This was followed by an air hop to another major address at a world leaders’ meeting in Sharm El-Sheikh. Factor in the usual schmoozing and glad-handing between formalities; it had to be a tiring day. Yet Trump looked as peppy at the end of his Middle East excursion as at the beginning. Read More

The hostages were freed. Families were reunited. Israelis were exultant, understandably so. Exhausted IDF reservists ceased fire, withdrew, and may soon return home. The increasingly pointless pulverization of Gaza paused, permitting Palestinians to return to whatever is left of their homes. Read More
