THE HUDNA: Hamas Terror Group Responds to Trump Plan
Hamas’s response was delivered hours after Trump threatened Hamas in a post on Truth Social. They have dictated their terms for a hudna (temporary truce Islam in order to rearm.)
Here is Hamas’s response. It appears to be written by a cabal of far-left international lawyers.
Hamas has agreed to release the hostages (if you believe what they say) but they insist on being part of the decisions for the future and governance of Gaza. They’re starting to take apart the plan, like they always do.

Israel moves to implement Trump’s Gaza peace plan after Hamas accepts parts of it; hostages, ceasefire, and prisoner releases are still under negotiation

- Acceptance of Core Elements: Hamas agrees to release all Israeli hostages as part of an immediate ceasefire, aligning with the plan’s first phase. This has been hailed by Trump as a major breakthrough, with him stating on Truth Social that “Hamas is ready for lasting peace” and calling for Israel to halt bombardment.
- Demands for Changes:
- Rejects full disarmament and the imposition of a foreign-led administration, viewing it as a “new form of occupation.” Instead, Hamas proposes Gaza’s future governance as an “internal Palestinian issue,” potentially under a unified Palestinian authority (excluding direct Hamas control but preserving resistance structures).
- Calls for a complete Israeli withdrawal from Gaza, an end to the blockade, and reconstruction guarantees before any power transition.
- Omits explicit commitment to dismantling its military wing (Izz ad-Din al-Qassam Brigades), a red line for Israel.
The full text of Hamas’s statement, as translated and posted by Trump, emphasizes ending the “aggression and genocide” in Gaza while defending “Palestinian constants and rights.”International and Regional Reactions
- Positive Signals:
- Arab states (Saudi Arabia, Jordan, UAE, Qatar, Egypt) and Turkey welcomed the response as a step toward de-escalation, with Egypt’s foreign minister noting it avoids giving “excuses for further killings.”
- European leaders like French President Emmanuel Macron and Italian Prime Minister Giorgia Meloni praised it as an “opportunity for decisive progress,” urging swift implementation.
- Palestinian Authority President Mahmoud Abbas endorsed Hamas’s “positive statements” and thanked Trump for efforts toward “lasting peace.”
- Israeli Pushback: Netanyahu’s office described it as a “de-escalation, not a full ceasefire,” with the IDF maintaining positions in Gaza. A senior Israeli official confirmed preparations for the hostage release phase but stressed no concessions on disarmament. Far-right ministers threatened to collapse the coalition if the deal proceeds without Hamas’s total defeat. Israel has intensified strikes in Gaza City, killing at least 66 Palestinians in the last 24 hours (per Gaza’s Health Ministry), while ordering evacuations.
- U.S. Stance: Trump shifted pressure to Israel, posting the response publicly and saying “we’re very close to achieving [peace].” Vice President JD Vance echoed this, calling it a “proud” team effort. However, some U.S. hardliners view it as too lenient, accusing Hamas of stalling.
Current Status and Outlook
- Hostage Release Hopes: The response has boosted optimism for freeing the remaining captives, with mediators scheduling talks in Doha today (October 4). Israel has paused major offensives in parts of Gaza to facilitate this, per ABC News sources.
- Risks of Breakdown: Analysts warn of internal Hamas divisions—political leaders in Qatar/Doha favor adjustments, but Gaza-based military figures (e.g., the late Mohammed Sinwar’s successors) oppose ceding control. Netanyahu faces domestic pressure to “finish the job,” and rejection could trigger escalated Israeli operations.
- Broader Context: This comes amid ongoing violence: Over 66,000 Palestinians killed since October 7, 2023 (Gaza Health Ministry), and recent IDF strikes targeting 40+ Hamas commanders. The plan’s success hinges on bridging the “holes” (per Egypt) through U.S.-brokered talks.
Developments are fluid, with Netanyahu reportedly “surprised” by Trump’s quick endorsement. For real-time updates, monitor Al Jazeera or Reuters live blogs.
Trump plan: Hamas willing to free hostages, but seeks talks on the rest
Hamas says it agrees in principle to Trump’s Gaza plan. Hamas official Abu Marzouq says 72-hour hostage handover is unrealistic and full implementation requires detailed negotiations.
By: Israel National News, Oct 3, 2025:
The Hamas terrorist organization on Friday evening submitted to the mediators its response to US President Donald Trump’s peace plan, according to reports in Al Jazeera and the Qatari Al-Araby channel.
A statement from Hamas said, “After thorough review, the following response was conveyed to the mediators: Hamas appreciates the Arab, Islamic, and international efforts, as well as those of US President Donald Trump, calling for an end to the war in the Gaza Strip, a prisoner exchange, the immediate entry of humanitarian aid, the rejection of the occupation of the Gaza Strip, and the displacement of our Palestinian people from it.”
Hamas continued, “In this context, and to achieve a cessation of hostilities and a complete withdrawal from the Gaza Strip, the movement announces its agreement to release all Israeli hostages, both living and deceased, in accordance with the exchange formula included in President Trump’s proposal, provided that the necessary conditions on the ground are met. In this regard, the movement confirms its readiness to immediately enter into negotiations through the mediators to discuss the details.”
The organization also said it “reaffirms its agreement to hand over the administration of the Gaza Strip to an independent Palestinian body (technocrats) based on Palestinian national consensus and supported by Arab and Islamic backing.”
“The other issues raised in President Trump’s proposal regarding the future of the Gaza Strip and the authentic rights of the Palestinian people are tied to a comprehensive national stance, based on relevant international laws and resolutions, and will be addressed within a comprehensive Palestinian national framework in which Hamas will participate and bear full responsibility,” the organization said.
A separate report in the Wall Street Journal indicated that Hamas has expressed willingness to accept Trump’s plan but would refuse to disarm.
Meanwhile, Kan 11 News reported that officials in Israel estimate that Hamas’s response to Trump’s plan to end the war will lead to intensive negotiations aimed at reaching an agreement to end the war and secure the release of hostages.
The report further noted that Israeli officials involved in the negotiations believe Hamas will likely request additional time regarding the release of all hostages, which is expected to occur within 72 hours of signing the agreement proposed by President Trump.
Unlike the 20 living hostages held by Hamas and Islamic Jihad, whose locations are known to the terror organizations, Israel is preparing for the possibility that Hamas will demand more time or a withdrawal of IDF troops to facilitate the return of deceased hostages. A message to this effect was conveyed to Israel in recent days through mediators, according to Kan 11 News.
Hamas’s response was delivered hours after Trump threatened Hamas in a post on Truth Social.
“An Agreement must be reached with Hamas by Sunday Evening at SIX (6) P.M., Washington, D.C. time,” Trump wrote. “Every Country has signed on! If this last chance agreement is not reached, all hell, like no one has ever seen before, will break out against Hamas. There will be peace in the Middle East one way or the other.”
White House press secretary Karoline Leavitt later reiterated Trump’s ultimatum for Hamas to accept his Gaza peace proposal by Sunday, warning the terror group of “very grave” consequences if it does not accept.
