Today, Steve Witkoff, serving as U.S. Special Envoy to the Middle East, made very clear and bold statements regarding Hamas and its governance in Gaza. He said, "Hamas is a terrorist organization, it cannot rule Gaza in the future, it's an unhealthy situation."
He closed with an open ended threat: "The President said all that we all need to know, which is: Saturday, 12 o'clock."
First, Witkoff returned from touring Gaza and told Trump it was uninhabitable, leading straight to Trump's bombshell Gaza Riviera solution.
But it was Saturday's hostage release that really got Trump furious. After pushing what many thought was a completely disastrous hostage deal, he said that it's time for Hamas to stop returning the hostages in drips and drabs and give them all back – else he will fully support Netanyahu's re-starting the war, with everything that comes along with that, including Israel having access to weapons he is sending (which were stopped by Biden).
