In President Trump’s plan, Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu got almost everything he hoped for in the end, despite mounting international isolation.

By David M. Halbfinger and Aaron Boxerman Sept. 30, 2025

Ultimately, Mr. Netanyahu got almost everything he could have hoped from Mr. Trump’s proposal — a demand that Hamas release the hostages immediately and lay down its weapons, without which Israel would have carte blanche to keep pummeling Gaza.

As for Israeli troops, they would get to remain in Gaza’s perimeter for the foreseeable future. There was such a stinting nod to the aspiration of statehood for Palestinians that the proposal all but suggested they just keep dreaming. And the Palestinian Authority would be left playing no role in Gaza anytime soon.

It was a rare moment of triumph that showed Mr. Netanyahu could still get much — if not all — of what he wanted despite Israel’s mounting international isolation. Just last week, several European countries recognized a Palestinian state over Israeli objections, while a diplomatic walkout left Mr. Netanyahu addressing a mostly empty room at the United Nations.

…the one that emulates your real workload. And for me (and probably many of you reading this), that would be “build a kernel as fast as possible.” And for that, I recommend the simple kcbench.

I kcbench mentioned it a few years ago, when writing about a new workstation that Level One Techs set up for me, and I’ve been using that as my primary workstation ever since (just over 5 years!).
