    There was a branch in this thread where someone else made the accusation. But fine, I retract the statement. It wasn’t your words, so no point bringing it up.

    I find the request for impossible evidence to be absurd. Since the US did not take the measures you proposed 2 months ago, there is no evidence to present for either of our sides.

    I point to Netanyahu’s recent and past decisions and complete unwillingness to make concessions, as well as how this conflict has been beneficial to his standing.

    But obviously, we can’t know for sure what would have happened. But Isreal has never been known to be easily forced, or even compromise to anything not vastly in their favor.

      All of which has been done because U.S. aid has been given unconditionally this entire time, which was my point. The U.S. has leverage and isn’t using it.

        And your proof that using that leverage will achieve the desired result in a 2 month time frame is…?
