States.

Editorial | Only Trump Can Put an End to the Gaza War
Haaretz, Sep 28, 2025

Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu's speech at the UN General Assembly on Friday was a tiresome, sensational show put on before an empty auditorium. Instead of choosing to present a path for ending the war, returning the hostages and withdrawing from Gaza, as well as presenting a vision for solving Israel's conflict with the Palestinians – as almost all world leaders did last week – the prime minister chose a closed circuit of manipulations and accusations.

Thus, he was not only isolating Israel from the world, but also its citizens from themselves: from the clear-headed understanding of his direct responsibility for Israel's deteriorating standing, resilience and security.

One cannot demand the world focus on the horrific sights of October 7 while ignoring the sights of what Israel is doing in Gaza – which the world, as distinct from Israelis, has been exposed to for two years. Particularly not while Israel itself is depicting Gazan civilians as victims who serve as human shields for Hamas.

It's no coincidence the families of the hostages are blaming Netanyahu for the ongoing abandonment – and now sacrifice – of their loved ones. They realize Netanyahu has torpedoed deals and intensified the war only to perpetuate it, and that saving the hostages has changed from being an objective of this war to a cynical pretext for continuing it.

Einav Zangauker, a mother of one of the hostages, again managed to frame the sense of shock: "while my Matan is being tortured in Gaza, Netanyahu is exploiting him at the UN."

On this backdrop, one must congratulate U.S. President Donald Trump for presenting a new initiative, the 21-point plan. According to reports, this initiative includes the immediate release of all the hostages, alive and dead, Israel's gradual withdrawal from the Gaza Strip, an end to Hamas' rule and transferring Gaza's management to an international-Arab entity in cooperation with the Palestinian Authority.

The plan ensures unlimited humanitarian aid, the reconstruction of the Gaza Strip with financing by the international community, and mainly, an end to a pointless war.

Trump has already told Netanyahu that there would be no annexing the West Bank, a statement that was necessary and will serve to rein in the messianic visions of Israel's right wing, which views October 7 not as a catastrophe but as an opportunity. However, it's not enough.

Trump must understand that Netanyahu doesn't plan on stopping the war. The choice is clear now. In contrast to an unnecessary speech at the UN, which mainly served as an opening to an election campaign, there is a practical plan which is also supported by Arab leaders. Israel must say in a clear voice: yes to a hostage deal, yes to ending the war, and yes to the "day after" arrangement in Gaza.

Trump and Netanyahu will face each other on Monday. The responsibility now lies with the U.S. president: he must insist, as he knows how to, and finally bring a deal that will release the hostages and end the bloodbath.

From diplomacy to soccer, Israel is becoming a pariah on the global stage
CNN, Sep 28, 2025

Israel is becoming increasingly isolated on the world stage as the war and humanitarian crisis in Gaza continue, with the backlash seeping into economic, cultural and sporting arenas.

International condemnation has soared since Israel announced a ground assault on Gaza City and conducted an unprecedented strike against Hamas leadership on Qatari soil. It also comes as an independent UN inquiry concluded for the first time last week that Israel had committed genocide against Palestinians in Gaza, a finding that echoes those of other genocide experts and human rights groups, but which the Israeli government has rejected.

Last week, the European Union – Israel’s biggest trading partner – proposed sanctions that would partially suspend its free trade agreement with Israel, if approved by EU member states. Several Western nations have already implemented targeted sanctions against certain Israeli individuals, settler outposts and organizations supporting violence in the occupied West Bank.

The global outcry is hitting Israel’s economy in other ways as well.

In August, Norway’s sovereign wealth fund, the world’s largest, announced it was divesting parts of its portfolio in Israel due to the worsening humanitarian crisis in Gaza.

Israel also faces partial or complete arms embargoes from France, Italy, the Netherlands, Spain, the United Kingdom and others over its conduct in Gaza.

The backlash has been so stark that Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu himself acknowledged it earlier this month, warning that Israel is facing a “kind of isolation” that could last for years, adding that the country has no choice but to stand on its own.

Netanyahu said Israel would need to further develop its weapons industry and adapt its economy to become less reliant on external trade. He later downplayed those comments, saying he was talking only about the defense industry.

As the war escalates, Israel is also taking hits in the entertainment and culture sphere.

Netanyahu's jet largely avoids European airspace in unusual route to New York
ABC News, Sep 25, 2025

Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu's government jet flew an unusual route from Tel Aviv to New York Thursday, largely avoiding European airspace.

