A “tense” weekend meeting between Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu and incoming Mideast envoy Steve Witkoff led to a breakthrough in the hostage negotiations, with the top aide to US President-elect Donald Trump doing more to sway the premier in a single sit-down than outgoing President Joe Biden did all year, two Arab officials told The Times of Israel on Tuesday.
Witkoff has been in Doha for the past week to take part in the hostage negotiations, as mediators try to secure a deal before Trump’s January 20 inauguration. On Saturday, Witkoff flew to Israel for a meeting with Netanyahu at the premier’s Jerusalem office.
During the meeting, Witkoff urged Netanyahu to accept key compromises necessary for an agreement, the two Arab officials on Monday told The Times of Israel on condition of anonymity. Neither Witkoff nor Netanyahu’s office responded to requests for comment.

Not exactly thinking this through with any depth when the fallout is cementing the greater genocidal administration.
Strange how Bibi and AIPAC wanted Trump to win. I’m shocked I tell ya.

Good sir/madam, I’m deflecting merely to the elephant in the room. Why focus on the little fish on the eve of the big fish entering office?
Let’s just see how good Trump is for Palestinians going forward ;)
Don’t forget to pat yourself on the back for this pyrrhic victory.
You realize how the law works, yes? If I kill 10000 people, I can’t say to the judge “BUT LOOK THAT OTHER GUY WAS PLANNING TO KILL EVEN MORE”.
Are you even human, I wonder. I really struggle to understand how someone with a mummy and a heart could stand so low in the scale of human decency. Are you that brainwashed you cannot recognize simple truth anymore? Funding extermination is bad. Do you understand?
