Fresh Air · How Trump’s Transactional Nature Led To The Ceasefire · 15 Oct 2025 podcast

So I think, yeah, I think that notion that this is something important to me and I'm going to pivot from acquiescing and enabling Benjamin Netanyahu in Gaza to constraining him.

I think the funding question is critically important.

There was a report I had read that we're talking about $70 billion dollars.

for the reconstruction.

Or maybe it's not even the reconstruction day.

Maybe it's, to use a different word, maybe it's the reconstitution of gossip, because I don't know how you reconstruct a situation in which 60 to 80 percent of the housing stock and residential commercial structures have been destroyed.

In order to have any chance of doing that,

you really have to deal with the politics and the security issues because you're going to need a stable, predictable environment in order to deliver, to move from humanitarian assistance delivered on an emergency basis to a organized, developed concept for reconstruction.

And that means three issues.

Number one,

How do you deal with the demilitarization, the decommissioning of Hamas's weapons?

Number two, who fills the security vacuum?

Hamas has deployed, what, several thousand policemen into areas from which the Israelis have, urban areas largely, from which the Israelis have redeployed.

That's Hamas in control.

But the 20-point plan talks about an international stabilization force composed, I would gather, from security forces from Arab and Muslim countries.

That's the second issue.

And the third, of course, is who or what is going to govern Gaza?

There's talk of a board of peace with Donald Trump as chairman and Tony Blair has been mentioned.

What about Palestinian representation?

There's talk of a technocratic government identifying Palestinians that have some degree of legitimacy and credibility.
