I hope it’s more than wishful thinking. This “pro-Israel” commentator seems to think the crack is small and just malfeasance and/or ineptness on Netanyahu and his team’s part is exaggerating the shift. I, for one, certainly would love to see a major “break” through.

Innocent Palestinians and aid workers continue to die while the US keeps the flow of lethal hardware and Intelligence flowing by the billions. They don't need to enter Rafah. Siege warfare where starvation and pestilence do the work for you is ancient and very effective. Schumer's speech, the UN abstention and Genocide Joe's crocodile tears are too little too late and they know it. The majority of Israel's military and genocidal goals have been achieved. No tectonic shift is happening. Why is the question. The only reasonable answer is that Netanyahu/ Israeli government has got something on the US. It's they who are calling the shots not us. The tail is wagging the dog. What this is I have no clue but it is big. Perhaps the Israeli threats to go nuclear? They really believe in that Messianic nonsense. I would not put it past them. So the message is you supply us with regular bombs or we use nuclear ones.
