The week's question
In March 2025, in the thread "Re: OT, out", Umm asked the members: "Do you think it is because America is made up of magical soil that makes businesses based in America magically profitable?" This week it is put to everyone again. The button below opens the small thread re-asking it - read what others have said so far, then give your own answer as an ordinary reply.

As others have pointed out, that doesn't mean they've given up their ambitions. They might yet break the deal, or they might shift their fight and tactics to a post-Trump Plan world. But they had to publicly accept the deal.

Keep in mind, the prisoner/hostage exchange, and Israeli ground troop pullback, is only "phase 1". Once "Bibi" declares himself a hero for getting all the hostages back, they can declare "phase 2" at an impasse, and, with the ground troops out of the way, finish the job of leveling Gaza. Does anyone think his nibs would hold to his position of no Israeli annexation of Gaza or the West Bank, after not receiving a Nobel?

Let that sink in for a moment: having troops descend on US civilian populations, and blowing up civilian boats without giving the occupants a chance to surrender, is Trump in his best "peacemaker" pose. Now, who will he target his anger at, for not getting the Nobel?

Steve...has watched honchos receive bad news, then look around the office for someone to yell at.
