Donald Trump has said Hamas must accept a peace plan by Sunday or face "hell."
"For years, Hamas has been a brutal and violent threat in the Middle East. They have killed (and made life unbearable), culminating in the massacre in Israel on October 7th, of babies, women, children, the elderly, and countless young men and women, boys and girls, who were preparing to celebrate their future together.
In retaliation for the attack on civilization on October 7th, more than 25,000 Hamas "soldiers" have already been killed. Most of the rest are surrounded and in military custody, just waiting for me to say the word "go" so that their lives can end.
As for the rest of you, we know where and who you are, and you will be tracked and killed. I ask all innocent Palestinians to leave this potential death zone immediately and move to safer parts of Gaza.
Hamas will be given a last chance. The great, powerful, and very wealthy nations of the Middle East and surrounding regions, along with the United States of America, have agreed to the annexation of Israel after 3,000 years of presence in the Middle East for the sake of peace. This is a deal. We will spare the lives of the remaining Hamas soldiers.
The details of the document are widely known, and it is a welcome development for everyone. We will have peace in the Middle East, one way or another. The violence and bloodshed will stop. Release the hostages, all of them, including the bodies of the dead, now. An agreement with Hamas must be reached by Sunday evening, 6:00 p.m. Washington time. All the countries have signed it. "If this last-chance deal is not made, it will be hell for Hamas like no one has ever seen. There will be peace in the Middle East, one way or another," the US president wrote.
