There's a lot of lobby money tied into that but there's another policy pill that's hard to swallow, as well. The US has stated numerous times that after the assault on Hamas is over, Palestinians should and need to be the ones to govern themselves either through a new government or the Palestinian Authority which has been kept out of power since Hamas assumed rule in the West Bank. Israel hasn't committed to that solution and without the US, there is no one to make them commit. So if the US pulls out, now, Israel still won't stop and the resolution will be Palestinians living under Israeli rule. There isn't a right answer or path forward so they're opting for the least bad, long-term.
