The White House has unveiled a sweeping proposal to end nearly two years of war in Gaza. Backed by Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu after talks with President Donald Trump, the plan demands Hamas dismantle its military infrastructure and hand over its weapons. In return, Palestinians would receive humanitarian relief, reconstruction aid, and a fragile promise of peace. Yet the question looms: will Hamas accept conditions that amount to surrender, or risk an even harsher Israeli campaign?<\/p>\n

Trump and Netanyahu agree on \u201cBoard of Peace\u201d<\/strong><\/h2>\n

According to the proposal, Gaza would come under the supervision of an international security force. Day-to-day governance would be handled by a technocratic administration, overseen by a \u201cBoard of Peace\u201d chaired by Trump<\/a> and former British Prime Minister Tony Blair. The Palestinian Authority could eventually take over Gaza \u2014 but only if it completes deep internal reforms.<\/p>\n

Tough terms for Hamas<\/strong><\/h2>\n

The plan requires Hamas to disarm, dismantle its tunnel networks, and abandon all military infrastructure. In exchange, Israel would release 250 prisoners serving life terms and 1,700 detainees taken from Gaza since the war began, including all women and children. Hamas would have to release 48 hostages within 72 hours. Israeli forces would withdraw gradually as the international security force deploys, though Israel would keep a \u201csecurity perimeter\u201d inside Gaza.<\/p>\n

Aid and reconstruction at the core<\/strong><\/h3>\n

A major element of the plan is a large-scale influx of humanitarian aid, coordinated by neutral bodies such as the UN and Red Crescent. An international fund would finance Gaza\u2019s reconstruction, with guarantees that Palestinians would not be expelled from their territory. For a population devastated by years of war, the promise of rebuilding offers hope \u2014 but it comes at the cost of Hamas\u2019 role in governance.<\/p>\n

Palestinian statehood left vague<\/strong><\/h3>\n

The proposal makes only a distant nod to Palestinian statehood. It suggests that if the Palestinian Authority reforms and Gaza is rebuilt, conditions \u201cmay finally be in place\u201d for self-determination. Netanyahu and his right-wing allies strongly oppose statehood, and many analysts believe the prime minister accepted the plan knowing those provisions may never materialize.<\/p>\n

Regional support, domestic divisions<\/strong><\/h3>\n

Governments in Egypt, Jordan, Turkey, Qatar, Saudi Arabia, the UAE, and Pakistan issued a joint statement praising Trump\u2019s initiative. But inside Israel, Netanyahu faces pushback. Finance Minister Bezalel Smotrich declared his \u201cred lines,\u201d rejecting any role for the Palestinian Authority in Gaza and ruling out the creation of a Palestinian state. Such opposition could test Netanyahu\u2019s fragile coalition even as he aligns himself closely with Trump\u2019s vision.
