Omar Baddar, a Palestinian-American political analyst based in Washington, DC, said it was difficult to assess at this point the likely Hamas response to the proposed Trump plan for Gaza. There are some good points in the plan, such as language excluding the possibility of annexation of Gaza and ethnic cleansing of its population by Israel. However, there was still a “poison pill” in the proposed deal, “which basically says that Israel gets to indefinitely occupy a so-called security perimeter inside Gaza, with no timeline for withdrawal and, basically, Israel gets to decide on its own when it might feel like leaving, which might, in fact, never happen,” Baddar said.
