4. I don't think anyone really knows Trump's mind,

but I think a better conjecture than Carlson's might be that Netanyahu sold Trump that this could reshape the Middle East into a better place and that he, unlike his predecessors was strong and brave enough to do it. Consider it as another step of PNAC with the same neo con theory that got us into Iraq.

Trump has even said others should have done this and has often spoke of their 47 years of terrorism. Just like his posting of the Jesus/doctor drawing, he.sees himself as God like. Remember his comment on being bound only by his morality, not international law? I think Netanyahu played to his narcissism and view that he is the most powerful person ever and will have a huge legacy. The adolescent bully his family sent away still exists inside the President.
