Trump as usual supports the ethnic cleansers - Netanyahu and Putin
Land grabber and gangster "The Don".BBC 5 March 2025US President Donald Trump has issued what he called a "last warning" to Hamas to release the hostages being held in Gaza."I am sending Israel everything it needs to finish the job, not a single Hamas member will be safe if you don't do as I say," Trump said in a lengthy post on his Truth Social platform.Hamas accused the US president of encouraging Israel to break the ceasefire deal currently in effect between the two sides.Trump's statement came just hours after the White House confirmed it was holding direct talks with Hamas over the remaining hostages.Washington has until now avoided direct engagement with the group, and there is a longstanding US policy against having direct contact with entities it lists as terrorist organisations.In his social media post, Trump said there would be "hell to pay" if the hostages were not released, while not specifying the nature of the support he was sending Israel."Release all of the hostages now, not later, and immediately return all of the dead bodies of the people you murdered, or it is OVER for you," he added."For the leadership, now is the time to leave Gaza, while you still have a chance."He also appeared to issue a wider threat: "Also, to the People of Gaza: A beautiful Future awaits, but not if you hold Hostages. If you do, you are DEAD!"Hamas spokesman Hazem Qassem said in a statement that such threats "complicate matters regarding the ceasefire agreement and encourage the occupation [Israel] to avoid implementing its terms".It's not the first time Trump has threatened Hamas. In December, he said there would be "all hell to pay" if hostages were not released by the time he took office."Of course, Trump supports the big guys, as ever. He stops the arms supply and intelligence cooperation with Ukraine, but for Israel rather different treatment:"Feb 7 2025 (Reuters) - U.S. President Donald Trump's administration announced on Friday that it had approved military sales to Israel worth some $7.4 billion, despite a Democratic lawmakers' request that the sale be paused until he received more information.The Department of Defense announced that the State Department had approved a package for Israel worth an estimated $6.75 billion that included munitions, guidance kits and fuses with Boeing Co (BA.N), opens new tab among the principal contractors.It also detailed a deal estimated at $660 million to sell Hellfire Missiles to Israel in which Lockheed Martin (LMT.N), opens new tab would be the principal contractor."Producing the rubble foundations for TrumpGazaWorld and golf course. Must make poor little Israel safe.
