` Trump talking to hamas is one tiny blip of disagreemnt. You are grasping on straws. While he talks to them he is tweeting that they will pay for it if they don’t listen. They even hinted on more american involvement. Look people weren’t so ahppy with the whole phase 1 deal that Trump forced upon israel. You will never credit him for that. But once you saw those hostages come home I think we all saw it was needed. It’s very convenient for bias perosn like you to find that one straw and blow it up vs seeing the big picture.

Re The Trump gaza plan you miss the point or rather I should say you chose to miss the point. Noone ever suggests it workable. But even you’ll admit in a perfect world it would be the idela plan. From logical perspective thats what sane people would do. Lets say i told you we are rebuilding the towns on LA hit by wildfires or a town hit by sandy. Would you let everyone hang out near the destruction with downed wires and polls or small fires still burning? You’d first nee to clear everyone out for safety. Then we you rebuild would you build in the same way? Some houses in real flood zones with unsafe land will never be rebuilt, others need to rebuilt differently and smarter. You just can’t guarantee that everyone gets their house back. .Now imagine that on top of the destruction you also have a society stuck in a cult like Jonestown who will go on killing spree and die rather than leave. Would you just rebuild Jonestown after a huraaicne or would you try to offer people in its a cult opportunity for a better furutre and to snap out of it?
Do we agree that in a perfect world we should be doing what Trump suggests? If you say no , you are just insane.

Now practically exactly as you say it, its not workable. because we are dealing with a cult of terror and crazy people. So whats the gain? It moves the needle and makes the world stop and think. It challenges Egyot while exposing Hamas charade . it further isolates Hamas. All reports are that the gulf states ditched the egypt summit and have no interest in contributing toward its rebuilding. Obviulsy the trump plan will never happen but it fianlly moves the neddle. How far? Who knows. But it moves it. Furthermore, it gives Israel more validlity as people see there are no two sides. There is a reason Hamas is livid with the trump plan. Don’t forget we aren’t looking to make “peace” with Hamas where you’ll argue such plans are not condusive with peace. Israel doesn’t want peace and its not safe to make peace. We are looking to eliimnate and isolate them a smuch as we can. Thats the only way forward. This does that.

Re your point about the money Israel gets. Thats silly. You & I know trump likes to line his own pockets first. He also likes his base. (I also thinks he genuinely respects jews and Jared but leave that aside). What comes out of the govt is not the same as what lines his own pockets and enriches him. That still comes forst by trump. And the pro Israel money lining his pockets are billions and billions.. Side note, This think that he cares so much about govt spending is a farce. trump is a fraud. last time around he spent like a drunken sailor. This is just the way the wind is blowing and for what he wants like his stupid border nonsense he is spending like a durnken sailor. Its all about what enriches trump. So he couldn’t;’t really care less about the USA dishing out money to Israel if its further himsef Meanwhile I don’t see anyone form Ukraine lining his pockets. its a good chance that the Ruskies are lining his pockets more. I am not saying that its just the donors that keep him supporting israel. Its also a principal where he think he hates arabs and is pro isarel. But the money helps a lot and keeps that going. And yes Ukriane was dumb and should have gotten some oligarchs to help him. Trump is indeed corrupt. And so no trump won’t flip on Israel bec he likes himself too much.

All in all, I agree with you that Trump’s polices are horrible and destructive. The man is also morally corrupt with every name in the book. But at the same time its also true that his approach to Israel is very very crucial and important. I think you only deny that because you are bias and it leads to intellectual dishonesty. Its very hard to admit that such a morally corrupt destructive man can be good for jews and israel. you don’t want to believe it and thereffore you wash away the obvious thats staring at you in the face. During these life and death moments which are pivotal for israel, this should override all the other negatives.
