How Bibi turned Trump away
Cowardice has repercussions
Donald Trump has gone full Qatari. He’s sold out to evil scumbag jihadis. Rich evil scumbag jihadis.
And I’m going to say that while a lot of the blame for that lays at the feet of people like Barrack and Kushner and Witkoff, a huge amount, maybe the lion’s share, is attributable to Binyamin Netanyahu.
Trump loves money, no doubt. But he has a moral center, and a simple view of life, where good is good, and evil is evil. And he looked at Israel and saw the obvious fact that Israel was on the side of good and the PalNazis were on the side of evil. He saw right through all the propaganda, like it wasn’t even there.
And he essentially gave Israel carte blanche to end the war. To end the conflict. He told us to go ahead and kick all of the Gazans out and incorporate the Gaza Strip into the rest of Israel. In no uncertain terms. No vagueness, and no weasel words. Not like a politician, but like a man.
And Netanyahu refused to do it.
This puzzled the hell out of Donald Trump. It made no sense. He literally said, at one point, “It’s crazy. It’s like they don’t want to win.”
Donald Trump has no patience for losers. He never has. No respect for them, either. So he simply moved on. If he couldn’t count on Israel, who could he count on? The three strongest players in the Middle East after Israel are Iran, Saudi Arabia, and Qatar. Iran is too erratic, and they hate America like poison. Saudi Arabia has been trying to have their cake and eat it too for years. They waffle. And their entire foreign policy is one heartbeat away from possible major changes.
That left Qatar. With an iron will and a sense of determination that appeals to Trump. Even if it’s misdirected. Even if it’s evil, because he has to deal with someone in the Middle East, and Netanyahu showed him that Israel is unreliable. And it gave him some respite from the Deep State, because they were fine with it. It probably felt nice not having to fight with those bastards all the time over foreign policy.
And none of it would be happening if Netanyahu hadn’t shown his yellow belly.
If Netanyahu is replaced with a real leader*, someone with a spine and a vision for Israel’s future that makes sense to Trump, he could change course. Then again, he might not. The damage might be done already.

This, I think Donald Trump could work with.
I don't recall Trump ever saying he wanted Israel to incorporate Gaza into Israel. He condemned Israel for striking hamas inside qatar, a very bold act on the part of Bibi. I think that is when Trump turned. Far from thinking Bibi is weak, Trump probably thought at that point that Bibi was reckless and was going to damage his relationship with qatar, which was already substantial. Trump didn't just decide to choose qatar, he already had. That is why he stopped Israel from total victory. If anything, Trump has hindered Bibi from finishing the job with his fake "peace" plan. Trump is currently allowing Turkey to surround Israel with its forces in Syria and Gaza. He's pressuring Bibi to except Turkey having a role in Gaza, which Bibi opposes. And Trump also wants Israeli forces out of Syria. I think you're reading the situation all wrong in your desire to defend Trump. I don't understand the animosity towards Bibi in Israel while Trump is worshipped.

Why why why? I don't get it? What is Bibi thinking?
