Trump names former Abraham Accords negotiator as top hostages official

Good news! Very symbolic move by Donald Trump!

Perhaps, he will negotiate that Egypt, Saudi Arabia and Israel will jointly administer the Gaza Strip for a transition period and keep the terrorists out.

"President Donald Trump named Adam Boehler, who helped broker the Abraham Accords normalization agreements between Israel and four Arab states, as his top hostage negotiator.

The announcement comes two days after Trump threatened “all hell to pay” in the Middle East unless the Israeli hostages held in Gaza are released by the time Trump assumes the presidency on Jan. 20.

“I am pleased to announce that Adam Boehler will be my Special Presidential Envoy for Hostage Affairs, with the personal rank of Ambassador,” Trump said in a statement Wednesday he posted to the social media site he owns, Truth Social. “Adam worked for me as a Lead Negotiator on the Abraham Accords team. He has negotiated with some of the toughest people in the World, including the Taliban, but Adam knows that NO ONE is tougher than the United States of America, at least when President Trump is its Leader. Adam will work tirelessly to bring our Great American Citizens HOME.”

Boehler, 43, is Jewish and lives in Nashville, Tennessee, where he runs a health care investment firm and his family belongs to a Reform synagogue. ..."
