המשבר נפתר: בישראל מאשרים באופן רשמי כי עסקת החטופים נחתמה
— ישראל היום (@IsraelHayomHeb) January 15, 2025
Israeli sources say that they have received heavy 
pressure 
by the incoming Trump 
administration to get these agreements signed. Many are unhappy 
as they say it was done more as a PR move than as a real resolution, as a similar 
hostage 
deal in 2011 had freed Yahya Sinwar, the until recently leader 
of Hamas, main guy behind 
the oct 7th attack, and they view this deal as just a re-hash of that same situation, with potentially deadly future 
implications. Others are happy 
as the current deal could also mean that other countries and allies from both sides 
can step in and secure peace, and a quicker new deal for the release of the remaining hostages

I don't understand why the incoming Trump administration has so much more influence than the existing Biden one. Can someone give a brief (and sincere) explanation?

Its the unpredictable ( r-slurred ) president strategy. It has been applied previously in US history although I wouldn't be able to recall the specific US president off the top of my head.
Basically with Biden Israel know where they stand. They do whatever they want, the US considers them too valuable a middle eastern ally to act against them.
Trump on the other hand isn't all in on historical US policy. The Israeli's don't get a 100% on where he stands. For all they know he is actually capable of bombing Israel, or breaking all ties with Israel, or starting a war over Greenland with Europe. That is, he is an unknown quantity, and when you have an unknown quantity as the leader of the most powerful nation in the world, you try to keep your head down for the next four years until he goes away because you don't know which face off will actually blow up in your face.

The enemy loves peace the most when he doesn't know how little it would actually take to make you launch the most powerful army in the world at them.

Its less to do with Republicans and more to do with Trump himself. Trump has always been a hard negotiator and he knows that he has vast bargaining power at his disposal as president so he doesn't play nice.

I genuinely thought Trump was going to tell the Israelis, "kill 'em all, I don't care," so my only conclusion with this is that he viewed the continuing war as detrimental to US negotiating power. But I don't know at the end of the day
