Unlike Obama or Biden, Trump Has Improved the World Print

This week’s achievements merit pause and reflection on the historic nature of a war brought to sudden halt, with every living hostage returned collectively.
Now that Israeli troops have withdrawn from Gaza and Hamas has commenced fratricidal slaughter of fellow Palestinians, where have all of the anti-Israeli “Ceasefire Now!” activists gone?
It’s almost as if they couldn’t care any less about Palestinian lives, and only valued the conflict as a pretext to spew the anti-Semitic venom raging within them.
The subject of unending domestic and worldwide anti-Semitism, however, is a topic for another day.
Instead, this week’s events more appropriately highlight the historic achievement of Donald Trump securing the release of every living Israeli hostage after 737 days, and bringing an intractable Middle Eastern conflict to a sudden halt.
What a change nine months can make.
