Israel, the United States and Hamas are close to an agreement to free dozens of women and children held hostage in Gaza, in exchange for the first sustained pause in conflict in Gaza, according to people familiar with its provisions.

Without US support Israel wouldn’t last a month - Israel is a shining example of US “foreign policy.” Just like Saudi Arabia.
Right, do you not remember how the last attempts to dislodge Israel went, back when Israel went without significant US support?
Are you talking about the Yom Kippu war, perhaps? That war Israel only survived due to the massive support it received from the US?
Is that the time you are talking about?
… you do realize that the Yom Kippur War had already shifted in Israel’s favor by the time (limited) American support arrived, and that the Arab states were backed materially by the Soviet fucking Union, right?
Israel has nukes, you know? That’s a pretty solid deterrent, especially if you don’t have anything to lose.
So did Apartheid-South Africa - it’s not the deterrent it’s made out to be.
