"Mr. Barghouti was not among the 250 Palestinian prisoners serving long sentences whom Israel released in a trade for hostages held in Gaza. Mr. Trump said he had just been discussing the idea of releasing Mr. Barghouti, adding, “I’ll be making a decision.” So now Trump is President of Israel? OY!

Harsh but absolutely spot on. Rubio has destroyed his entire legacy and for what? You know it's going to happen that at some point Trump will throw him under the bus.

Rosen to Rubio: "I'm not even mad anymore about your complicity in this administration's destruction of US global leadership. I'm simply disappointed. And I wonder if your proud of yourself in this moment when you go home to your family ... I know you know this in your heart."

This column serves as a fitting obituary talking about his life from a Jewish and Galitzianer perspective and how it was shaped by his experiences in Hitler's Germany and as a refugee.
