WE TRULY ARE: Trump’s Middle East Moment: The Hostages Are Free, and the World Is Watching. “So today we got to witness the release of 20 hostages, the suspension of a brutal urban warfare campaign, and one more perfectly placed swipe at the Biggest Bitterest Loser in Democrat history, Hillary Clinton.”
UPDATE (FROM GLENN):
Today is a great day for all who love freedom, western values and the human spirit.
It’s a bad day for Progressives, Jihadists and select right wing influencers.

PSA: "Bittersweet" today is that some hostages came home and some died in torturous captivity NOT that some hostages came home and you have to give Trump credit for it.

Plus: The Peace Deal Proves That Netanyahu’s Critics Were Wrong: They kept insisting the prime minister was prolonging the war for political reasons. “Mr. Netanyahu has accepted a deal to end the war, and on the terms he always said he would: the release of all hostages and the dismantling of Hamas’s military and governing capabilities. The Trump deal promises this and, unlike previous proposals, leaves Israeli troops in a position to enforce it should the international stabilization force fail to do so. In that case, President Trump says that Israel will have his ‘full backing’ to act. Given his record, Israelis have reason to believe him. That wasn’t the case with President Biden.”
If Hamas breaks the peace deal, I expect Trump to endorse mass assassinations of Hamas leaders — and financial backers — as well as military action in Gaza that will make what came before look mild. It’s useful to send the message that you don’t break deals with us.
