The View Lauds Trump Peace Deal: Historic, Massive Diplomatic Achievement'

"Listen, if this peace deal holds, which I pray that it does, it's historic it is a massive diplomatic achievement and I think the whole world can breathe a sigh of relief, she said. She continued: There's not a Jew across the world who didn't feel personally impacted by the events of October 7th. And these 20 that were released never knowing if they would get that day. There's also the remains of hostages that are going to be repatriated to Israel."

"And then for the innocent Palestinians who have been caught in the crossfire of this war that Hamas, a terrorist organization, started, they are getting aid. They're promised 600 trucks of food per day are going to be rolling into Gaza so people who have been starving, who have had no reason that they should have been involved in this conflict are going to get the aid they need. I think everyone should be able to celebrate it."

"And listen, whether you like Trump or not, I think he, Steve Witkoff, and I think Jared Kushner do deserve credit for this deal. They personally met with Hamas. I used to be of the mind we don't negotiate with terrorists but sometimes the only way to get peace is to sit down with some of the most evil people and try to come up with what we can do to end the bloodshed."

"The winners are now all the families, Whoopi Goldberg added. All the families who get to come home, all the families who are gathering their people to them. That's the win. So, yeah, let's hope, like Walter Cronkite used to say when I was little on Christmas Eve, he would say, Tonight there is peace in the world.' So, right now we're saying today, tonight, there is peace in the world."

A peace deal produced the release of 20 hostages and the repatriation of remains to Israel. Plans include 600 trucks of food per day delivering aid to Gaza to assist innocent Palestinians caught in the crossfire. Credit for negotiating with Hamas was attributed to Donald Trump, Steve Witkoff, and Jared Kushner for personally meeting with Hamas despite prior resistance to negotiating with terrorists. The deal frames negotiations with violent actors as sometimes necessary to end bloodshed. Families of released hostages are celebrated as winners and there is expressed hope the ceasefire, prisoner repatriations, and humanitarian provisions will hold.
