It's absolutely because of Trump. Israel knows they can keep their foot on the gas for the next two months because the Biden admin can't really do anything to them now, and there's no Harris admin to deal with after. Then, after they FAFO the LIVING SHIT out of everyone who wants a piece for the next two months, Trump can come in and be like "now, now, everyone" and, having accomplished most of what they want by then, the Israelis can back off and Trump looks like a hero. Nobel level hero.
Oh, and also, Hamas better give back EVERY FUCKING ONE of our hostages by the time Trump takes office.
