Join Bryan Dean Wright, former CIA Operations Officer, as he dives into today’s top stories shaping America and the world. In this special edition of The Wright Report, Bryan delivers a breaking update on peace in the Middle East — as Israel and Hamas accept President Trump’s peace plan.
From the release of hostages to a new path toward Arab-Israeli reconciliation, today’s report covers the facts, intelligence insights, and listener questions on what this historic moment means for the world.
Trump Announces Peace Deal Between Israel and Hamas:
President Trump revealed that Israel and Hamas have both signed on to Phase One of his 20-point peace plan, with help from Egypt, Qatar, and Turkey. “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,” he said. The agreement includes a ceasefire, the release of approximately 20 surviving hostages, and Israel’s withdrawal to key defensive lines.
Prisoner Exchange and Humanitarian Aid:
Israel will release about 2,000 Palestinian prisoners within 48 hours while Hamas returns the living hostages. The bodies of 28 murdered captives, including two Thai citizens, remain withheld. In exchange for disarmament and the entry of humanitarian aid, Gaza will move toward a transitional governance phase under international oversight.
The Road Ahead — Hamas Must Go:
Phase Two of the plan requires Hamas to disarm and give up control of Gaza. Trump’s decision to pledge U.S. military defense to Qatar — a key Hamas ally — may have been part of a broader deal to pressure the group’s leadership and expand the Abraham Accords. “We gave them something massive so Trump could get something massive in return,” Bryan explains.
Listener Q&A on the Peace Process:
Bryan answers listener questions about why hostages are being released slowly, why Hamas might accept defeat, and why this peace effort may succeed where others failed. He describes a Middle East transformed: Iran weakened, Hezbollah diminished, Syria and Lebanon reshaped, and Gulf nations eager for modernization.
Intelligence Services at Work:
Mossad, the CIA, MI6, and Arab agencies are already recruiting informants and installing surveillance systems to stabilize Gaza. Bryan explains how spies will penetrate interim governments, military forces, and communication networks as Gaza transitions to a monitored peace.
Challenges Ahead — Extremism on Both Sides:
Bryan warns that both Palestinian and Israeli extremists could attempt to sabotage the deal, but Trump’s leverage with Arab governments makes large-scale rebellion unlikely.
What It Means for America:
A lasting peace could allow U.S. forces to withdraw from the Middle East, focus on China and Latin America, and enable the deportation of radicalized Palestinians and Islamists from the U.S. and Europe. “If this holds,” Bryan says, “it’s good for Israel, good for Arabs, and good for us. Bravo, Mr. President.”
