Yes bidens diplomats made the deal, along with Qatari and Egyptian mediators, but they were unable to get Israel to sign it. It was only after trump was elected and started talking to bibi as the president elect that the Israelis signed the same deal that they rejected 6 months ago.

They hadn't achieved any significant accomplishment that would prompt them to say "we're good now" and finally sign. The only thing that changed was the incoming administration.

I don't know what trump said to bibi but whatever it was it changed his mind on a ceasefire. My guess is he just wanted a 6 week break so that he could roll out all the horrible shit he's been doing in his first month without having to deal with Gaza. They probably went along with it because trump is more likely to follow through on stopping weapons shipments because he's less committed to the zionist cause and political norms of unwavering "defensive" support for Israel.

Or maybe bibi was just tanking peace talks to drag down Biden and they were actually fine 6 months ago but wanted to help trump win first. Possibly with some collusion with the trump campaign but I doubt the dems will ever investigate that like they did russia because that would be anti-semetic.

In either case I don't think bibi would've signed if Harris won. Either because he doesn't respect her or he wants to drag down the democratic party.
