Hamas says it 'needs more time' to respond to Trump's Gaza plan
- Thread starter Almost Heaven
- Start date
Trumps reply:
I appreciate that Israel has temporarily stopped the bombing in order to give the Hostage release and Peace Deal a chance to be completed. Hamas must move quickly, or else all bets will be off. I will not tolerate delay, which many think will happen, or any outcome where Gaza poses a threat again. Let’s get this done, FAST. Everyone will be treated fairly!
Which leads me more and more to think that something on the order of what Bill Salus theorizes has to happen. Whether it's Psalm 89 or the many other interesting prophecies about what happens to Gaza, Edom, Moab Ammon and Syria (Aram which includes Damascus) as well as Lebanon and Elam (western sectors of Iran)
Piece by Piece, Israel will achieve PEACE with her hate filled neighbours. Before Ezek 38

I know what I'm gonna share here is a controversial issue. As it seems so much of gen z is now falling for pro-Palestinian rule in gaza. But delays or reroutes, for me, tend to lean in the direction of maybe PR for global political makeovers? In some sense, if the gen z western world gets a sense of fairness in their perspective, then maybe some larger portions of Israeli social distrust may have waves of healing. I realize what i am saying is somewhat contingent on politics...which sound naive to begin with....lol. But not so much to the point of if something like that works. More to the point of perhaps some mere measure of attempt in intent maybe.

In the last week or so there was an unending train of US tankers flying towards the mideast... that would likely infer that a fleet of fighter/bombers are either on their way or already staged somewhere closer to the mideast. IMO Trump is not blovating when he says: 'gates of hell will open' ... hamas will cease to exist after a "go order" is given. I also think hamas will not capitulate peacefully.
Irans severely damaged nuke facilities might disagree with you.
Trump has always been one who will only use military power as a last resort.
I've been watching reports of that in the news too.

He is a good President and I root for him to continue to do well as any fallen man can do.
He has loved Israel and the Jews since he was a child. What more can we really want in this fallen human race?
Thank God we didn’t end up with Kamala.

We all need to pray that God will strengthen him to do His will
Just to be clear, Israel as of last night and even today is still attacking Hamas with a severe bombing campaign. The deadline has not yet passed.

Speculation in some article I saw this morning is that business in Iran is not done yet.
One thing is sure, we have "wars and rumors of wars" in abundance.
6You will hear of wars and rumors of wars, but see to it that you are not alarmed. Such things must happen, but the end is still to come. 7 Nation will rise against nation, and kingdom against kingdom. There will be famines and earthquakes in various places. 8 All these are the beginning of birth pains.

Israel won’t implement Gaza deal until all hostages returned, Netanyahu vows
Israel has agreed to President Donald Trump’s plan to end the war in Gaza, but will not begin implementing the plan or moving forward with concessions required under the deal until after all 48 of the remaining hostages held in the Gaza Strip are returned, Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu said over the weekend.
On Sunday, Netanyahu addressed a gathering of the Heroes Forum, a lobby group representing families of victims murdered during the October 7th invasion, as well as relatives of fallen IDF soldiers slain in the line of duty in Gaza since October 7th.
During his address to the Heroes Forum, which has taken a more hawkish position than the Hostages and Missing Families Forum, Netanyahu said that Israel had agreed to the Trump plan on the condition that Hamas release all of the hostages before Israel moves to implement any of the other clauses of the agreement.
Israel’s Defense Minister, Israel Katz (Likud), echoed Netanyahu’s comments, vowing to escalate Israeli attacks on Hamas positions in Gaza should the terror group fail to free the hostages.

I continue to pray for 3 leaders every night.
My own Prime Minister of Canada Mark Carney
The leader of Israel Benjamin Netanyahu
The leader of the USA Donald Trump- because his decisions greatly impact both my country, and Israel.
I pray for wisdom, direction and most of all for their salvation- them and their wives and families.
There are 5 Bible passages that direct me to do so:
First of all, then, I urge that supplications, prayers, intercessions, and thanksgivings be made for all people, for kings and all who are in high positions, that we may lead a peaceful and quiet life, godly and dignified in every way. This is good, and it is pleasing in the sight of God our Savior, who desires all people to be saved and to come to the knowledge of the truth.
Let every person be subject to the governing authorities. For there is no authority except from God, and those that exist have been instituted by God.
Do not be anxious about anything, but in everything by prayer and supplication with thanksgiving let your requests be made known unto God.
The king’s heart is a stream of water in the hand of the Lord; he turns it wherever he will.
For in him all things were created: things in heaven and on earth, visible and invisible, whether thrones or powers or rulers or authorities; all things have been created through him and for him. He is before all things, and in him all things hold together.

I'm seeing some signs on the the interweb that preparations for accounting for the hostages to release them may actually be happening. If the hostages get released that'll be a huge win no matter what follows.

This is a development to keep our eyes on. Here’s a little bit of news from X:
“Inside Gaza, it’s not just Hamas.There are around 17 clans, many of them armed, rival, and some possibly collaborating with the IDF.Now they’re killing each other to seize control after the ceasefire.”
&
“More tribes and clans in Gaza are taking up arms to secure the delivery of aid via truck convoys and stand up to Hamas’s infamous “Sahm” or ‘arrow’ unit that is killing, torturing, stealing, and pillaging - in a desperate attempt to keep remnants of Hamas’s regime in power. The problem is that this risks the fragmentation of the Gaza Strip into warring territories that are vying for control and access to humanitarian aid, forestalling the possibility of restoring order in a viable day-after scenario. These militias can be effective if they are under a unified national command, run by the Palestinian Authority with international and Arab supervision and coordination.However, without a common thread that unites these disparate factions and groups, this risks a “Balkanization” scenario for the coastal enclave. Time is of the essence to introduce elements of the Palestinian Authority under an international and Arab mandate, to stop the war, confront Hamas, and unify Palestinians behind a common body/political organ, and prevent lawlessness and chaos.”

If true, that will be amazing to see. One way or the other, it does seem to be that Hamas's days are number. Perhaps their pride won't permit them to see it that way even though so much of their leadership has been destroyed.
