    Trump immediately gets what he wants by putting the slightest pressure on Netanyahu

    It’s been 13 months. Netanyahu has achieved his war aims. He’s conceding nothing. Trump is just taking credit for nothing.

    this conflict is holding up initiatives his party wants (namely Saudi recognition of Israel into the Middle Eastern trading cartels)

    The Saudis and the Israelis are already in a de facto alliance, since both are opposed for their own reasons to the emergence of Arab democracy.
