Trump’s impatience with Netanyahu, the protracted struggle for a hostage deal, and growing international pressure on Israel.

Analyzing the rift between Donald Trump and Benjamin Netanyahu—dashed expectations, failed hostage negotiations, and the growing influence of isolationist forces in Washington.

And why, many Israelis wonder, hasn’t Trump stepped in to end this madness?

Trump’s new Middle East policy, America’s deals with Hamas, Houthi rebels, and Iran—and Jerusalem’s foreign policy isolation.

Israel and the Gaza war will not be a focal point of Trump’s visit, and this can be a good or bad thing, depending on how one looks at it.

Some insiders say Netanyahu initially favored Biden over Trump in the US election, believing Israel could more easily maneuver under the former.

Never before has a dispute between two of Israel’s most powerful men escalated so dramatically.
