Israeli political analyst Ori Goldberg says “sticking points” over how to implement the future stages of Trump’s Gaza plan are predictable, given that both Israel and Hamas have effectively been forced into it. “This isn’t even really a deal,” but more of a “superimposed arrangement” that the two sides have been forced into by the US and Middle East powers, Goldberg told Al Jazeera. “This is almost all sticking points and very little secure arrangements that can proceed gradually. Most egregiously, the Palestinians are not a part of this deal unless it is through semi-covert negotiations with Hamas. They are not heard. Their interests are not adequately represented,” he added.
