Trump and Netanyahu’s Bold Peace Deal Could Redefine the Middle East—If It Lands
In what could become one of the most monumental foreign policy victories in American history, a leaked report from Israel Hayom reveals that President Donald J. Trump and Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu are poised to achieve what decades of U.S. presidents only dreamed of: a historic peace framework in the Middle East.
The potential agreement, forged in the wake of the United States’ successful strike on Iranian nuclear facilities, marks a seismic shift in regional strategy. Sources close to the matter confirmed a high-level call took place between President Trump, Netanyahu, U.S. Secretary of State Marco Rubio, and Israeli Minister of Strategic Affairs Ron Dermer. The mood was described as “euphoric,” driven by the success of the Iran operation and a shared resolve to bring stability to Gaza.
According to Israel Hayom, the proposed deal outlines five core principles:
- Gaza hostilities will conclude within two weeks, ending conditions will encompass four Arab nations (including Egypt and the United Arab Emirates) to administer the Gaza Strip, replacing the murderous Hamas terrorist organization. The remaining Hamas leadership will face exile to other countries, while the hostages gain freedom.
- Multiple nations globally will accept numerous Gaza inhabitants seeking emigration.
- Abraham Accords expansion will bring Syria, Saudi Arabia, and additional Arab and Muslim countries to recognize Israel and establish official relationships.
- Israel will declare its willingness for future Palestinian conflict resolution under the “two states” concept, contingent upon the Palestinian Authority reforms.
- The United States will acknowledge limited Israeli sovereignty implementation in Judea and Samaria.
This is no generic peace proposal. It's a bold, Trump-style initiative that reasserts American leadership, protects Israeli sovereignty, and builds off the Abraham Accords rather than undermining them.
“Concurrently, two diplomatic sources informed Israel Hayom about substantial American presidential pressure on Prime Minister Netanyahu to conclude the Strip operations,” the outlet noted—pressure that reportedly began before either country’s retaliatory strike on Iran.
Even after a public disagreement between Trump and Netanyahu over ceasefire language earlier in the week, the deal appears to be holding strong. Both sides remain committed to the vision.
Here’s Why Conservatives Should Celebrate
First, the handover of Gaza to responsible Arab nations like the UAE and Egypt is perhaps the most pragmatic and effective outcome imaginable. These are stable governments with no interest in perpetuating conflict or allowing terror networks to flourish under their watch.
Second, allowing Gazans who wish to emigrate to do so, and having other countries absorb them, is a humane and strategic move. Rather than forcing millions to rebuild their lives in a conflict zone, they are given the chance to start anew elsewhere—something the West often preaches but rarely delivers.
Third, and most importantly, the expansion of the Abraham Accords is the crown jewel of Trump’s Middle East policy. Bringing in heavyweights like Saudi Arabia and even Syria signals an unprecedented regional acceptance of Israel’s right to exist—and thrive.
And Here’s Where Conservatives Should Remain Vigilant
The "two-state solution" remains a deeply flawed premise. For over 30 years, it’s been a diplomatic fantasy that’s yielded more bloodshed than peace. Conditioning it on Palestinian Authority reform is a step in the right direction—but reform in name only won’t cut it.
Then there’s the issue of sovereignty. Judea and Samaria—biblically and historically Jewish lands—are not merely bargaining chips. The Israeli people should never have to justify control over territory that was seized defensively during the Six-Day War.
Finally, while removing Hamas’ leadership from Gaza is a tactical win, exile is not eradication. Radical ideologies don't die when their leaders flee. They wait. And the West must ensure this terrorist infrastructure never returns under a different flag or name.
Conclusion
This deal has the potential to reshape the Middle East in a way that aligns with American strength, Israeli security, and regional stability. It’s not perfect—but it’s real. And unlike previous administrations that pushed toothless resolutions and pandered to terrorists, President Trump is leveraging American power to drive meaningful, enforceable change.
The world is watching. And once again, it’s President Trump taking the lead.
