The Israeli government reportedly told the Biden administration Wednesday that its public pressure on Israel to seek a ceasefire is encouraging Palestinian terrorists to continue their attacks, making it harder to accept a ceasefire, and prolonging the war.
Trump left the U.S. in a position of historic strategic advantage. But like President Barack Obama, who squandered the gains of the Iraq “surge” and withdrew before the country was stable enough to prevent the rise of the terrorist “Islamic State,” Biden is throwing away many of the gains Trump achieved in the region.
Back in March, Alex Wagner of The Atlantic and The Circus wrote an op-ed that has nagged at me the last several weeks, as Joe Biden has called one “lid” after another. “Stay Alive, Joe Biden,” it was called. In it, she

The New York Times reported Thursday evening that President Donald Trump ordered air and naval strikes against Iranian targets in response to the shooting down of a U.S. Navy drone earlier that day, but canceled them “abruptly.”
If Israel’s military commanders are correct, and the next round of Hamas aggression is waiting around the corner, then Israel should use the coming weeks to prepare itself for an operation that will convince Hamas that it is wrong to view attacks on Israel as a means to ensure its economic survival.
The timing of Trump’s statement on the Golan Heights was less driven by politics and more a function of recent developments in Syria.

President Donald Trump is better placed than any of his potential opponents to broker compromises. He should propose deals, seize the moral high ground, and lead America back to success.
Dropping U.S. support for the Saudi war in Yemen might make politicians in Washington feel good about taking a stand for human rights. Yet doing so would also mean surrendering Yemen to Iranian control.
