Egypt peace summit 

showed that Donald Trump’s Gaza deal 

is more showbiz extravaganza 

than the ‘dawn of a new Middle East’

The Conversation 10/14/25

"Following the Middle East summit in Sharm el-Sheikh, Donald Trump’s Gaza ceasefire deal has been compared in the media to the Good Friday agreement which brought an end to the conflict in Northern Ireland and the Dayton accords which achieved a (so far) lasting peace in the Balkans. The fact is that Trump’s deal differs significantly from both.

"It is largely imposed from the outside. 

It’s highly transactional in nature. 

And it lacks a clear blueprint 

as to what happens next."

"What has been agreed 

between Israel and Hamas 

is an end to the fighting 

and the release 

of prisoners and hostages. 

But serious obstacles remain. 

The disarmament of Hamas 

is by no means a done deal 

(in fact it looks less likely by the day)."

(Anybody that thinks Hamas is going to disarm?

Is completely delusional.)

"Meanwhile 

the withdrawal of Israeli troops from Gaza 

also looks to be a non-starter 

and the plan’s text 

remains very vague 

as to the extent t

he Israel Defense Forces 

will move out of Gaza, 

if at all. 

Questions of governance,

 the agreement of a process 

towards a Palestinian state 

and the cost of reconstruction 

have yet to be resolved."

("Well that sounds like its gonna work Bob."

"Yeah I though so too Jim.

Sarcasm

the highest form of humor.)

"But the most important hurdle in the way of this ceasefire deal holding firm is the profound lack of trust between the parties."

"Set against these obstacles, the ceasefire and return of the hostages and release of Palestinian prisoners, momentous though these two things have been, represent the low-hanging fruit of any end to the conflict. They should be seen as the first steps on a difficult and uncertain diplomatic path that has been characterised by decades of setbacks and political failure."

"By contrast the Dayton and Northern Ireland peace processes that led to 

those agreements 

were painstakingly negotiated 

between all the parties in advance 

through detailed diplomacy 

and resulted in 

complex power-sharing arrangements. 

They were guaranteed 

by intricate governing structures 

that addressed the long-standing 

sectarian divisions 

through detailed 

constitutional changes 

and new institutions."

"Aspiration is not agreement

"No such details are part of “The Trump Declaration for Enduring Peace and Prosperity”. 

This, it turns out, is a 

462-word document 

signed in Egypt 

by a hastily arranged group 

of international leaders 

that notably did not include 

representatives from Hamas or Israel."

(462 words.

I could have wrote it in under five minutes.

And I cant type that great lol.

How in the hell does:

"that notably 

did not include 

representatives 

from Hamas or Israel."

Get overlooked

??????????

Propaganda over here 

like it's VE-Day

or something.

And we weren't 

even at war.)

"Given how tentative 

the peace agreement is and the fact that

October’s ceasefire 

looks remarkably similar 

to that which was agreed 

and then breached in January 2025, 

why is this being treated with such fanfare?

(Why are all those air 

tankers there again?

"October’s ceasefire 

looks remarkably similar 

to that which was agreed 

and then breached

in January 2025"

Meanwhile, back at the ranch so to speak...

 

US Deploys Military Assets to Middle East: 

What We Know

Newsweek 10/01/25

"A massive wave of U.S. Air Force KC-135 Stratotankers has moved into the Middle East, marking one of the largest aerial refueling deployments in recent months. Flight tracking shows aircraft departing from Atlantic bases and converging on Al Udeid Air Base in Qatar, headquarters of U.S. Central Command.")

"The more it is hyped 

as part of this theatre..."

(“Donald Trump is not something new,” 

Curtis tells me, calling him 

“the final pantomime product”  

of the US government.")

"the more violators 

might reap 

the wrath 

of a president who felt 

his achievement and chances 

of a Nobel peace prize 

had been undermined.

(That is the first time I have seen that word used when talking about The False Prophet. Satan's wrath is poured out through out the seven year tribulation period along with God's wrath in the second.)

"The French president, Emmanuel Macron, UK prime minister, Keir Starmer and Canada’s Mark Carney might be forgiven for 

wondering why their presence 

was required as extras 

in this performative political theatre.

(That is literally

all this was.

"performative political theatre."

Honey would start to tell me

something and I would be like 

Stop!

Lol.

I don't wanna hear it

its all irrelevant etc. lol.

Its a laugh a minute over here

it really is.)

"The presence in Sharm el Sheikh 

(Check it out, pretty cool.)

of Hungary’s Victor Orban 

added to the impression 

that Trump had gathered 

what he considers his fan club 

to Egypt."

(I didn't see much

but from what I did see?

Trump looked a lot happier 

than the others did that's for sure.)
