The biggest loss for the US and Israel may be [the losing temper of] Jordan, when the Hashemite [Bani Hasyim, direct descendant of Prophet Muhammad PBUH] Kingdom decides to cut ties with Israel after genocidal Israel nonstop in Gaza, currently 10,100 Gazans killed.

Long time playing as mediator about Palestinian issues, especially or very crucial role in the Oslo Accord 1993 [note= although the late Jordan King Hussein bin Talal didn’t receive Nobel Peace, King Hussein is a very close friend of Israeli PM Yithzak Rabin, Israeli FM Shimon Peres, and Palestine Yasser Arafat], Jordan is old ally in the middle east for [both] US and Israel.

There's no way this happened without Israel's consent and it's very unlikely this becomes an ongoing, meaningful airlift. Ultimately about optics, King Abdullah, son of King Hussein, looks like he's using the Jordanian military to challenge Israel's blockade. Shimon Peres, Yithzak Rabin, and Palestine Liberation Organization chairman Mohammed Abdel Rahman Abdel Raouf ‘Yasser’ Arafat al-Qudwa al-Husseini received the Nobel Prize for Peace in 1994. ‘The al-Husseini clan’, in Arafat name, was based in Gaza, although Arafat born and raised in Cairo Egypt.

Netanyahu, unsurprisingly, tells ABC [4 hours ago] that Israel will keep a military presence in Gaza after the war: "I think Israel will, for an indefinite period, have the overall security responsibility because we've seen what happens when we don't have it. His comments don't preclude a multinational force or the return of the PA in Gaza. But they do underscore why those ideas are farfetched: it would be the West Bank model of someone else playing subcontractor while Israel retains freedom of military action.

Because everyone hates the US, now the potential to [once again] convince Biden to stop the war in Israel - Palestine [like Reagan to Menachem Begin after the 1982 Beirut massacre], goes to Indonesia President ‘Jokowi’ Joko Widodo, biggest Muslim population on earth. Around 251 million out of 277 million of Indonesian are Muslim.  

Last time to the closing G20 Summit in Bali 2022 356 days ago, Jokowi repeated 3 times = Stop the war Russia - Ukraine. 

"She fought all her life to create a place between the river and the sea that's shared by both people." Yocheved Lifschitz, 85, was freed from Hamas captivity a fortnight ago and her daughter, Sharone, says she believes Palestine and Israel will one day make peace. Yocheved very popular - viral because shake hand with HAMAS

Jokowi scrambled at home, some people already said Jokowi is ‘Soeharto 2.0’, but like a lot tactic by President or Prime Minister across the world, if difficult moment or scramble at home, using foreign policy may help. Last time, former UK PM Boris Johnson used the Ukraine issue, and until today, Boris to be a ‘cult’ among Ukrainians. 

President Joko "Jokowi" Widodo is scheduled to fly to the United States over the weekend to attend the 30th Asia-Pacific Economic Cooperation (APEC) summit in San Francisco, California, on Nov. 15-17, and a bilateral meeting with US President Joe Biden at the White House.

For Jokowi, the US trip is an opportunity to pause his domestic agenda and recharge his battery. The date for the bilateral meeting remains unannounced, but this will be Jokowi's second visit to the White House after the US-ASEAN summit in Washington, DC, in May last year. "President Biden looks forward to welcoming President Widodo to Washington for a bilateral meeting at the White House this November and also looks forward to welcoming President Widodo to San Francisco for APEC Economic Leaders' Week," the White House said in its press release.

Jokowi and Biden respect and like each other, although traditionally Indonesia prefers to deal with Republican presidents because the Democrats are too demanding, especially on the issues of human rights, labor protection, freedom of speech and religious freedom.

It is almost certain that Jokowi will table the ongoing war in Gaza in his conversation with his host, who is likely to persuade Jokowi to soften Indonesia’s stance on Israel’s genocidal acts in Gaza. Jokowi should stay tough on Israel as a matter of constitutional principle and to calm the public anger at the continuing violence against the Palestinians. 

Palestine’s independence has long topped the agenda of Indonesian foreign policy, although former president Abdurrahman "Gus Dur" Wahid tried a different approach by proposing a more open and formal relationship with Israel during his 21-month rule from 1999 to 2001. During the summit with Biden, Jokowi also needs to express his disappointment with Hamas, who killed more than 1,400 people and kidnapped over 200 others, Israelis and other nationalities, during its Oct. 7 attack on Israel.

The US has chosen the theme Creating a Resilient and Sustainable Future for All for APEC 2023. It says it aims for an "interconnected, innovative and inclusive" region and "to advance a free, fair and open economic policy agenda that benefits US workers, businesses and families”. During the APEC meeting, media attention will likely focus on two key issues: the possible summit between Biden and Chinese President Xi Jinping and the war in Gaza.

Both Biden and Xi are not likely to make agreements, but their meeting will help reduce tension between the two economic and military superpowers. Established in 1989, APEC is a non-binding regional economic forum among Asia-Pacific countries "to leverage the growing interdependence of the Asia-Pacific and create greater prosperity for the people of the region by promoting balanced, inclusive, sustainable, innovative and secure growth and by accelerating regional economic integration”.

APEC member states are home to 38 percent of the global population, nearly 3 billion people, contribute 62 percent to the world gross domestic product (GDP) and control almost half of global trade. When it was established in 1989, membership was based on economic strength, rather than sovereignty, which is why Hong Kong and Taiwan joined the club. 

Today APEC has 21 members: Australia, Brunei, Canada, Chile, China, Hong Kong, Indonesia, Japan, South Korea, Malaysia, Mexico, New Zealand, the Philippines, Peru, Papua New Guinea, Russia, Singapore, Taiwan, Thailand, the US and Vietnam.  For President Jokowi, this will be his last APEC summit, and the last multilateral forum to woo foreign investment into his flagship new capital city, Nusantara. Jokowi will end his second and final term in October next year.

Sure, he will be tempted to lure APEC members to invest in Indonesia. However, as elections that will determine Jokowi’s successor are only a few months away, investors will logically prefer to wait until the outcome of the presidential and legislative elections are announced in March. It will be everybody’s hope that during his US trip Jokowi can upgrade bilateral ties between the two largest democracies to the next level as part of his long-lasting legacy to the country.

if Biden loses to Trump, "he goes down in history as being incredibly selfish and possibly dooming democracy as a result. It’s a giant gamble an most people will be deferential to him in terms of making the choice. But more people are now acknowledging that he has a real choice to make.” Some people say the polls with Biden down must be wrong because the polls were wrong in 2016/2020. But they were wrong the other direction. Many won't say they'll vote for Trump because he's corrupt, but they still will. If Joe Biden were to step aside, he would go down in history as an accomplished statesman who beat Trump and achieved a great deal. If he decides to run again it may go down as one of the great overreaches of all time that delivers us to a disastrous Trump second term.

But Jokowi also no longer on throne.
