This ‘Dangerous Nation’ Now Ready to Lay Down Arms

After nearly a year and a half of continuous bloodshed, hopes for a permanent ceasefire between Israel and Hamas are now gaining serious momentum. According to a recent report by a leading Saudi media outlet, Hamas is reportedly willing to accept several critical conditions — the most significant being complete disarmament.

This development comes as a major relief for Israel, as such flexibility has never been seen from Hamas before. The report suggests that Hamas is currently reviewing ceasefire proposals through mediators such as Egypt and Qatar. U.S. President Donald Trump also made a public appeal this past Tuesday, urging Hamas to agree to a 60-day ceasefire, stating that Israel is ready for the same.

U.S. Guarantee Attracts Hamas

Sources indicate that Hamas finds the American guarantee particularly appealing — the assurance that further negotiations to end the conflict will continue during the ceasefire period. Hamas has now begun internal deliberations with its national leadership regarding the proposal and has promised an official response soon.

Is Hamas Really Ready to Disarm?

Reports claim that Hamas is considering key conditions, including:

• Halting arms smuggling

• Shutting down weapons manufacturing facilities

• Surrendering its existing arsenal to a neutral party

Additionally, there are talks of exiling some symbolic leaders from Gaza to partially fulfill Israel’s demand that Hamas’s political and military presence be eliminated from the region.

Still Unwilling to Relinquish Control of Gaza

While Hamas seems open to disarmament, it remains adamant about retaining administrative control over Gaza. Israel has made it clear that Hamas will not be granted any administrative role in the region. In response, Hamas argues that it best understands the ground realities of Gaza and insists that it should remain responsible for security and law enforcement.

What Lies Ahead?

The world now awaits Hamas’s official response. If the proposal is accepted, it could mark a historic turning point toward ending a conflict that has raged for more than 18 months. The coming days will be crucial in determining the political future of the region — and perhaps more importantly, the fate of humanity in this long-suffering land.
