The White House released a plan on Monday that could establish “eternal peace in the Middle East” by ending the war in Gaza and creating a pathway for Palestinian statehood. The plan contains 20 points, one less than an initial framework proposed by the United States and passed around by diplomats and world leaders. President Donald Trump announced the plan on Monday in a White House event alongside Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu. The 20-point plan begins with the plan for Gaza in the days following the war and ends with the hope for future Israeli-Palestinian relations. “Gaza will be a deradicalized terror-free zone that does not pose a threat to its neighbors. Gaza will be redeveloped for the benefit of the people of Gaza, who have suffered more than enough,” the first two points of the plan state. “The United States will establish a dialogue between Israel and the Palestinians to agree on a political horizon for peaceful and prosperous co-existence,” the plan concludes. In between are 17 points largely outlining the steps to begin transitioning Gaza from a warzone to a self-governing entity, starting with a ceasefire once both Hamas and Israel agree to the framework. Once both sides agree, aid will begin to flow into the strip, including rebuilding hospitals, bakeries, roads, and other key pieces of infrastructure. The Israeli military will cease its advance through Gaza City and withdraw to a predetermined line while Hamas must return all hostages, living and dead, to Israel within 72 hours. In return, Israel “will release 250 life sentence prisoners plus 1700 Gazans who were detained after October 7th 2023, including all women and children detained in that context. For every Israeli hostage whose remains are released, Israel will release the remains of 15 deceased Gazans,” the proposal says. The hostage exchange, while massively biased in favor of Hamas and Gaza, is not out of step with past prisoner swaps Israel has struck with Palestinians.

Under the ceasefire agreement, Gaza will be administered by “qualified Palestinians and international experts” under oversight from the “Board of Peace,” an international body chaired by the United States president. “No one will be forced to leave Gaza, and those who wish to leave will be free to do so and free to return. We will encourage people to stay and offer them the opportunity to build a better Gaza,” point 12 states. No terror group may be involved in administering Gaza. All of Hamas’ terror infrastructure, including its vast web of tunnels and weapons facilities, will be destroyed alongside the military sites of all other terror groups operating within the Gaza Strip. Israel will agree to neither occupy nor annex Gaza. “New Gaza poses no threat to its neighbors or its people,” the framework says. Toward that end, an “interfaith dialogue process will be established based on the values of tolerance and peaceful co-existence to try and change mindsets and narratives of Palestinians and Israelis by emphasizing the benefits that can be derived from peace.” President Donald J.

A group of Arab states on Monday publicly backed President Donald Trump’s plan to end the war in Gaza and create a pathway for a Palestinian state. The governments of Qatar, Jordan, the United Arab Emirates, Indonesia, Pakistan, Turkey, Saudi Arabia, and Egypt released a joint statement on Monday backing the plan after Trump rolled it out in a White House event alongside Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu. The joint statement of the Arab states was signed by the foreign minister of each. The Arab states “welcome President Donald J Trump’s leadership and his sincere efforts to end the war in Gaza, and assert their confidence in his ability to find a path to peace,” the joint statement said. “The ministers welcome the announcement by President Trump regarding his proposal to end the war, rebuild Gaza, prevent the displacement of the Palestinian people and advance a comprehensive peace, as well as his announcement that he will not allow the annexation of the West Bank,” the statement continued. “The ministers affirm their readiness to engage positively and constructively with the United States and the parties toward finalizing the agreement and ensuring its implementation, in a manner that ensures peace, security, and stability for the peoples of the region,” it said.

Under the terms of the agreement, the terror group, and others like it, would be demilitarized, dismantled, and blocked from having administrative control over the Gaza Strip. “If Hamas rejects the deal, which is always possible – they’re the only one left, everyone else has accepted it – but I have a feeling we’re going to have a positive answer. But if not, you know, Bibi, you’d have our full backing to do what you have to do,” said Trump. Netanyahu echoed Trump’s threat in remarks following the U.S. president. “If Hamas rejects your plan, Mr. President, or if they supposedly accept it, and then, basically, do everything to counter it, then Israel will finish the job by itself. This can be done the easy way, or it can be done the hard way. But it will be done,” the prime minister said.
