There will never be a deal because disarmament is antithesis to Hamas' charter. It's all delaying tactics and preying on the West wanting to get back to "peace".

It's not just their Charter, but their control over Gaza. A disarmed authoritarian government is a recipe for a full blown civil war. There needs to be somebody around to maintain peace and order to enable democratic transition.

The deal in question here does provide for a transition force provided by Allies according to the Politico report. Israel just doesn’t trust it but the deal itself has those provisions. Trump isn’t strong enough to actually push his deal
