The ‘deal guys’: How two New York real estate bare-knuckle brawlers pulled off Trump’s Gaza peace dream… from Miami

President Donald Trump’s historic peace deal between Israel and Hamas was signed at a Miami mansion 1,000 miles from the halls of power in Washington, D.C.

Trump’s son-in-law, Jared Kushner, was at his $32.2 million home in Miami’s Indian Creek, often referred to as the ‘Billionaire Bunker’, when he learned that Hamas was open to releasing Israeli hostages held captive since the October 7 attacks.

After participating in weeks of intense, high-stakes negotiations with all the major players in the war, Kushner knew it was time to act.

He immediately set out for Sunset Island, a 20-minute drive; It was where real estate developer-turned-Trump administration negotiator Steve Witkoff lived.

The duo turned Witkoff’s $19 million home, which he bought in 2019, into a wealthy Florida enclave into a diplomatic command center, securing an uneasy peace in the Middle East and handing Trump a historic political victory.

From their Florida bunker, the duo received and received calls from stakeholders and key figures in the deal, including Trump himself and cabinet members of the Israeli government.

To talk New York TimesKushner said his priority is to persuade Israel to consider the positive aspects of Hamas’ statement, rather than focusing on how far they must go to achieve lasting peace.

‘Steve and I said to Israel, ‘We encourage you to be positive too,’ he said.

Hamas has agreed to talks to release the hostages but has not yet stated its position on giving up its weapons or political control of Gaza.

Just hours after Witkoff and Kushner’s message reached Israel, Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu agreed to launch phase one of Trump’s broader peace plan.

Once the plan was in place, Kushner and Witkoff boarded a plane to Egypt, and during the flight they discussed the ways the deal could still go bad and the methods they would use to save it.

A management person with knowledge of the deal told the Daily Mail it would be ‘impossible’ to determine these final details without being in the Middle East.

It was 6.30am on Wednesday morning when they arrived in Egypt. They immediately engaged in high-stakes negotiations and reached an agreement around 2.30am.

Witkoff and Kushner sensed a shift towards the middle on both sides, despite running between the two on ‘about five hours of sleep in three days’.

‘[They] It’s starting to feel like everyone is moving to a middle ground where there’s an agreement here, the insider said.

‘This has become a really dark cloud over the Middle East and I think everyone is very excited to move forward.’

Kushner, a real estate developer who cut his teeth in New York, compared the back-and-forth in global negotiations to his work in the city.

‘TThere is a lot to negotiate before you get the contract and deposit any money. “I think we’re used to complex deals that are quite dynamic and also have complex characters,” he said.

‘The experience that Steve and I agree on is that you have to understand people. You need to be able to sort of draw conclusions from those and then see who you think is making plays and how much room you have to push things.’

Trump confirmed the deal had been accepted in a Truth Social post on Wednesday night, writing: ‘Israel will withdraw its Soldiers to an agreed upon line as the first steps towards a Strong, Durable and Everlasting Peace.

‘All Parties will be treated fairly! This is a BIG Day for the Arab and Muslim World, Israel, all surrounding Nations, and the United States of America, and we thank the mediators in Qatar, Egypt, and Türkiye who worked with us to bring about this Historic and Unprecedented Event. ‘Blessed are the peacemakers!’

Embers It has been confirmed that the remaining hostages, believed to be around 20 survivors, will be released to Israel on Monday or Tuesday.

“I’ll be there,” Trump said during his meeting with the Finnish Prime Minister in the Oval Office. This came just hours after Hamas declared the war was over.

‘get them [the hostages] It is a complex process. I’d rather not tell you what they have to do to get them. There are places you don’t want to be.’

President Donald Trump’s historic peace deal between Israel and Hamas was signed at a Miami mansion 1,000 miles from the halls of power in Washington, D.C.

The peace agreement was celebrated around the world, especially in Palestine, where children suffered throughout the war

Hamas’ chief negotiator Khalil al-Hayya had previously said: ‘We have received assurances from sister mediators and the US administration who confirm that the war is completely over.’

He promised to release 250 Palestinians serving life sentences in Israel and 1,700 Palestinians from Gaza who have been detained since the start of the war.

Hamas killed approximately 1,200 people in its ambush against Israel on October 7 and took approximately 250 hostages in the process.

Since then, more than 67,000 Palestinians have been killed in the ongoing war and efforts to release hostages from Gaza.

After the deal was made, Witkoff and Kushner flew from Egypt to Jerusalem to attend a cabinet meeting with Israeli officials.

A source with knowledge of the meeting said they were greeted with mass applause.

‘Everyone started clapping… I think they were acknowledging that they were the President’s ambassador,’ the insider said.

‘Trump is very popular in the state of Israel for all the obvious reasons.’

Steve Witkoff is working tirelessly to secure the deal with Kushner’s help

Details of the meeting were leaked Jerusalem Post He noted that even when they arrived in Israel, all was not well for Witkoff and Kushner.

They were met with fierce opposition from National Security Minister Itamar Ben-Gvir, a right-winger who strongly opposed the deal the duo had worked tirelessly to secure.

Ben-Gvir claimed that there were ‘baby killers’ and ‘woman rapists’ among the Palestinians they detained, and noted that the USA would never release prisoners detained with similar convictions.

He said peace with Hamas was “impossible” and asked the duo: “Would you make peace with Hitler?” Hamas is Hitler. ‘They want to kill us.’

Witkoff allegedly responded by sharing the story of the moment he chose to forgive a drug dealer for causing the death of his 22-year-old son in 2011.

According to the publication, he shared that he saw the drug dealer’s parents in court and chose to forgive at that moment.

‘Mr. Witkoff, this is the difference: Those who killed us on October 7 are not asking for forgiveness. Their families are proud of it. They want to kill the Jews,’ Ben-Gvir replied.

How will Trump’s peace deal evolve after both Israel and Hamas agree to the terms?

Kushner argued that the agreement ‘encourages actors in the Arab world to maintain peace’. [and] It ensures Israel’s security.

‘If we have to use force, we will. ‘This will either be the easy way or the hard way.’

The father of three was relieved to return home to his wife, Ivanka Trump, and his family after the agreement.

After being at the forefront of political life during Trump’s first term, the duo decided to take a less integral role in Trump’s administration this time.

‘He will always be there to help those who serve, especially in the quest for peace,’ the insider said.
