Israeli sources speaking to Maariv said that Qatar pressured the terrorist group hard to give Trump an achievement he could celebrate during his visit to the Middle East.
Donald J. Trump @realDonaldTrump:
I am happy to announce that Edan Alexander, an American citizen who has been held hostage since October 2023, is coming home to his family. I am grateful to all those involved in making this monumental news happen. This was a step taken in good faith towards the United States and the efforts of the mediators — Qatar and Egypt — to put an end to this very brutal war and return ALL living hostages and remains to their loved ones. Hopefully this is the first of those final steps necessary to end this brutal conflict. I look very much forward to that day of celebration!https://truthsocial.com/@realDonaldTrump/posts/114491594957458207
BECAUSE ALL THE HIGH UP MUSLIMS LIVE IN QATAR
THEY ARE THE ONES WE NEVER ACTUALLY SEE
There was no “good faith” whatsoever on the part of the Qatari scumbags.
Exactly!! How deep is the relationship with Qatar & Hamas? What did they know & when?
Exactly. Even the bombers-handlers yhave comfortable sofas there...and whores too.
You know was President then right?
Edan Alexander will be released on Tuesday (Tuesday, May 13, 2025).

Israel Prime Minister’s Office (Today):
The expected release of IDF soldier Edan Alexander without compensation will be possible due to the aggressive policy we led with the backing of President Trump, and thanks to the military pressure of IDF soldiers in the Gaza Strip.
Israel did not commit to any ceasefire or to the release of terrorists, but only to a safe corridor that would allow for Edan’s release.
We are in critical days when Hamas is faced with a deal that will allow for the release of our hostages. Negotiations will continue under fire and while preparations are being made to intensify the fighting.
