As much of the mainstream media and politicians are jumping for joy at the great deal Trump brought about between Israel and hamass, have you begun to question why the Arabs are soooo willing to lay the “credit” for the great deal at Trump’s feet? I mean one thing Beijing Biden told the truth about recently is that really was his disgusting, lopsided deal that Israel had been refusing because it was so horrific.
So it appears to me, Bibi and the Israelis stood strong since last spring despite biden and the demoncrats holding up weapons and bulldozers Israel had paid for in the hopes that once Trump was sworn in things would be better. It’s not that Israel doesn’t want their people back, they do desperately, but the biden deal was just so horrid.
And then Trump betrayed them, and everyone that took support of Israel into consideration when voting for him.
From Daniel Greenfield, who is spot on. The Hamas Surrender Deal Sets Up Trump to Fail
Only so much can be known from outside, but Steve Witkoff appears to have been taken for a ride by longtime pros like Secretary of State Blinken and Brett McGurk and is enjoying the flattering media stories about him ‘intimidating’ and ‘cursing out’ Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu.
Witkoff is being taken for a ride and the Trump administration is being taken for a ride with him. He didn’t succeed, he failed miserably at extracting meaningful concessions from Hamas, and went right back to Biden’s policy of pressuring Israel. Instead of delivering a win for Trump, he delivered one for Biden.
That’s the optimistic view. One I no longer hold. Witkoff showed what he is when he “met” with Bibi Netanyahu.
On Saturday, Gaza ceasefire talks were down to the wire, and President-elect Donald Trump’s Middle East envoy wanted to hash out the deal once and for all with Benjamin Netanyahu, but the Israeli leader’s office said he could not be roused during Shabbat.
Steve Witkoff allegedly gave a “salty” reply, making it clear he didn’t care if it was the Sabbath, the Jewish day of rest. In the words of one report from Haaretz, Witkoff said Trump expected Israel to agree to the ceasefire, and “things that Netanyahu had termed life-and-death issues…suddenly vanished.”
So why would such an inexperienced diplomat willingly expose his rudeness right off the bat? This is behavior no one would expect would be acceptable in a professional organization that the Trump team purports to be. And yet, he is. Arrogance, pride in self-perceived accomplishments. This behavior is even worse than a demoncrat.
OH! Because he got millions of dollars from Qatar possibly? Inauguration Chair Steve Witkoff Under Fire for Terror Links after Forcing “Disastrous” Deal with Hamas on Israel
Journalist Caroline Glick shed light on the role of Steve Witkoff and his business ties to Hamas-supporting Qatar.
“They have an enormous amount of money that they use to buy influence in the West, and especially in Donald Trump’s circle. And one of those people is Steven Witkoff”, Glick said.
“Witkoff owned a property on Central Park South called the Park Lane Hotel that had gone into a lot of difficulties because his Malaysian partner was exposed as a fraudster and fled to China”, Glick cited a story by the Jewish Insider:
In the summer of 2023 … Witkoff had sold Manhattan’s troubled Park Lane Hotel, which had also counted Abu Dhabi’s investment firm as a stakeholder, to the Qatar Investment Authority, the country’s sovereign wealth fund, for $623 million — adding to a push into New York real estate.
But in addition to being a potential asset for Witkoff, who reportedly views Middle East geopolitics as “one giant real estate deal,” his past dealings with Qatar in particular could place the incoming envoy in an uncomfortable position, experts say — as the Gulf state has faced bipartisan criticism in Congress for hosting Hamas leadership.
The Park Lane sale came after Qatar had engaged in an aggressive and widespread lobbying effort during Trump’s first term, as the president-elect sided with Saudi Arabia and other neighboring states that had imposed a blockade on the Gulf country.
Seeking to build goodwill with the U.S., Qatar launched a campaign to influence hundreds of people close to Trump, including Witkoff, who was among several American executives to meet with Qatari officials, according to foreign lobbying disclosures that broadly describe a series of “introductions” to “facilitate collaboration” and discuss “business opportunities,” among other things.
Snip snip snip
Steve Witkoff is also the co-chair of President Trump’s inauguration committee, which has come under fire for inviting a radical Pro-Hezbollah Imam to lead a prayer at the Inauguration Monday.
