Trump's Gaza Plan Has Wide Support [semi-satire]
Semi-News/Semi-Satire ^ | 5 October 2025 | John Semmens

Posted on 10/05/2025 7:37:36 AM PDT by John Semmens

President Donald Trump's 20-point plan to end the war in Gaza garnered widespread support from many Middle Eastern countries. Foreign ministers of Saudi Arabia, Jordan, the UAE, Indonesia, Pakistan, Türkiye, Qatar, Egypt, and the Palestinian Authority all welcomed Trump's efforts and agreed to work with the US to advance the implementation of the peace plan.

The plan includes releasing the remaining hostages, disarming Hamas, and the possibility of a Palestinian state — if Hamas complies with the plan and the Palestinian Authority agrees to discontinue its anti-Israel policies. If Hamas does not comply, Israel is authorized to continue fighting until Hamas is totally eliminated.

Trump predicted "a sad outcome for Hamas if it fails to opt for peace. Mr. al-Hadad has seen all of his predecessors killed. He cannot expect to prevail or even survive continued war. Israeli forces will destroy what is left of Hamas. All the sane leaders in the region recognize that war is the worst option. Peace will enable a fabulous development of Gaza into profitable land with major resorts and attractions that will benefit the people who live there. Al-Hadad has only a short time to decide whether he wants to participate in this prosperity or preside over the destruction of Hamas."

In other Muslim news, United Kingdom judicial authorities jailed Hamit Coskun for provoking Moussa Kadri to stab him. The provocation came when Coskun, whose family had suffered under Turkish Islamist rule, decided to protest by burning a copy of the Koran. Kadri got a knife and stabbed Coskun while shouting "I'm going to kill you." The authorities found Kadri's explanation "I was trying to protect my religion in the traditional Islamic way" sufficient to release him into the community.

The UK and France might now send weapons to the PLO.

Hamas strongly opposes the establishment of an international administration in the Gaza Strip, and the organization’s negotiation team insists that a ceasefire take effect at the start of the talks. In other words, rejection of the Trump Plan.

“Why did the judge reject my stated motive of criticizing political Islam, rather than all Muslims? Because he accepted the prosecution’s argument that I hadn’t shouted Erdoğan often enough while the first of two assailants physically attacked me outside the consulate. At what point, exactly, would the Crown Prosecution Service have preferred me to launch into an explanation of the slow erosion of Kemalist secularism in the republic founded by Atatürk? While the second assailant was chasing me? Spitting at me? Or while he was kicking me as I lay on the ground?”

That’s worth a read of the whole.

Your link has this:

“President Trump had a Navy hospital ship with the capacity to house 500 to 1,000 patients sent to New York. Unfortunately, virtually no covid patients were sent to the ship by New York government officials. Mayor Bill de Blasio explained “I didn’t think it would be good optics to let Trump be credited as some sort of savior for the ill. At the time the narrative we were working on was that Trump was too incompetent to deal with the pandemic.’”

Not my link, excepting in identyfing John Semmens as a GOP Briefing Room guy. When he is not linking to another competitor to Free Republic.

Additionally, along with some few other Freepers, the links to GOPBriefing Room -- as I said, a competitor to Free Republic -- are about gaining "converts" or at least traffic for another site.

Blog flogging is a "thing" on Free Republic, as attempts to divert traffic to other sites continues.

Two bucks that your comment # 6 pinged / addressed to the OP goes unanswered for a long time, or never, since he seems uninterested in other Freepers and other Free Republic posts.

I am not a “GOP BRIEFING ROOM guy.”

I post on different sites in the manner preferred by the site. A couple of sites prefer a single weekly post of the whole column. Free Republic does not. So, FR gets individual item posts. No FR reader needs to visit any other site in order to see all the individual articles. They will all show up on FR within a few days.

That’s one of the sites that prefers the whole weekly column in one dose.

---- "That's one of the sites that prefers the whole weekly column in one dose."

The gopbriefingroom.com and freedomsphoenix.com are the sites which you have linked to regularly.

Your posts to FR as simple vanity work just fine. Linking to news aggregator sites which solicit money are in COMPETITION with Freepers donating to Free Republic, that's the point.

In this thread to the moment, three other Freepers -- DownInFlames, jjotto, and Brian Griffin -- commented/pinged to you, yet mine which merely shows your links is the comment to which you responded -- twice so far out of only twelve.

Maybe other Freepers have a different perspective, but your posts seem to be only about promoting your work, and most usually linking to competitive sites. If you've a problem with my comments to this effect, please take it up with the Robinsons and their moderators. Please.
