Trump: Hamas will be ‘blown away very quickly’ if it doesn’t disarm in coming weeks

If Hamas does not disarm soon, the terrorist group will be “blown away very quickly,” US President Donald Trump declared in a wide ranging speech on Wednesday at the World Economic Forum in Davos, Switzerland.

“We have peace in the Middle East,” he claimed.

“There are some little situations like Hamas, and Hamas has agreed to give up their weapons,” he asserted, though the Palestinian terror organization has publicly stated it will not disarm.

“They were born with a weapon in their hand, so it’s not easy to do,” Trump said.

“That’s what they’ve agreed to, they’re going to do it,” the American leader promised. “And we’re going to know over the next two-three days, certainly the next three weeks, whether or not they’re going to do it.”

“If they don’t do it, they’ll be blown away very quickly,” he warned.

Trump reiterated his claim that many of the “59 countries” interested in participating in the yet-to-be-established International Stabilization Force in Gaza “want to come in and take out Hamas. They want to do whatever they can.”
