Alabama’s Republican congressional delegation is lauding the agreement between Israel and Hamas to end the war in Gaza.
Israel began it’s war against the terrorists in Gaza after over 1,200 people brutally killed by Hamas in Israel on October 7th, 2023.
“I am very proud to announce that Israel and Hamas have both signed off on the first Phase of our Peace Plan,” Trump said on Truth Social Wednesday.
“This means that ALL of the Hostages will be released very soon, and Israel will withdraw their Troops to an agreed upon line as the first steps toward a Strong, Durable, and Everlasting Peace. All Parties will be treated fairly! This is a GREAT Day for the Arab and Muslim World, Israel, all surrounding Nations, and the United States of America, and we thank the mediators from Qatar, Egypt, and Turkey, who worked with us to make this Historic and Unprecedented Event happen. BLESSED ARE THE PEACEMAKERS!”
U.S. Rep. Mike Rogers (R-Saks) who chairs the House Armed Services Committee, celebrated the deal during an appearance on Newsmax Thursday.
“I do want to remind everybody, this is the first phase that everybody’s agreed to, which is a bigger step than anybody else besides President Trump has been able to achieve,” Rogers said. “But we still have to close the rest of these items. You know, he had a 20 point plan, and I’m very optimistic about us getting the full package complete, but this has really been a very encouraging turn of events.”
U.S. Sen. Katie Britt (R-Montgomery) called this an “incredible first step.”
U.S. Sen. Tommy Tuberville (R-Auburn) said Trump should get the Nobel Peace Prize for this accomplishment.
U.S. Rep. Robert Aderholt (R-Haleyville) said, “This is great news.”
U.S. Rep. Barry Moore (R-Enterprise) said this deal is “historic.”
U.S. Rep. Gary Palmer (R-Hoover) said this proves that Trump is again a “peace maker.”
