And yet the Iran deal is gone and not coming back, and recently the US has pushed Arab states to normalize relations with Israel.
- yyyk 6y agoBoth due to Trump, not AIPAC. Biden is likely to restore the Iran deal, at least in form. US pushing mideast peace is longstanding American policy.
- SpaceRaccoon 6y agoYou don't think Trump was influenced by powerful zionists including AIPAC and his son-in-law? Why else would he care?
- yyyk 6y agoWhy would Trump care to withdraw from the Paris climate accord or the Cuba normalization agreement? I'm not arguing Nethanyahu played no role, he did deploy whatever influence and persuasion he could muster, and that helped overpower the influence of those who supported the deal, like French President Macron. But ultimately it was Trump's decision, and Nethanyahu would have had to live with it had Trump made a different call. Aside, note that nobody even thinks of easing up US sanctions on Cuba again or rejoining that agreement with Cuba. The Democratic party got such a signal from Hispanics last elections it's not even on the agenda.
