I have long wondered why the notion that the U.S. could be considered an honest broker when it came to mediating peace in the Arab-Israeli dispute. Every President since Ike has tried to do so without success and instead paid to kick the can down the road. Trump is the first to shake things up by openly supporting Israel over the Palestinians and their terrorist leaders who stubbornly refuse to recognise the right of Israel to exist. By ramping up pressure on them by siding with the Israelis he is creating more leverage via bargaining chips for them to use if negotiations between the two renew. Supporting Israel and walking away from the table will soften their stance

Never underestimate what "globalist" diplomats can convince themselves ABOUT themselves.

Nothing will soften the stance of the “Palestinians”. Their stance is the obliteration of the state of Israel. There is no brokering peace when the objective has to be victory over such an enemy as the Caliphate revanchists.
