President Donald Trump announced a peace deal to end the war in Gaza earlier this month, to tremendous fanfare and praise — but now his administration is scrambling to prevent it from falling apart, while privately raging at how Israel is putting the whole thing in jeopardy.
This follows recent reporting that the administration was fearful the deal would fall apart altogether.
According to Politico, "the mounting frustrations come as a succession of senior officials are passing through Israel this week looking to keep a fragile ceasefire in place. They see some recent developments — the Israeli Defense Force’s counter-attack in Gaza on Sunday, and the Knesset’s vote in favor of West Bank annexation, which Trump has ruled out — as detrimental to the already fragile agreement between Israel and Hamas."
Vice President JD Vance reportedly relayed a "firm message" to Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu from the United States this week in response to the uncertainty.
However, the report continued, despite Netanyahu promising that there would be a limited, measured response to the Hamas attack on two IDF soldiers, "The counter-attack on Sunday left more than 40 civilians dead. Senior U.S. officials expressed their frustration about the severity of the attack, telling one Arab ally that Israel was 'out of control,' one of the two people familiar with the conversation said."
Trump has also turned his fury on Hamas, warning them in a recent post online that "There is still hope that Hamas will do what is right. If they do not, an end to Hamas will be FAST, FURIOUS, & BRUTAL!"
