This is what happens when ignorance and arrogance refuse to acknowledge history, do a bit of homework, and understand the opponent.
President Trump, Steve Witkoff, and Jared Kushner, for being as accomplished and appearing as intelligent as they are, are among the most ignorant of people in dealing with any Islamist from any Islamic state.
It is clear they either refuse to believe history, refuse to believe the charters of every Islamic state, as well as refuse to believe the charter of Hamas, and are deluded in thinking they can somehow negotiate the desires of their heart, rather than the reality of the situation.
Perhaps Steve Witkoff and Jared Kushner should have read the Hamas charter — and believed it.
Inside Hamas: How It Thinks, Fights, and Governs – Combating Terrorism Center at West Point
Pay particular attention to:
- Article 6 says Hamas is a distinguished Palestinian movement whose allegiance is to Allah, with complete faith in and adherence to the Qur’an, and whose way of life is Islam.
- Article 11 says the land of Palestine is an Islamic Waqf (holy possession).
- Article 13 says Israel will exist until Islam obliterates it.
Later, Hamas added the following statement:
- Article 20 says Hamas rejects any alternative to the full and complete liberation of Palestine, from the river to the sea.
Islam is not a religion of peace. People who desire to coexist with Jews and Christians. Quite the opposite.
Tragically, President Trump, Steve Witkoff, Jared Kushner, Vice President J.D. Vance, and it appears the entire Trump Administration are unfamiliar with:
Taqiyya
The Islamic practice of lying and deceiving infidels, non-Islamists, in order to further the goals of Islam.
Taqiyya: Deception and Lying in Islam
Qatar, Saudi Arabia, UAE, Egypt, Turkey, Iran, Syria, Lebanon, Libya, Sudan…every Islamic state institutes TAQIYYA in dealing with Western leaders, non-Islamic people. The goal of Islam is world domination. They have been in a state of constant war with every non-Islamist culture they have encountered, biding their time, always believing they will prevail. They will either subdue and convert all non-Islamists — or enslave, or slaughter them.
But Western world leaders, Western people refuse to believe this.
Deluded.
Oh, so, so deluded. Even the so-called, so-thought-wise and intelligent. Only worldly wise, worldly intelligent, forsaking the truth and light, the clear instruction of the Holy Bible, of the One True God.
Do not be among the deceived, the deluded, the arrogant, and the ignorant.
There is no taming Islam. There is no peaceful coexistence with Islam. With the followers of the Qur’an and Muhammad. Who was a mere man, not a god, not a prophet, who began and continued as a thief, a murderer, an enslaver, a rapist, and built a world religion on militaristic precepts. Totally unlike any other world religion.
Yet, in the 21st century, highly educated in Western universities and colleges [perhaps that’s the problem], highly accomplished men and women are as ignorant regarding Islam, history, and why things are happening as they are as I am, probably you are, of how to build a time machine — in our garage, in our basement — and have it function.
It’s incredible the degree of blindness in so-called wise people these days in high places.
But then, when having a personal economic stake in many Islamic states, coupled with a pampered life of arrogance, refusing God, refusing Jesus, refusing the Holy Spirit, and refusing the Holy Bible, what are we to expect?
Just don’t get your expectations up, get all giddy, all hopeful about this eternal lasting peace in the Middle East that President Trump has gone on and on about.
Wishing doesn’t make it so. Trusting an Islamist is foolishness. Even if a secularist and not a born again disciple of the Lord Jesus Christ.
Why can’t people take a few minutes to learn the truth regarding Islam? You’d think a president, a Senator, a Representative, a diplomat, a negotiator, someone employed in a position in the White House, Congress, a think tank, a university, college, and so on, could take, oh, say, half an hour? An hour at most, and read and then believe — understand the scholarly works written revealing the truth of Islam.
Peace in the Middle East.
It isn’t happening. Until Jesus, Yeshua, returns a Second and Final time [after the seven-year tribulation and upon defeating the armies of the nations of the world, and destroying the Antichrist and his false prophet], setting His feet once more upon the Mount of Olives.

It Turns Out CIA’s Hamas Intel Briefs Were Way Off The Mark, Trump’s Peace Deal Negotiators Reveal
October 21, 2025
By Wallace White
Reprinted from The Daily Caller
The Central Intelligence Agency (CIA) provided U.S. Special Envoy Steve Witkoff and Middle East aide Jared Kushner intel that contradicted assessments of key mediators suggesting Hamas would agree to Trump’s peace deal, Witkoff said in an interview on “60 Minutes” Sunday.
Witkoff told “60 Minutes” correspondent Lesley Stahl that while mediators from Egypt, Qatar, and Turkey were expressing confidence to the U.S. that Hamas was ready to accept key concessions and agree to Trump’s deal, the CIA was providing intel reports that conveyed the opposite view. Despite the contradictory intel, Witkoff and Kushner pushed forward and ultimately got Hamas to agree to a ceasefire, freeing the remaining hostages and setting the stage for further negotiations on other parts of Trump’s proposal.
“We were getting, because of our relationships … we were hearing that Hamas was positive on the deal, and yet I was reading intelligence reports every day, and getting briefings from the CIA three times a day, and those intelligence briefings were suggesting that Hamas was going to say no.”
However, it remains unclear what evidence was behind the CIA’s contrary intel suggesting that Hamas would turn down the deal, or if the CIA believed Hamas would reject the plan in part or in full.
Hamas did seem to punt on certain provisions in Trump’s 20-point plan when they initially agreed to a deal on Oct. 3, saying they would need “Palestinian national consensus and Arab and Islamic support” to throw their weight behind the whole proposal.
“Jared and I had to make a decision as to where we thought this was going,” Witkoff continued. “And both of us, you know, we didn’t need to convince one another. We really felt that this was going in a positive way. And sure enough, Hamas came out and said, ‘We accept the president’s plan.’”
