Can Hamas really be trusted to disarm or is the latest peace plan setting Israel up for the same mistake all over again?
This week on Israel Undiplomatic, Mark Regev and Ruthie Blum dissect President Trump's announcement of a landmark Hamas disarmament agreement and explain why Israeli officials remain deeply skeptical. They explore the conditions behind the proposed deal, the debate over Israel's military presence in Gaza, the role of international mediators and whether any future Palestinian governing authority can truly prevent terrorism from returning. The conversation also examines the long-term challenge of deradicalization and the competing narratives surrounding Israel's legitimacy and the conflict itself.
