“I thought capitulation refers to a recitation of a capitul of tehilim.”
So, now that Israel has capitulated to Hamas, can we all stop capitulating those 2 capituls after davening?
“take a longer view – there is just no possibility of a deal that will not make half of Jews and half of the world upset.”
I would be more willing to agree if this had happened ~1 year ago. If they were going to cave, why not do it a month or two after the October 7th attack? What was the point of fighting a war for over a year and getting the whole world to hate the Jews? I can understand people being mad about the deal, and other people being mad about it not coming sooner. I did not think anyone would be of the opinion that fighting a long, drawn-out war only to make the same concessions they could have made right away would be the best move. Either the war was stupid or the deal was stupid. I don’t think Netanyahu is playing “4-D chess” as Trump supporters like to say to justify anything bad that happens.
“that lead to vanishing of Syrian dictator”
More specifically, it took out a westernized, suit-and-tie-wearing dictator and replaced him with a beard-having, turban-wearing psycho. When has that ever worked out for Israel or The US? Syria being in a forever civil war was best case scenario. Let them all kill each other so that we don’t have to worry about them killing us.
