And as widely suspected, the truth comes out from the horse's mouth.

Netanyahu refused full Gaza withdrawal hours after Trump meeting

Hours after appearing with Trump to unveil the 20-point plan to end the genocidal war on Gaza, Netanyahu told Hebrew-speaking audiences that he has no intention of pulling Israeli troops from Gaza.

“No way, that’s not happening,” he said in a video posted on his personal X account.

He told his audience that Israel had turned the tables on Hamas by rallying Arab and Muslim states to pressure the group to accept Israel’s conditions – the release of captives while Israeli forces stay in most of Gaza.

According to the Times of Israel, Netanyahu also secured key edits to Trump’s plan, slowing and limiting any withdrawal to ensure Israeli forces retain control over large swaths of the enclave.

Israel media report government ruling out changes to Trump’s plan

Israeli media is quoting Foreign Minister Gideon Saar as saying that any amendment to the plan presented by Trump means its rejection.

Another government official quoted by Channel 15 said the plan presented in Washington, DC, is not up for negotiation but for acceptance or rejection.

It's not a plan, it's an ultimatum for surrender to indefinite occupation. 



‘Not our document’: Pakistan deputy PM on Trump’s Gaza proposal

Just hours after Trump presented his proposal to end the war in Gaza, Pakistan, one of several countries whose leaders spoke to the US president about it on the sidelines of the UN General Assembly last week, seemed to distance itself from the plan.

“This is not our document which we sent to them,” Pakistani Deputy Prime Minister Ishaq Dar said at a news conference in the capital, Islamabad. “There are some key areas that we want covered. … If they are not covered, they will be covered.

“The document has been issued by the US.”

Earlier, Pakistani Prime Minister Shehbaz Sharif tweeted his agreement to the plan presented by Trump at the White House on Monday.

“I welcome President Trump’s 20-point plan to ensure an end to the war in Gaza,” Sharif had said on X. “It is also my firm belief that President Trump is fully prepared to assist in whatever way necessary to make this extremely important and urgent understanding to become a reality.”
