Mark Hamill Shares Social Media Post Raising Eyebrows
It appears the Force is not with Mark Hamill when it comes to facts.
The Star Wars actor, known more in recent years for his social media tantrums than for anything cinematic, took to BlueSky this week to amplify a bizarre and historically baseless conspiracy theory: that President Donald Trump somehow “stole” a Middle East peace deal from Joe Biden. The meme Hamill reposted—with an enthusiastic “THIS” as endorsement—claims Biden had brokered the deal first, and that Trump and Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu deliberately sabotaged it to keep the war going until they could take credit for it.

Let’s pause here and look at the facts.
First, there’s no evidence—none—that the Biden administration laid the groundwork for the hostages-for-ceasefire deal that recently grabbed global headlines. If anything, the Biden team has been largely on the sidelines as regional trust in U.S. leadership has eroded under this administration. Israeli leadership, particularly Prime Minister Netanyahu, has had a notoriously frosty relationship with the Biden White House. Coordination between the two has been fraught with tension, not partnership.
Second, if this was really Biden’s deal, where was the White House when the actual negotiations took place? When the hostages were released? When Hamas finally blinked after months of global pressure and military attrition? The reality is that it was Trump’s stature and his previously built relationships—born out of the Abraham Accords and years of direct diplomacy—that re-opened diplomatic channels and put pressure on bad actors like Hamas.
Contrast that with Biden’s record: during his term, Hamas felt emboldened enough to launch the deadliest attack on Israel in decades. On October 7, 2023, more than 1,000 innocent people were massacred in Israel. If Hamas feared American leadership under Biden, they didn’t show it. Instead, they saw a White House mired in domestic politics, hesitant on foreign policy, and struggling to maintain relevance in a region that no longer trusted its commitments.
So for Hamill and the online echo chamber to suggest that Biden masterminded this deal behind the scenes—only to have it hijacked by Trump—isn’t just revisionist history. It’s pure fantasy. The kind that belongs in a galaxy far, far away.
The irony? While Mark Hamill is busy sharing memes, Trump is doing what actual leaders do: getting results. And the people paying the highest price—hostages, their families, and the civilians caught in the crossfire—aren’t looking for partisan memes. They’re looking for action. They’re looking for peace.
