U.S. President Donald Trump is at it again. He made another bombastic Hamas last Monday threat to cancel the Israel-Hamas ceasefire and hostage release deal when he declared that if Hamas does not release all remaining hostages by noon on Saturday, the ceasefire should be canceled and the war in Gaza renewed. To begin with, Trump has nothing to do with the ceasefire deal, even though he claimed credit for brokering the ceasefire. However, the deal was reached: * Before Trump took office* After more than year of negotiation. * Heroic resistance by Palestinian factions.* Gazans instance to rather die from bombs and starvation than leaving.  Netanyahu does not care about the hostage. He only cares about his coalition, staying in power, and not going to jail. He threatened war and his sidekick Trump irresponsibly followed suit. Trump was misled by Netanyahu that most of the hostages held in Gaza were dead.  Neither before or after Trump has taken office did, he express interest about the safety and welfare of the hostages whether they were Palestinians or Israeli or even Americans to that effect.  Where was Trump when Florida Governor Ron DeSantis arranged two flights of 270 Americans along with four of their dogs who were there one week after the start of the war. Many on the flights were from Florida.  Over 500 Palestinian Americans were stranded there for over 6 months were not that lucky. Nine Palestinian Americans sued the U.S. government for failing to evacuate American citizens, American legal residents, and the family members of Americans trapped under Israeli bombardment in Gaza. The lawsuit according to Reuters' Dec. 20, 2024, story accuses the State Department of discriminating against Americans of Palestinian origin by abandoning them in a war zone and not making the same effort that it would promptly evacuate and protect Americans of different origins in similar situations. Gadeir Abbas, who is the Council on American-Islamic Relations (CAIR)'s National Deputy Litigation Director, stated: "The government has a duty to protect American citizens and has failed its duty here by abandoning our clients in Gaza. We simply ask the State Department to treat Palestinian Americans the way it treats Americans of other backgrounds when they’re trapped in conflict zones.” It looks like the rescue of American citizens stranded in Gaza did not make it to President Trump's America First priority list. Since 1979, the United States is giving Egypt and Israel an average of $2 billion and 3.8 billion in annual aid respectively. Can't Mr. America First call a shot everyone in a while? Make no mistakes about it, Netanyahu did a lot of damage to the United States in the past twenty years. He took the US to Libya, Iraq, Syria, and Lebanon, pushed for Iran to attack, and damaged American world leadership and credibility to the point of no return. Now, he is manipulating President Trump and sanctioning the ICC, withdrawing from the UN Human Rights Commission, withdrawing from UNICEF, banning UNRWA, cutting US aid, and using him to clean Gaza from its indigenous people. Who is going to listen and follow the United States anymore?  Trump is a mad and dangerous man and relying on him to do any good is absurd. The sooner the world sees this, the sooner he becomes irrelevant and stops wreaking destruction. Do not count on this man to save anything. All he cares about is money and himself. Meanwhile, Qatari and Egyptian negotiators were able to iron the difference where Israel agreed according to the deal to send temporary shelters & caravans of heavy-duty equipment to remove the rubble for the returning Palestinians to the north of Gaza. I think to provide these things certainly is simpler than more war & destruction, God forbid. Hamas did agree to free the three Israeli hostages scheduled to be released tomorrow Saturday "Shabbat" as originally agreed upon in the deal. Not ALL the hostages as demanded by 47. Is that so complicated? Trump just puts fuel on the fire with his threat to Palestinians. His statement about ethnically cleansing over 2 million Gazans to Jordan and Egypt is ludicrous, and idiotic, it is also disrespectful, and offensive to each and every Palestinian; because Gaza belongs to the Palestinian people, not to 47, and is not for sale. Gaza belongs to the Palestinian people. Mahmoud El-Yousseph is a Palestinian freelancer for Islamicity.com and ColumbusFreepress.com. He can be reached at elyousseph6@yahoo.com.
