Israel's Arab neighbors have slowly been coming to accept the latter truth, their attention focused by the growing Iranian threat. Mideast peace progressed by leaps and bounds with the Abraham Accords, but slowed to a crawl when the Biden team re-embraced the two-state delusion, plus the even more fantastical obsession with reaching an entente with the "Death to America" Tehran regime. After Hizbullah shot thousands of missiles into Israel and the IDF finally began to move against Hizbullah, Team Biden rushed to call for a ceasefire - between Israel and Lebanon, not even daring to call out Hizbullah.
