I have a theory about why Trump himself is authorizing this. Trump is president, but he knows he can’t hang on to it. Bibi has offered to make him and his heirs kings in perpetuity of Gaza though. He’s aiming to build a new Dubai in Israel, a resort city for the rich and famous under his exclusive control in perpetuity and shield him from prosecution. Trump City. That’s a legacy. That’s the most massive tribute anyone has offered him yet. He’ll do anything Bibi asks because in exchange, he gets to be a petty king of his own little Morocco, his Singapore, his little Mediterranean paradise. It’s exactly that transactional. The proceeds from his “Bored of Peace” brigade will go to building his little kingdom, and he’ll be given a blank check to do whatever he feels like as long as he uses the full force of the US military machine to serve the Israeli cause.
