TRUMP'S TRIUMPH OVER TERROR
All Hostages Home, But at What Cost to Israel's Future?
In a stunning diplomatic coup that rewrites the annals of Middle
Eastern conflict, President Donald Trump has orchestrated a peace
treaty between Israel and Hamas, culminating in the release of all
remaining hostages seized during the barbaric October 7, 2023,
massacre. On October 13, 2025, in Sharm el-Sheikh, Egypt, Trump stood
alongside Arab and European leaders to sign the historic accord,
declaring the Gaza war over after two years of unrelenting horror.
Hamas, the U.S.-designated terror organization, handed over the final
20 living captives and the remains of deceased ones, ending a
nightmare that gripped Israel and the world.
TRUMP'S RELENTLESS MEDIATION—LEVERAGING QATAR, EGYPT, AND EVEN
TURKEY—BROKE THE IMPASSE, FORCING HAMAS TO RELINQUISH ITS MOST
POTENT BARGAINING CHIP WITHOUT A FULL ISRAELI WITHDRAWAL. Netanyahu
hailed Trump as "the greatest friend Israel has ever had in the White
House," while freed families wept in Tel Aviv's Hostage Square, where
65,000 Israelis gathered under a clear sky pierced by helicopters
ferrying the survivors home.
THIS ACHIEVEMENT IS UNPRECEDENTED IN ISRAEL'S HISTORY, A TESTAMENT TO
TRUMP'S UNYIELDING DEAL-MAKING AMID BIDEN-ERA FAILURES. Yet the
hostages' stories emerging from Gaza's bowels reveal depths of
savagery that no treaty can erase. Many endured 505 to 730 days in
Hamas's subterranean "Metro"—a sprawling 60-foot-deep network of
suffocating tunnels, barely three feet wide, carved ceaselessly from
dawn to midnight even as war raged above. Deprived of daylight for
months, chained in darkness with minimal human contact, they survived
on 300 calories a day: stale bread, brackish water, and occasional
scraps while captors feasted mockingly. Medical neglect festered
wounds from the initial abduction; starvation induced emaciation,
partial blindness, and psychological torment. Eli Sharabi, released
after 491 days, described barefoot drags into "squalid tombs" where
torture—beatings, isolation—broke bodies but not spirits. Women
like Naama Levy bore signs of abuse, their chains a grim echo of
medieval dungeons. These weren't soldiers; they were
civilians—festival-goers, kibbutz families, the elderly—starved
and tortured as human shields in Hamas's warren of evil.
BUT THIS HAMAS-PALESTINIAN HOSTAGE TAKING WASN’T AN ANOMALY; IT’S
DOCTRINE.
Contrast this with past Palestinian hostage crises, a grim ledger of
prolonged agony unique in modern warfare. Gilad Shalit, kidnapped in
2006, languished unknown—alive or dead?—for over five years in
Hamas isolation until a 2011 swap freed him for 1,027 prisoners, many
terrorists who later masterminded October 7. The 1985 Jibril Agreement
saw three IDF soldiers held for nearly two years by PFLP-GC, exchanged
for 1,150 Palestinians. Nachshon Wachsman, snatched in 1994, was
murdered after 20 days during a botched rescue. Unlike civilized
nations employing precision strikes or sanctions, Palestinian
militants—Hamas, Islamic Jihad, Fatah's brigades—weaponize
abductions as barbaric relics from the Middle Ages.

NO OTHER CONFLICT SEES NEIGHBORS TUNNELING UNDER BORDERS TO SNATCH
INNOCENTS FOR EXTORTION, HOLDING THEM IN FILTH TO EXTORT CONCESSIONS.
IT'S NOT TACTICS; IT'S RITUALIZED CRUELTY, ROOTED IN CHARTERS VOWING
ISRAEL'S ERASURE.
Israel stands alone as the only nation hemmed by existential foes
within a landmass the size of New Jersey, where survival demands
eternal vigilance. A POST-OCTOBER 7 ARAB WORLD FOR RESEARCH AND
DEVELOPMENT (AWRAD) POLL OF WEST BANK AND GAZA ARABS—known as
"Palestinians" circa 1967—laid bare the moral rot: 74% SUPPORTED THE
HAMAS ATROCITIES, with 59% "extremely" backing the murders, rapes, and
kidnappings of Jews, and 15% "somewhat." Only 12% opposed, a mere 7%
"extremely against" slaughtering children. In the West Bank, under the
Palestinian Authority's "moderate" rule, support soared to 83%, versus
63% in Gaza—where even after weeks of devastation, only 20%
recoiled. Is this tactical or moral? THE NUMBERS SCREAM ENDORSEMENT OF
JIHAD. Echoes resound IN AMERICA, where HALF OF MUSLIMS DEEM HAMAS'S
CIVILIAN SLAUGHTER "LEGITIMATE," ONE IN FIVE CHEERS THE MASSACRE, AND
67% HARBOR ANTI-ISRAEL VENOM

imported via unchecked immigration of terror sympathizers steeped in
Koranic calls to obliterate Jews and Shariah's supremacist fury.

THE BIG QUESTION NOW: AFTER TRUMP'S ASTONISHING FEAT—DELIVERING ALL
HOSTAGES AT GRAVE COST, SWAPPING NON-COMBATANT CIVILIANS FOR THOUSANDS
OF CONVICTED MASS MURDERERS THROUGH A JUSTICE SYSTEM HAMAS
MOCKS—WHAT AWAITS PHASE 2?
REMEMBER, HAMAS'S CHARTER THUNDERS: "ISRAEL WILL EXIST AND WILL
CONTINUE TO EXIST UNTIL ISLAM WILL OBLITERATE IT, JUST AS IT
OBLITERATED OTHERS BEFORE IT." As the world blurs and confuses Gaza's
rubble—destroyed to unearth combatants and miles of tunnels enabling
endless ambushes—with "ethnic cleansing," mistaking structural
demolition for life's extermination, the climb steepens. I doubt Hamas
will fold, renounce its charter, or abandon its Muslim Brotherhood
roots in stealth civilizational jihad, infiltrating Western nations
since before Israel's 1948 rebirth. They've waged this blood war
against Jews' ancestral right to a land largely unoccupied by
Arabs—Jerusalem majority-Jewish under Ottoman rule—clinging to
caliphate maps where conquered soil stays Islamic eternally, win or
lose.

TRUMP, THREADING ISLAMIST ANCIENTS AND RUSSIAN RELICS, FIGHTS FOR
PEACE AND I PRAY HIS SUCCESS ENDURES, EYES WIDE TO THIS ENEMY'S
GUILES—DECEPTIVE, CONCEALING STRENGTH UNTIL IT STRIKES ANEW. May we
forge lasting security shielding Israeli neighbors from another
October 7 shadow, where cowardly butchers murder helpless babies and
elderly in their failed "Al-Aqsa Flood" bid for Jerusalem. _THE WEST
MUST RALLY IN PHASE 2 AND BEYOND—PEACE DEMANDS IRONCLAD DILIGENCE
AGAINST HISTORY'S OLDEST HATE._