Imam Husham Al-Husainy of the Karbalaa Islamic Educational Center in Dearborn, Michigan has a “significant history of extremism”, the Middle East Forum revealed. “In 2015, he and his organization hosted a rally … in which he wished death upon Saudi Arabia, and denounced Saudis as “agents of the Jews” whose “Zionist” planes “rain down” death upon the people of Yemen.”
In 2006, at a pro-Hezbollah rally in Dearborn, Michigan, Al-Husainy “held the picture of Hezbollah leader [Hassan] Nasrallah aloft on the stage.”

In 2007, Al-Husainy had a shouting match with Fox News host Sean Hannity on air over his support for Islamic terror organization Hezbollah.
Yeah, boy howdy that Trump inauguration is going to be “special”. I know I certainly wanted another president with ties to radical Islam. I mean Barry Sotero did such a great job for U.S.
So, what is this “deal” everyone is celebrating?
Will it bring the hostages home? Yes some. But one would have thought a smart business man would have asked, “What does it cost”? Apparently that doesn’t go through the mind of a smart business man.
Here’s what it costs. For the 33 hostages that will be released in phase one, of which it’s estimated 25 are actually alive, Israel will be releasing 1,904 convicted terrorists, 737 of those were serving life sentences for murder. One of them responsible for 6 murders and one responsible for 45 murders. Also included are 1,167 Gazans captured in Gaza for attacking the IDF. In my opinion, the IDF should have just shot them. The rate of recidivism among dead terrorists is very low. 47 of the murderers to be released are repeat murderers who were originally released as part of the Shalit deal in 2011 and have since been re-arrested after attacking again. Shabak estimates 82% of the terrorists released in the Shalit deal returned to terrorism.
Apparently moral relativism is alive and well in the Trump administration. They can’t tell the difference between innocent people that were kidnapped from their own homes and terrorists that were arrested for killing people. This does not bode well for the average American citizen I’d say.
Israel also has to turn over control of certain strategic corridors to Gaza/Hamass. This will allow them to resupply with ammunition and weapons. And they already have, as I type, there are armed men in hamass garb parading in the streets of Gaza. They’ve won.
Israel also has to provide more food and supplies to hamass.
And Trump thinks this is a good deal?? He thinks he’s doing great?
One of the murderers to be released in the killer of Ari Fuld. You can find a column from us on Ari here.
And where will Trump’s and Witkoff’s poor little dears go? Are they being deported to Jordan? Egypt? Syria, Iran? Will Trump send an Israeli version of Tom Homan over there to sort things out? Nope, they’re being released right back into Jerusalem, Judea and Samaria, where they committed their murders and crimes.
Caroline Glick maintains a deal could have been made requiring the release of no terrorists, had Trump and Witkoff chosen to put pressure on Qatar, Turkey and Egypt. But they didn’t, not at all, only on Israel.
So now when you hear President-elect Trump talking tough about deporting illegal invaders, tough on crime, blah blah blah. It might call for a grain of salt, or the whole salt shaker. Maybe even on of those big salt blocks at the feed store.
But I can’t help but wonder, next time he promises some country he has there back, why on earth should they believe him seeing how blithely he can betray his promises.
To put this into perspective for U.S.:
One day one, Trump releases all the Jan6 political prisoners, people that have done nothing wrong but hold the political opinion contrary to the Biden crime junta. There are a lot of those, so he will finish Joe Biden’s start on releasing every illegal invader in prison for committing a crime. Even murder. Laken Riley’s killer will be released back into her neighborhood in Georgia. Kate Steinle’s will be released back into San Francisco. To make sure Americans are safe, America and Mexico will be sharing border security, with Mexico being in charge. To make sure it is all up to snuff, tren de aragua from Venezuela will monitor the situation.
That’s basically how it would translate for U.S.
I can not begin to tell you how much I hope that I am wrong. If I am I will sincerely apologize. If I’m not? No amount of apologies will bring back the deal Israelis that will die because of this betrayal. I can not help but feel a strong sense of concern. I think with his starting out the second term with such a horrific act will cause a stain that can not be undone. And I also feel we the citizens will pay a price. It feels like the Titanic just hit an iceberg.
But what I’m holding on to, are the words Hillel Fuld, Ari’s brother said in one of his comments “But G-d”. Ain Od Milvado. There is no one else besides him.
