We have zero to gain with this stance.

So if Saudi Arabia offers us 1 million free barrels of oil per month for the next 100 years, if we don't build there..

Have we not gained something?

That is just 1 stupid example, but I guarantee you there is plenty to gain.

Peace?
Nuclear Weapons Treaty?
Money?
Oil?
The Ben Gurion Canal?
Airspace?

Not going to happen.

Its a dumb idea and smarter heads will eventually prevail. Trump says a lot of things he doesnt really mean.

And therein lies the main issue: the suggestion itself completely undermines Trump’s own MAGA agenda. It is a b.s. negotiating tactic if Trump isn’t willing to follow through.

Trump is willing to follow through. That's why they will capitulate.

Threatening 100% involvement will result in lessening our involvement. I know what you're saying, and I get it, but this is a risk I'm fine taking. Very low risk, guaranteed high reward, even if it doesn't appear at face value to support the agenda.

If Trump actually followed through on this plan, the risks of escalating the conflict is much higher than achieving lasting peace and stability. Any American occupation of Gaza would not only needlessly jeopardize American lives for the primary benefit of a foreign government, it also increases the likelihood that United States will once again become embroiled in another devastating conflict in the region.

In short, the reward may be great for Israel yet not for the United States. And the risk is very high: Trump’s very presidency.
