President Donald J. Trump once again reminded the world what real leadership looks like — straight talk, no teleprompter, and zero patience for terrorism. Just minutes before the Sunday 6 p.m. deadline for his proposed peace deal with Hamas, Trump posted an urgent message on Truth Social, calling on all sides to act quickly or face the consequences.
“There have been very positive discussions with Hamas, and Countries from all over the World (Arab, Muslim, and everyone else) this weekend,” Trump wrote, describing the talks to release hostages, end the war in Gaza, and finally achieve lasting peace in the Middle East. And, in classic Trump fashion, he added that “the technical teams will again meet Monday, in Egypt, to work through and clarify the final details.” Translation: things are moving — and fast.
Speaking to reporters later that evening, Trump said the meetings were going “very well” and that the first phase of the peace plan “should be completed this week.” In his words, “We had some very good meetings… and it looks like it’s working.” You know, the kind of optimism we didn’t hear once during four years of the current administration.
But Trump didn’t sugarcoat the risks either. In his post, he made it clear what’s at stake if Hamas fails to act: “TIME IS OF THE ESSENCE OR, MASSIVE BLOODSHED WILL FOLLOW — SOMETHING THAT NOBODY WANTS TO SEE!”
And if anyone thought he was bluffing, they must’ve missed his October 3 warning — “If this LAST CHANCE agreement is not reached, all HELL, like no one has ever seen before, will break out against Hamas. THERE WILL BE PEACE IN THE MIDDLE EAST ONE WAY OR THE OTHER.” That’s not just talk; that’s Trump reminding the world that peace through strength isn’t a slogan — it’s policy.
The peace proposal, introduced in late September, lays out a 20-point plan: ending Israel’s military operations, disarming Hamas, and rebuilding Gaza under a U.S.-led international coalition. Even Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu reportedly agreed to the framework.
In short, Trump is doing what career politicians have failed to do for decades — getting results and pushing for real peace in the most volatile region on Earth.
And as he said himself, “MOVE FAST.” Because when Trump says time’s running out, he means it. The world’s watching, and for once, it looks like there’s finally an adult back in the room. God bless America. ??