Netanyahu, traveling to the United Nations General Assembly, briefly flew over Greece and Italy, but then took a circuitous route across the Mediterranean, directly over the strait of Gibraltar and then across the Atlantic, according to FlightRadar24 records viewed by ABC News. The unusual route added more than two hours to the prime minister's flight time, the records show.

In previous U.S. trips, Netanyahu's jet has flown over Greece, a large swath of Italy, before crossing the entire length of France.

Italy, France and Greece are all members of the International Criminal Court which has issued an arrest warrant for Netanyahu for alleged war crimes in Gaza. Netanyahu has rejected the ICC's arrest warrant and said the actions and charges are "absurd and false."

FlightRadar24 records show the prime minister's plane routinely flying over European airspace in the last year. Israeli media reports this is the first time Netanyahu has avoided European airspace since the ICC war crimes arrest warrant was issued in 2024.

The prime minister's office did not immediately respond to ABC News' request for comment.

About two-thirds of the public support a deal that would include the release of all the hostages in exchange for the cessation of hostilities and the withdrawal of the IDF from all of the Gaza Strip. A majority of Jewish and Arab Israelis oppose Jewish settlement in Gaza. Around one-third of the general public think that Israeli society will be able to bear the burden of prolonged fighting for only a few more months.

Here is Hamas:

The Covenant of the Islamic Resistance Movement - Hamas

In the name of Allah the Merciful and the Compassionate
Palestine, Muharram 1, 1409 A.H./August 18, 1988

In the name of Allah the Merciful and the Compassionate

"You are the best nation that has been brought out for mankind. You command good and forbid evil and believe in Allah. If only the people of the Book [i.e., Jews and Christians] had believed, it would have been well for them. Some of them believe, but most of them are iniquitous. They will never be able to do you serious harm, they will only be an annoyance. If they fight you, they will turn their backs and flee, and will not be succored. Humiliation is their lot wherever they may be, except where they are saved from it by a bond with Allah or by a bond with men. They incurred upon themselves Allah's wrath, and wretchedness is their lot, because they denied Allah's signs and wrongfully killed the prophets, and because they disobeyed and transgressed." (Koran, 3:110-112).

"Israel will exist, and will continue to exist, until Islam abolishes it, as it abolished that which was before it." [From the words of] The martyr, Imam Hasan al-Banna', Allah's mercy be upon him. [2]

"The Islamic world is burning, and each and every one of us must pour water, even if it be a little, to extinguish whatever he can extinguish, without waiting for others." [From the words of] Sheikh Amjad Al-Zahawi, Allah's mercy be upon him. [3]

In the name of Allah the Merciful and the Compassionate

Preamble

Praise be to Allah. We seek help from Him, we ask forgiveness from Him, we ask Him for guidance, and we rely on Him. Prayer and peace be upon Allah's messenger and upon his family and companions, and those who are loyal to him and spread his message and follow his sunna [the Prophet's custom]. Prayer and peace be forever upon them as long as heaven and earth exist.

Oh people, from the midst of great troubles and in the depths of suffering, and from the beating of believing hearts and arms purified for worship, out of cognizance of duty and in response to Allah's command - thence came the call [of our movement] and the meeting and joining [of forces], and thence came education in accordance with Allah's way and a resolute will to carry out [the movement's] role in life, overcoming all of the obstacles and surmounting the difficulties of the journey. Thence came also continuous preparation, [along with] readiness to sacrifice one's life and all that is valuable for the sake of Allah.

Then the seed took form and [the movement] began to move forward through this stormy sea of wishes and hopes, yearnings and aspirations, dangers and obstacles, pains and challenges, both locally [in Palestine] and abroad.

When the idea ripened, and the seed grew, and the plant shot its roots into the ground of reality, away from fleeting emotions and improper hastiness, then the Islamic Resistance Movement [Hamas] [4] set out to play its role, marching onward for the sake of Allah. [In doing this, Hamas] joins arms with all those who wage jihad for the liberation of Palestine. [5] The souls of its jihad fighters meet the souls of all those jihad fighters who sacrificed their lives for the land of Palestine, from the time when the Prophet's companions conquered it until the present.

The covenant of the Islamic Resistance Movement (Hamas) reveals its face, presents its identity, clarifies its stand, makes clear its aspiration, discusses its hopes, and calls out to help it and support it and to join its ranks, because our fight with the Jews is very extensive and very grave, and it requires all the sincere efforts. It is a step that must be followed by further steps; it is a brigade that must be reinforced by brigades upon brigades from this vast Islamic world, until the enemies are defeated and Allah's victory is revealed.

