Even if the organization’s leadership structure is degraded, the ideology and resistance networks it represents don’t simply disappear because a peace plan says so.
Netanyahu’s enthusiastic endorsement of Trump’s plan should raise red flags.
But that attention should be grounded in realistic assessments of what’s achievable, not in the fantasy that the right American plan, announced at the right moment, will suddenly unlock a comprehensive peace that has eluded the region for generations.
Trump may be “beyond very close” to ending the war, but Washington has believed it was close to Middle East peace many times before.
