Trump has been in office for nearly 9 months and Israel & Gaza now have ceasefire that Biden pushed over a year ago but Israel spiked because Trump promised them time & resources to continue their war, to continue the killing. I idea that this some sort of triumph for Trump or Netanyahu is insane.

Told @abc that for Trump's plan to work, he has to break with the pattern of the past and SUSTAIN pressure on Israel. We cannot wait to see if Israel will uphold its end of the deal - Trump needs to use US leverage to make sure that they do. But will he?

“The trigger was this massive overreach by the Israelis by attacking Qatar and other U.S. partners in the region,” Parsi said. The White House “decided that they needed to take some sort of initiative — they needed to stop Netanyahu.”

Did Qatari Money Drive Trump’s Push for Gaza Ceasefire?

Trump’s stance on Gaza shifted after Israel’s attack on Qatar — a close ally where he and his family have key business deals.

What a joke! Put aside Ukraine and the Middle East, just contemplate the potentially devastating implications of China's latest move on rare minerals to counter Trump's tariff war.

On NYT Home Page there's a Douthat column w/the headline "Trump's Foreign Policy is Succeeding. He Should Apply It's Lessons at Home." On what planet? Betraying our allies. Blowing up the global trading system. Embracing autocrats. Pulling back support for Ukraine. Helping to support Gaza slaughter.
