Sir Tony Blair wants to run Gaza once the war between Israel and Hamas is over.
The former prime minister has spearheaded a plan to end the war through his think tank, the Tony Blair Institute (TBI).
The Telegraph understands that Sir Tony, 72, offered to head an interim government in Gaza on the proviso that power eventually would be handed over to the Palestinian Authority, which controlled the Gaza Strip until 2006.
He has the support of several powerful figures, including Jared Kushner, Donald Trump’s son-in-law and a former Middle East adviser, and Steve Witkoff, the US president’s special envoy.
In a meeting with the US president at the White House on Aug 27, Mr Kushner and Mr Witkoff argued that the former Labour leader could run a temporary administration in Gaza.
Sources told The Economist that Sir Tony was “willing to sacrifice his time” to end the war and help run Gaza.
Mr Trump backed that plan before presenting the idea to the leaders of Turkey, Pakistan, Indonesia and five Arab nations at the United Nations General Assembly in New York this week.
“Maybe we can end [the war] right now,” he reportedly told them.
Mr Trump said Thursday night that he would not allow Benjamin Netanyahu, the Israeli prime minister, to annex the West Bank.
“I will not allow it,” he said while signing executive orders in the Oval Office. “It’s not going to happen. There’s been enough. It’s time to stop now.”

Sure thing. Send him and Starmer and all the “immigrants” in the UK over there and they can govern them.
Hah! Hamas will run him in circles.
,,, Sir Tony needs to be needed. The world needs him to be retired in the Caymans - a nice sunny place for shady people.
Tony Blair takes us back to the Clinton years...
Hamas got its money from Qatar, heck aides to Netanyahu in Israel are under investigation for taking Qatari money. Qatar provided the US with a new Air Force One.
So, one has to realize there has got to be a financial side to this for Mr. Blair.

Must be money involved.
,,, yeah, you're right. Billy Jeff was getting funding from the Dixie Mafia and Blair converted to Catholicism. I wonder if Blair was on the Vatican's payroll.
LOL! Let him do it! He’ll last ten days tops and then we’ll either see him behaved on YouTube or hung from a lamppost... if there are any still standing in Gaza.
“The world needs him to be retired in the Caymans...”
NOOOOO, I like the Caymans!
He needs to be retired in a pit with caimans.
I guess it must pay A LOT and no accountability or results required.
Just what Israel and the Mideast needs, more British meddling
/s
Sorry Tony. You Brits already colonized that area once. No second chances chump.
Peter Hitchens gives a definitive view of Blair an Extreme Leftist who infiltrated into the mainstream.
Much like the Clintons IMHO.
,,, he’s a Brit - OK, Gibraltar.
Who wants to see the Brits screw the pooch in the Levant again?
“Me!” Nobody
Have fun.
Don’t forget to write.
