There's a shit ton of liberal denial on this. Trump did make it happen. Not because Netenyahu bent the knee to Trump. But because Trump bullied Netenyahu. And had Biden not been a psychopath, he could have picked up the phone and stopped the senseless slaughter of Palestinians on day one.

This is not to say that things are still going to be extremely bleak for Palestinians in the West Bank and Gaza but Democrats fumbled the ball on this and ensured themselves a loss.

He didn't bully him, he made him a deal he couldnt refuse with the greenlight to go full steam ahead on the west bank and return to gaza once the heats died down

Lol, as if Biden was stopping them from doing anything in West Bank. They don't need a "green light", they've had it for decades
