Trump gives Hamas '3 or 4 days' to agree to White House proposal or face a 'sad end'
Source: Politico
President Donald Trump on Tuesday said he would give Hamas three or four days to respond to his proposal to end the nearly two-year-long war in Gaza.
The president released a 20-point plan Monday during a joint press conference with Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu, who has already agreed. It calls for Hamas to disarm, return all the hostages within 72 hours and relinquish control of power.
A diplomat briefed on the matter and granted anonymity to describe the sensitive situation said Qatari and Egyptian officials presented Hamas negotiators with the proposal but there was no timeline for a Hamas response. The negotiators need to communicate it with people in Gaza, the diplomat said, which could take hours or days, depending on the situation on the ground.
Trump on Tuesday told reporters outside the White House the U.S.-designated terrorist group has not much room to negotiate.

Same strategy as the one Repubs in Congress are using with their spending bill. They gave our Dems an offer they couldn't accept. Now they are, of course, blaming the Dems for the government shut down.
Hang tough, Dems. Do not fold.
