One lesson to be drawn is that persistence matters more than anything.
Netanyahu’s singular focus for the last 30 years has been to get the US to bomb Iran. Clinton, Bush, Bush, Obama, Obama, Trump, Biden, and finally succeed with Trump. Congress and presidency has changed parties multiple times. Doesn’t matter if times were good, OK, or terrible. Same message. Same goal. After all has been said and done, Israel is going to more than double in size. West Bank, Gaza, Golan Heights and very shortly southern Lebanon.
