As a special envoy, meeting with various people, regardless of their nature, is part of my job to assist Americans. Meeting with Hamas was something that we had discussed beforehand. When you sit in front of them knowing what they've done, it's hard not to think of it, but realizing that every piece of a person is human can be productive. Regarding the American hostages in Gaza, one is alive, and four bodies remain. I think Israel has done a masterful job eliminating enemies of the state. I believe a long-term truce is possible where prisoners are forgiven, Hamas lays down arms and agrees to not be part of the political party going forward. I understand Israel's concern regarding direct contact with Hamas and it's important to know what Hamas realistically wants to end hostilities. Something could come together within weeks and I believe there is enough there to make a deal to get all of the prisoners out, not just the Americans.

Today was an emotionally difficult day as I visited the places where people were murdered. During my talk with the prime minister, we discussed the three necessary steps for the situation in Gaza. Firstly, it is essential to eliminate those who continue to harm innocent civilians. Secondly, we must reform the education system to prevent the training of future murderers. Lastly, it is crucial to focus on building prosperity in the region. These three actions are imperative for progress and stability.

The conversation centers on allegations that October 7 was a preplanned false flag designed to ethnically cleanse Palestinians and then rebuild Gaza for vast profits. Speaker 0 asserts the plan predates October 7 and points to a confession by Jared Kushner on 60 Minutes, implying a two-year master plan developed before the attack with Steve Witkoff and Kushner pushing it. The speakers claim this is part of a broader orchestrated narrative where “the whole world is a stage.” Key claims and details include: - A “master plan” existed before October 7, with Jared Kushner “pushing this” and Kavner (Steve Witkoff) admitting advances two years prior. The implication is that October 7 served as a justification to implement the plan. - The rebuilding of Gaza is framed as a profit-driven project: billions of dollars from beachfront property and trillions from offshore natural gas resources. - There is explicit concern about the treatment of Palestinians vs. Gazans, with a critique of terminology used by Kushner, who is said to refer to the people as Gazans rather than Palestinians, signaling a shift in framing of a people’s national identity. - Three journalists were killed by Israel, including a CBS freelance reporter, and the coverage is described as being muted or “crickets” from CBS News, especially given Bari Weiss’s position at CBS News. The segment notes that over 300 journalists have been killed in Gaza, more than in any modern war, and highlights a disparity in media attention. - At Davos, Jared Kushner unveiled a plan for rebuilding Gaza under a who’s-who of international stakeholders, including a new governance structure and a “demilitarization” condition, with emphasis on a process that would be implemented in phases and under a new government in Gaza. - A “master plan” envisions zones in Gaza, previously floated ideas like a free zone and a Hamas zone, but the eventual framing is “New Gaza” aimed at employment, industry, and a destination for Gazans to thrive, contingent on security and governance. - The board of peace is described as a body that would study and publicize best practices in education, health care, and governance, with the aim of peace implementation. The plan emphasizes demilitarization and notes that without it, Gaza’s reconstruction cannot proceed. - The discussion notes that cooperation involved multiple regional actors (Israel, Turkey, Qatar, Saudi Arabia, Egypt, UAE) and encourages aid and private investment, with a call to calm down and work together for peace. - Critics question whether Kushner’s plan aligns with Israeli interests, referencing biometric scans, surveillance, and concentration-camp-like measures already in place in Gaza, and noting long-term plans by settler groups to reoccupy rebuilt areas. - There is concern that appointing President Trump to a permanent role on the Board of Peace could insulate Israel from American political shifts, effectively “future-proofing” support for the plan. Participants identified include Harrison Berger from the American Conservative and Drop Site News, Laura Loomer expressing skepticism, and a reminder that media coverage has been selective in condemning or highlighting violence against Palestinians and journalists. The overall tone is that the plan is a coordinated effort involving international and corporate actors to reshape Gaza while advancing Israeli expansionist objectives, with a focus on governance, demilitarization, and economic redevelopment as prerequisites for reconstruction.

I am addressing you from the Oval Office. Today, I want to highlight significant news: after eight months of negotiations, a ceasefire and hostage deal between Israel and Hamas has been reached. This plan, which I detailed in May, was developed by my team and will be implemented by the incoming administration. I ensured that my team kept the incoming administration informed, as collaboration is essential for us as Americans.

We need to revitalize the Palestinian Authority by providing support for good governance. This includes addressing issues, such as transparency and accountability, in Gaza and the West Bank. We also need to consider a security plan for the region, both in the short and long term. Lastly, there is a commitment to rebuilding Gaza.

President Biden and the speaker are working to finalize a hostage and ceasefire deal regarding the war in Gaza. The speaker stated they will always stand up for Israel's right to defend itself and ensure Israel has the ability to do so. The speaker believes the people of Israel must never again face the horror of October 7th caused by Hamas.

We must have conversations with Israel to protect innocent lives in Gaza and provide humanitarian aid to Palestinians. President Biden aims for a two-state solution for peace in the Middle East.

