    Could be that Trump is responsible, in the same way that Reagan was in '80.

    In other words, it wouldn’t be the first time fascists deliberately delayed hostage negotiations to fuck over non-fascist US politicians, if that is indeed what happened.

      Are you saying Biden wanted to end the war, but couldn’t? Because I remember him circumventing congress to send military aid to Isreal, more than once. No one was forcing his hand, they were actually doing the opposite.

      The difference being, we at least got the hostages back after Reagan was done treason’ing to win the election. Netanyahu is still going to kill Palestine, and Trump isn’t smart enough or tough enough to stop him, and wouldn’t care even if he was.
