US President Donald Trump and his top advisers have lost trust in Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu, marking a significant shift in the relationship between the two countries. Despite public displays of support, Trump was forced to pressure Netanyahu into accepting a ceasefire in Gaza, reflecting deep concerns about the Israeli leader's integrity and the influence of ultranationalist factions in his government. The US administration's frustration culminated in an unprecedented move: American mediators attended an Israeli Cabinet meeting to ensure compliance with the ceasefire deal.
This public rebuke highlights growing unease in Washington over Netanyahu's leadership, which is seen as increasingly autocratic and reckless, undermining both international law and US interests. The rift extends beyond government circles, as American public opinion has turned sharply against Israel's actions in Gaza, with declining support across the political spectrum. As Israel faces an election year, the erosion of trust from its most important ally and the American people poses a serious strategic challenge, with Netanyahu at the center of the crisis.
