My latest: For the moment, Trump has stuffed the Israeli hard right into a locker, vetoing settlements in Gaza and annexation of the West Bank. One far-right politician even boycotted his Knesset speech. But if Trump doesn't keep them in a box, they'll capsize all plans for peace in the Middle East:
