Yes, it is right to be cautiously optimistic that Hamas says they will release all hostages for what the Trump plan says. Yes, Hamas is irreconcilable. But the 19 other parts to the Trump plan are the recipe for peace. We'll see. NewsNation Christopher C. Cuomo with Moshe Emilio Lavi

Here's where things stand two years after the October 7 Massacre. Israel wants to end the war with all the hostages home and Hamas disarmed so it can never carry out its threat to perpetrate October 7 "again and again." Israel has said repeatedly since the October 7 Massacre, the war ends immediately if those conditions are met. It's not too much to ask for. President Trump has proposed a 20-point plan to end the war. That plan requires Hamas to free all the hostages within 72 hours for a massive ransom, places Gaza under Palestinian technocratic governance with international oversight, and the IDF withdraws in a schedule linked to Gaza's demilitarization. If Hamas rejects this, Israel has the US' backing to obliterate Hamas and finish the job. Israel said YES to President Trump's peace plan, giving diplomacy a chance: it prefers to do this the easy way. Hamas did NOT say yes. Under pressure, apparently, from its state sponsors, it agreed to talk about it, even though Trump said there's little to talk about. Now Hamas is trying to wriggle out of the Trump plan or totally gut it, to survive the war still holding its weapons—and with a massive popularity boost among Palestinians. It's reportedly demanding the release of terrorist masterminds responsible for some of the most spectacular Palestinian terror attacks: a ransom Israel simply cannot pay. It does not want a permanent ceasefire. Its statement marking two years since the October 7 Massacre said its goal is the conquest of Jerusalem. Of course Hamas does not want the Trump plan. It's not a plan for peace WITH Hamas, but for peace WITHOUT Hamas. It's not a ceasefire, but the terms of Hamas' surrender. Hamas' goal is to emerge victorious from the war it started, as Palestinian national heroes. The ones who freed prisoners from Israeli jails, turned the world against Israel, and can still wave AK47s in protest. It wants to take over the whole Palestinian movement, and it's on course to do it now. It can't accept demilitarization or deradicalization. Now is the time for PRESSURE on Hamas' state sponsors to tell it: game's up. Accept the Trump plan. In full. We won't let you wriggle out of it. You started the war. Now you end it. 📺I joined NewsNation to discuss:
