US President Donald Trump said Monday he was “not confident” the Gaza ceasefire would last, despite claiming credit for brokering the agreement between Israel and Hamas.
“I’m not confident. It’s not our war, it’s their war,” he said from the Oval Office, when asked by a reporter whether the ceasefire would hold and last through three planned phases. “I looked at a picture of Gaza – Gaza is like a massive demolition site. That place is, it’s really, it’s got to be rebuilt in a different way.”
The American president’s pessimism is not unique. There is significant pressure to restart the Gaza war from extremist right-wing Israeli politicians, who believe the ceasefire was a capitulation to Hamas.

I think there isn’t anyone on earth, who thinks the cease fire will last.
Israel, too, has a Deep State.
And as Randolph Bourne wrote...
“War is the health of the State.”
Trump is a realist and anybody who signs an agreements with Muslim Arabs will be the victim of “Taqyia” and “Hudna”.
Taqyia means lying to a non-Muslim in order to seek an advantage, especially in warfare.
Hudna in the West is considered a ceasefire but in the Arab mentality, Hudna means that when your Muslim forces are at a disadvantage, or losing, sue for a ceasefire only in order to rebuild your forces to the point where they can defeat the enemy (infidel).
Sigh. CNN being CNN. They will eventually go away, but not soon enough for me.
CNN is full of extremist Left-wing poofter fake journalists...
Muzzies cannot be trusted. They love to play games with gullible idiots.
Not it won’t.
Hamas is only using it to regroup and rearm and then go back to killing JEWS.
Only one solution.
Kill all the Hamas Terrorists.
Bibi will do that.
>> I think there isn’t anyone on earth, who thinks the cease fire will last.
Good. I am anxious to see Pete Hegseth’s vision for Hamas become reality.
>> Kill all the Hamas Terrorists.
Amen and Amen. Every last one of the murdering bastards. And every last one of their supporters too.
>> Israel, too, has a Deep State.
Yes, and Israel’s deep state is packed to the gills with secular leftists. Just like here, it’s THEM, not the ones the leftist press brands as “far right extremists”, that need to be eliminated BAMN.
Flat out they will be back to it by noon tomorrow.
Never own something of which you are not in complete control.
We are not in any control.
It never does.
The goal is to retrieve as many hostages as possible before finalizing the end of Hamas.
Why should Hamas want to hold to a ceasefire? If they attack again, the UN will rally around them, and the leftist Israeli hostage lobby will see that all Hamas prisoners are freed in another lopsided prisoner exchange.
You are wrong.
You forget or probably don’t know that the Arabs that matter have aligned with Israel to control Palestine as per the Abraham Accords negotiated by the Trump envoy Jared Kushner
The recent defeat of Hamas was the death throes of Iran attempting to destroy the Accords.
They just need to drive all the Palestinian wannabees back into the Egyptian concentration camps where they came from.
And while we're at it, Jordan needs to be compelled to take back all the West Banker filth.
pull a thanos and do it ourselves, send a battalion in and destroy hamas.
But Hamas will NEVER return the final hostage because that would GREEN-LIGHT the resumption of hostilities by the IDF, Mossad & Shin Bet.
Hamas will NEVER release the final hostage.
NEVER.
