There is a lot more to this as well. Egypt recently gave / “sold” 2 islands to Saudi Arabia in return for billions in investment. Egypt really needs a lot of cash, and they could be convinced to cede 2000 square miles of Sinai land to expand Gaza into the main Palestinian state - in return of course for investment and security.

Also of note is the pressure on Qatar. Qatar had been the major supporter of Hamas. As of this moment, Hamas is nearly broken financially and they have always used cash as the means to muster support from the people. They are losing both. Meanwhile Abbas is being pressured and the rumors are that he has been frantically calling world leaders to find support to oppose Trump but has found none.

Trump was in Saudi Arabia a few months ago, and led a summit of 54 of the Muslim countries. He asked for their support and he may be getting it now. Also of note is that the world has been very quiet at the Saudi Crown Prince’s actions to round up his country’s billionaires and detain them, reportedly torture them, and take billions of dollars of some of them in return for their freedom. He is literally shaking them down, and we are quiet about it. Why? Possibly part of a larger quid pro quo, or possibly he knows he can get away with this because we want some other important cooperation from him. We could be seeing the end game of all these seemingly unrelated events come to being.