We must remember the plan from Egypt and the Arab nations. We've been invited by Mohammed bin Salman for discussions in Riyadh. We need to figure out how to make this beneficial for everyone, especially considering the best interests of the United States and the people of my country, Jordan. We can immediately take 2,000 sick children to Jordan and await the Egyptian plan to tackle larger issues. That gesture of taking 2,000 children with cancer or other illnesses is truly appreciated. We will work with Egypt and Jordan, with high-level assistance from others, to achieve great progress. With the United States in control of a significant piece of land, there will be stability in the Middle East for the first time. The people of Gaza will live safely in another location, free from the constant violence. They will have great homes and families, safe from Hamas. I am confident we can work something out with Egypt, almost certainly.

The involvement of President-elect Trump's team has been crucial in finalizing this deal, especially with the current administration's term ending in 5 days. The United States, Egypt, and Qatar are the guarantors, with Egypt and Qatar encouraging Hamas to negotiate and the U.S. urging Israel to do the same. It's essential for all parties to recognize that U.S. commitments should extend beyond this administration. Having representatives from both the outgoing and incoming administrations negotiating a ceasefire is unusual but significant. We appreciate the Trump team's participation in this agreement.

I came here tonight to show the way forward. I believe Roe v. Wade got it right, and we need to guarantee the right to ABF. Builders need federal financing. Federal help is over a trillion dollars, so millions of families can get what they need to go to work, watching auto jobs in the future and instigating collection. There's no other path that guarantees Palestinians can live in peace and dignity. If Hamas releases hostages, lays down arms, and surrenders, this conflict could end. I respectfully say to my Republican friends, what freedom else would you take away? My energetic and fiery state of the union was transformative, and a political win for me. I'd be a winner with my leadership of Israel. It was one of the finest moments of my presidency. I want competition with China, not conflict.

The discussion centers on the fragile peace deal and the ongoing conflict with Hamas, with emphasis on Hamas’ true nature, disarmament, hostage issues, humanitarian aid, and regional dynamics including Lebanon and Iran. - Hamas remains a terrorist organization. The interlocutor states that Hamas has not changed its stripe and is using the ceasefire to reassert control in Gaza through mass executions of those opposed or suspected of working with Israel, while attempting to rebuild its strength. The plan, in partnership with Netanyahu, is to disarm Hamas, dismantle its terror infrastructure, and build Gaza into something different, a top priority under the Trump plan. - The peace deal is a work in progress. Neither Israel, the United States, nor other actors expect Hamas to act in good faith. The discussion emphasizes that if Hamas does not disarm, it will be eradicated, a statement framed as a serious US commitment reflecting the nature of the war and regional determination to end Hamas as a threat. - The 20-stage plan and pathway forward. The plan provides a pathway to end Hamas as a regime and terror army in Gaza and to prevent Gaza from threatening Israel going forward. The goal is to disarm Hamas, dismantle its infrastructure, and transform Gaza into a stable, peaceful entity, though it remains a “work in progress.” - Hostages and displaced persons. A central issue is the status of hostages: Hamas holds 13 of the 28 people Hamas allegedly murdered and held, with 18 returned so far, and 25 originally cited in discussions (the transcript mentions 28 total murdered and 18 returned, with 13 still in Hamas control). The speaker argues that Hamas knows the whereabouts of several more hostages and should deliver them; the claim is that some hostages who were said to be unlocated could be found even if debris removal is slow. The Red Cross and humanitarian organizations say recovering bodies will be a massive, decades-long challenge, but the speakers argue that locating hostages does not require full debris removal. Aid and humanitarian access are discussed, including a suspension of aid after the killing of Israeli soldiers that was brief and then reinstated; aid trucks are allowed through to humanitarian zones controlled by Israel in Gaza, with concerns about Hamas siphoning aid for its own purposes. - Aid leakage and Hamas control of aid. The speakers contend that Hamas stole or redirected up to 95% of aid in Gaza prior to the ceasefire, using it to fund its war against Israel. They argue that UN agencies operating in Gaza are often under Hamas influence, whether willingly or unwillingly, and thus aid distribution has been compromised when Hamas governs. - Hamas’ current behavior in Gaza and security concerns. Hamas is described as reasserting control by mass executions and intimidation; there is concern about how much control they exert over the areas they govern and the potential for continued war if they disarm remains unactioned. The discussion stresses that the longer Hamas can control areas, the more they can pursue their war. - Trump–Kushner–Witkoff diplomatic leverage. The discussion credits President Trump’s diplomacy with changing Hamas’s calculus. The Qatar strike that nearly targeted Hamas negotiators is acknowledged as a turning point; Kushner and Witkoff claimed that Hamas wanted peace when engaged directly in Egypt, and that the strike on Qatar frightened Hamas into reconsidering its position. The interlocutor suggests that palace diplomacy, allied pressure in the Arab and Islamic world, and the military pressure on Gaza City converged to push Hamas toward releasing hostages and engaging with the peace process. - Israel’s regional strategy and deterrence. The speaker emphasizes that Israel must be able to defend itself and maintain power in the region. The Abraham Accords are cited as a success, with normalization continuing because partners recognize Israel’s stability and the advantages of cooperation. The Palestinian statehood question is reframed as a broader test of Palestinian willingness to accept Israel’s existence; the speaker notes parliamentary support in Israel opposing a Palestinian state and argues that Palestinian society must change its stance toward recognizing a Jewish state. - Lebanon and Hezbollah. Optimism is tempered by caution. In Lebanon, there is some movement toward demilitarization, with the Lebanese army involved and Hezbollah’s power being re-evaluated. The speaker stresses that even if conflict ends, Israel will remain vigilant and prepared to prevent a rebuilt Hezbollah threat along the border, citing past upheavals and the need to protect border towns like Kiryat Shmona. - Iran and the wider threat. Iran’s missile program and its nuclear ambitions are described as two cancers threatening Israel: missiles capable of delivering heavy payloads and a nuclear program. The strategic aim is to prevent Iran from creating a “ring of fire” around Israel (Syria, Lebanon, Gaza, Yemen, Iraq) and to prevent metastasis of Iran’s influence from spreading. - Global sentiment and demonization. The speaker acknowledges growing global antisemitism and demonization of Israel post-October 7, but argues that Israel’s demonstrated ability to defend itself strengthens its position and that support should endure as the conflict recedes from prominence. The Palestinian leadership’s stance and the broader regional dynamics remain central to whether a two-state solution can emerge, with a tempered expectation that the peace plan will proceed step by step.

