Trump says Hamas has ‘three or four days’ to respond to Gaza plan or ‘pay in hell’
US President Donald Trump said Tuesday he will give Hamas “three or four days” to agree to his Gaza peace plan, “or pay in hell,” as the terror group faces heavy pressure from the Arab world to accept the proposal.
A day after unveiling the proposal alongside Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu, Trump told reporters as he departed the White House that Israeli and Arab leaders have accepted the plan and “we’re just waiting for Hamas.”
He said the terror group has about “three or four days” to respond. “Hamas is either going to be doing it or not, and if it’s not, it’s going to be a very sad end.”
Asked if there is room for negotiations on the peace plan, Trump said: “Not much.”
“We have one signature that we need, and that signature will pay in hell if they don’t sign. I hope they sign for their own good and create something really great,” Trump later told US generals and admirals in Quantico, Virginia.
The 20-point plan, unveiled at the White House on Monday, would see all 48 hostages — roughly 20 of whom are believed to be alive — released within 72 hours, and the Strip demilitarized and handed over to a transitional, “technocratic” government. Hamas members who give up their arms would be granted amnesty.
In exchange, Israel will release 250 prisoners serving life sentences; 1,700 Gazans detained after October 7, including all women and children; and 15 bodies of deceased Gazans for every body of an Israeli hostage released.
Aid will then flow into the war-torn enclave, and a process of demilitarizing, de-radicalizing, and redeveloping the Strip will begin.

Who will know if they did or did not respond? The prophecies say there will be "peace" and then the war will start. This is just more misdirection. For the greatest impact Russia and Iran need to be attacked on the same day. Most likely a Thursday.
