## Resource

Richard Epstein discusses Donald Trump’s surprise ceasefire deal between Israel and Hamas. Richard argues it’s not peace but a pause—born of Israel’s decisive military campaign and Hamas’s collapse. He explains how Netanyahu, Trump, and shifting Middle East alliances created a fragile new order, and why Gaza’s future now depends on demilitarization, reconstruction, and realism.