Since his election, Trump has been committed to releasing hostages. He recently congratulated me on the agreement, emphasizing that the first stage is a temporary ceasefire. This is crucial as we prepare for the next stages, ensuring we can recover all hostages. Both Trump and Biden support Israel's right to resume combat if negotiations become unproductive, which I appreciate. Additionally, I value Trump's decision to lift restrictions on providing essential munitions and weapons to Israel. If combat resumes, we will approach it with new strategies and significant force.

Speaker 0 says, "Well, it's a great deal for Israel, and it's a great deal for everybody." He questions, "You wanna get your hostages back. Right? You want them back or do you not want them back?" and adds, "And, it's a great deal for Israel." He continues, "It's a great deal for the entire Arab world, Muslim world, and world. So we're very happy about it all." On timing, he asks, "When do you think the hostage will start being freed?" and responds, "I think very soon. They're in negotiation right now as we speak." He concludes, "They've started the negotiation. It'll last a couple of days. We'll see how it turns out, but I'm hearing it's going very well."

Hamas is seen as a troublemaker, but Israel values every life and aims to bring aid trucks in. Many organizations will be pleased with this commitment. The former house speaker is now joining the conversation. Thank you, Mr. Prime Minister, for your time.

After weeks of saying a ceasefire was impossible, a temporary ceasefire was achieved. This led to the release of hostages and the delivery of humanitarian aid to Gaza. The long-term plan is crucial. Vice President Harris and Acting Secretary of Defense Lloyd Austin emphasized that engaging in urban warfare, like Israel did in northern Gaza, may result in a temporary victory but not a long-term strategic win. To avoid the casualties seen in northern Gaza, it is essential to change the approach to the current war Israel is waging on Gaza.

The deal was achieved under the current president's framework, with significant support from Israel, which weakened Hamas and created the conditions for this outcome. Coordination with the incoming administration was key, emphasizing the importance of a peaceful transition for the American people. The focus is not on credit but on the successful negotiations that will bring hostages home after 15 months of suffering. This is a critical development, and the hope is for continued progress towards ending the conflict. Additionally, increasing humanitarian aid to Gaza is essential, as many people there are in need.

Hamas are evil people, and the idea of them controlling territory is unfathomable. Our hearts break for the families of the deceased, and the return of remains is a sacred thing. Hamas is weaker than before but still a threat and cannot be allowed to reconstitute. As long as Hamas is in Gaza, there will be no peace, and they must be eliminated. No country can coexist with a group whose purpose is destruction and atrocities. The President has a plan for Gaza's reconstruction, which involves removing people from the area to allow construction, but regional partners disagree. If they don't like the President's plan, they should propose a better one. The fundamental challenge is determining who will govern Gaza and how to eliminate Hamas.

And I think it's instructive that now many Gazans are fighting back. They're begging us, they're begging the world. Free us. Free us and free Gaza from Hamas. No nation can accept a genocidal terrorist organization, an organization committed to its annihilation, a stone's thrill from its citizens. Our goal is not to occupy Gaza, our goal is to free Gaza, free it from Hamas terrorists. The war can end tomorrow if Gaza or rather if Hamas lays down its arms and releases all the remaining hostages. Gaza will be demilitarized, Israel will have overriding security responsibility, a security zone will be established on Gaza's border with Israel to prevent future terrorist incursions. A civilian administration will be established in Gaza that will seek to live in peace with Israel.
