Israel Draws the Line: No Peace Without Hamas DisarmamentAs Trump pushes for a stabilization force in Gaza, Israel warns it won't tolerate a halfway deal.
"Hamas must be disarmed. Gaza must be demilitarized," Sa'ar said during a joint press conference in New Delhi with Indian Foreign Minister Subrahmanyam Jaishankar. "The eradication of the Hamas terror state is at the heart of President Trump's plan." Jerusalem's top diplomat emphasized that Israel will not compromise, even as allied nations express reluctance to take part in the plan's enforcement. "Radical terror states" in Gaza, Lebanon, and Yemen must be "uprooted to ensure regional security," Sa'ar added. India, for its part, offered full-throated solidarity. "Radical terror is a mutual threat to Israel and India," Sa'ar noted, thanking Indian Prime Minister Narendra Modi for being among the first world leaders to call Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu after the October 7 massacre. Jaishankar echoed the sentiment. "We face a particular challenge from terror," he said. "It is essential that we work towards ensuring a global approach of zero tolerance." He also welcomed the return of hostages and the bodies of those murdered in Hamas captivity, describing the ordeal as one India followed "with very close attention." The Modi government, he confirmed, backs the Trump peace plan and "hopes it paves the way for a durable and lasting solution." But if India is leaning in, others are stepping back. Last month, Jordan's King Abdullah II told the BBC that enforcing Hamas' disarmament—particularly through boots-on-the-ground patrols in Gaza—was a role no country wanted. "If we're running around Gaza on patrol with weapons, that's not a situation that any country would like to get involved in," Abdullah said bluntly. A recent New York Times report corroborated the concern, citing officials from several countries indicating they will not send troops to confront Hamas fighters directly. Yet that's exactly what the US-led plan would require. A leaked draft of a forthcoming UN Security Council resolution, obtained by Axios, outlines the goals of the proposed International Stabilization Force (ISF). The force would be tasked with:
Additionally, the ISF would secure Gaza's borders, protect humanitarian corridors, and train a new Palestinian police force to take over long-term security. Washington is aiming for a January deployment, but the sticking point remains the same: Who will do the disarming? And will they be allowed to enforce it? For Israel, the answer is simple: Any deal that leaves Hamas armed is no deal at all. Subscribe for free to Breaking Christian News here Analysis: Israel is done with illusions. The old model—where terrorist regimes were tolerated as local administrators—is no longer acceptable. Jerusalem has made clear that full disarmament is non-negotiable, and the international community will soon have to choose: either back the words of the peace plan with force, or abandon it altogether.
