Very thoughtful, Dave. I think the only possible nit-pick I have with you is Trump's ability to get a veto-proof majority in Congress to override Biden --- AND, Biden has some "wiggle room" between a PUBLIC out and out cut-off and doing what he's doing now. I predict that he will get Netanyahu to agree to a temporary cease fire and Hamas will slow walk the release of hostages and that will create a momentum to not start up the war again. But of course this is an example of the "wish being father to the thought" and based on nothing more than hope. There is also the pressure inside Israel to make the hostages a higher priority than revenge.