This is how we see them coming on the horizon: "And after a time you will come to know about it."(Koran, 38:88)

"Allah has written: It is I and My messengers who will surely prevail. Allah is Strong and Mighty." (Koran, 58:21)

"Say: This is my way. I call on Allah with certainty, I and those who follow me, and glory be to Allah, I am not among the polytheists." (Koran, 12:108)

Exclusive: Trump says Gaza peace deal in "final stages"
Axios, Sep 28, 2025

President Trump told Axios in an interview Sunday that negotiations over his plan to end the war in Gaza are "at their final stages" and contended a deal could open the way for wider peace in the Middle East.

Why it matters: This is the most significant effort to date to end the war.

*. More than 66,000 Palestinians have been killed since the Oct. 7, 2023, attacks on Israel, according to the Hamas-controlled Gaza health ministry.

What he's saying: "Everybody has come together to get a deal, but we still have to get it done," Trump told Axios.

*. "The Arab countries were fantastic to work with on this. Hamas is coming with them. They have great respect for the Arab world," Trump said. "The Arab world wants peace, Israel wants peace and Bibi wants peace."

*. Trump said his plan aims at more than just ending the war in Gaza. He said the goal is to resume a wider push for peace in the region.

*. "If we get this done, it will be a great day for Israel and for the Middle East. It will be the first chance for real peace in the Middle East. But we have to get it done first," Trump said.

Didn't the PA officially recognize the State of Israel in 1993

Haniyeh: PA Arabs Won't Recognize Israel

Elad Benari  |  Jun 26, 2013  |  6:16 AM (GMT+3)

Hamas’s Prime Minister Ismail Haniyeh said on Tuesday that Palestinian Authority Arabs would never recognize Israel.

"We had two wars in which hundreds of people died, and thousands of acres of land were destroyed, but Palestinians did not and will not recognize Israel," the Gaza premier said as he welcomed international activists to the enclave, reported the Ma’an news agency.

Haniyeh said Israel's “blockade” on Gaza aimed to limit the influence of the Islamic model outside Gaza and to isolate “Palestine” in an attempt to force PA Arabs to recognize Israel and accept the conditions of the Mideast Quartet.

The premier thanked activists who came to Gaza, describing solidarity visits as a holy duty and urging more supporters to come.

Haniyeh said aid groups who visited Gaza in solidarity had a political and a humanitarian message, showing that Gaza did not stand alone.

"These groups, along with the help of God and the Palestinian steadfastness, eased the siege," he added, according to Ma’an.

Haniyeh highlighted his government's efforts to generate support for Jerusalem, claiming that “the occupation built a hundred synagogues around al-Aqsa to deceive the world and falsify facts.”  .  .

Twenty days after the failed assassination attempt of senior Hamas officials in Doha, the prime minister apologized to the Qataris. During his meeting with U.S. President Donald Trump, and with Trump’s mediation, Netanyahu apologized in a phone call from the White House to Qatari Prime Minister Mohammed al-Thani.

Netanyahu’s apology, made at Trump’s request, was for violating Qatar’s sovereignty. It followed an earlier U.S. statement that Israel had committed not to carry out further operations in Qatar. A Qatari delegation is in Washington after earlier talks at the White House and is expected to coordinate the hostage deal.

Doha has not issued any official statements, though Qatar is demanding, among other things, that Israel pay compensation to the family of a Qatari security officer killed in the strike.

On Sept. 9, the IDF carried out an airstrike in Doha, Qatar’s capital, targeting senior Hamas officials. The army and the Shin Bet security service later announced in a joint statement that the air force had “struck the top leadership of the terrorist organization.” Qatar harshly condemned the strike, calling it “a cowardly act and a blatant violation of international law.”

Not at all.  One doesn't need to waste any more time trying to kill all of Hamas.

Killing all of Hamas is never a waste of time.

The 21 point proposal is the blueprint to begin a secure and prosperous new chapter in the ME. 

Points 3, 6, 8, 13, 14, & 17 are unobtainable as long as Hamas continues to exist.

For Gazans, their desire to kill Jews supersedes their desire for the revitalization of Gaza.  You could offer them houses, jobs, and prosperity, yet they would still want Israel gone.
