Trump's Hostage Deal Plan Won't End the Gaza War – and That's the Whole Point
Netanyahu sold Trump the conquest of Gaza City as a winning card in the endless war against Hamas, but there's no indication in the intelligence presented to the Security Cabinet that Hamas is close to collapsing and losing control in Gaza

Chaim Levinson, Haaretz, September 7, 2025

Now, the Americans are telling Hamas: Give up all the hostages, and we promise you the negotiations will be run seriously. Netanyahu doesn't have any interest in seriously negotiating to end the war. The opening conditions with which he repeatedly binds himself won't lead to a final deal. Netanyahu knows this, so he insists on them.

Very similar to their Ukraine negotiations. Demand a temporary ceasefire to get what they want, hostages for Israel and re-arm for Ukraine, and then continue the war.
