Even the two Jews on this call are sick of you.\u201dThe call came during the United Nations General Assembly, as Trump was trying to sell the framework for ending the war that began after the <a id=\"HJJIPtOruzze\" href=\"https:\/\/www.ynetnews.com\/topics\/October_7\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\">October 7<\/a>, 2023, <a id=\"Byg8vtdrdMzg\" href=\"https:\/\/www.ynetnews.com\/topics\/Massacre\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\">Hamas massacre<\/a>. According to Haberman and Swan, the final push followed a turbulent period in which Kushner and Witkoff had grown furious with Israel over an IDF strike in Doha that targeted Hamas leaders.<\/p>\n<p>The September 9 strike in Qatar took place one day after Kushner and Witkoff met at Witkoff\u2019s home in Miami with Ron Dermer, Netanyahu\u2019s close adviser, to discuss postwar plans for Gaza.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cDermer lied to us,\u201d Kushner and Witkoff told White House officials after the strike, according to the book.<\/p>\n<p>The Qataris initially responded by deciding they no longer wanted to help Israel. Kushner, according to the account, felt the same way.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cI\u2019m f***ing out. The Israelis are crazy,\u201d Kushner reportedly told an associate at the time.<\/p>\n<p>But the strike also created an opening, the authors write. Kushner concluded it could be used to restrain Netanyahu after nearly two years of war and began drafting what would become Trump\u2019s 20-point Gaza plan.<\/p>\n<p>Days later, on the sidelines of the UN General Assembly in New York, Kushner and Witkoff met with Qatar\u2019s prime minister, Sheikh Mohammed bin Abdulrahman Al Thani. The Americans told him he had two options: isolate Israel further, which they said would be \u201cunderstandable,\u201d or use the moment \u201cfor leverage\u201d to push Israel toward negotiations.<\/p>\n<p>According to the book, Al Thani took Kushner\u2019s laptop and began typing edits directly into the draft.<\/p>\n<p>Trump then presented the deal to Arab and Muslim leaders before showing it to Netanyahu. Witkoff and Kushner warned White House Chief of Staff Susie Wiles that Netanyahu might try to call Trump and derail the plan. When Netanyahu eventually called the White House, Wiles connected Kushner and Witkoff, who stayed on the line with Trump and the Israeli prime minister.<\/p>\n<p>As soon as Trump joined the call, according to the book, he began yelling at Netanyahu.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cYou can\u2019t back out of this. I\u2019m the best friend Israel ever had. Everybody hates you, and I\u2019ve stood by you,\u201d Trump said, according to the book. \u201cThis is a great deal for Israel.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Netanyahu said he would agree to the deal. Two days later, he and Trump appeared together at a joint press conference, presenting a united front even though the deal had not yet been finalized. Trump said Netanyahu would have his \u201cfull backing\u201d to continue the war if Hamas refused the agreement.<\/p>\n<p>The deal was finalized on the evening of Oct. 8, just over a week later. Soon afterward, the 20 living hostages who remained in Gaza were released.<\/p>\n<p><a class=\"gelleryOpener\" aria-label=\"open article gallery\" data-image-id=\"ArticleImageData.B1xLWLEOzzl\" id=\"image_ArticleImageData.B1xLWLEOzzl\"><img decoding=\"async\" id=\"ReduxEditableImage_ArticleImageData.B1xLWLEOzzl\" src=\"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/il\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/06\/H11Pgjn11We_0_0_3000_1688_0_x-large.jpg\" alt=\"\u05e0\u05e9\u05d9\u05d0 \u05e8\u05d5\u05e1\u05d9\u05d4 \u05e4\u05d5\u05d8\u05d9\u05df \u05e0\u05e4\u05d2\u05e9 \u05e2\u05dd \u05e9\u05dc\u05d9\u05d7\u05d9 \u05e0\u05d9\u05d0 \u05d0\u05e8\u05d4&quot;\u05d1 \u05d8\u05e8\u05d0\u05de\u05e4 \u05d5\u05d5\u05d9\u05d8\u05e7\u05d5\u05e3 \u05d5 \u05e7\u05d5\u05e9\u05e0\u05e8 \u05d1\u05e7\u05e8\u05de\u05dc\u05d9\u05df \u05dc\u05de\u05d5&quot;\u05de \u05e2\u05dc \u05e1\u05d9\u05d5\u05dd \u05d4\u05de\u05dc\u05d7\u05de\u05d4 \u05d1 \u05d0\u05d5\u05e7\u05e8\u05d0\u05d9\u05e0\u05d4\" title=\"Jared Kushner and Steve Witkoff  (Photo: Alexander Kazakov\/ AFP) \" aria-hidden=\"false\"\/><\/a><img decoding=\"async\" id=\"ReduxEditableImage_ArticleImageData.B1xLWLEOzzl\" src=\"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/il\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/06\/H11Pgjn11We_0_0_3000_1688_0_x-large.jpg\" alt=\"\u05e0\u05e9\u05d9\u05d0 \u05e8\u05d5\u05e1\u05d9\u05d4 \u05e4\u05d5\u05d8\u05d9\u05df \u05e0\u05e4\u05d2\u05e9 \u05e2\u05dd \u05e9\u05dc\u05d9\u05d7\u05d9 \u05e0\u05d9\u05d0 \u05d0\u05e8\u05d4&quot;\u05d1 \u05d8\u05e8\u05d0\u05de\u05e4 \u05d5\u05d5\u05d9\u05d8\u05e7\u05d5\u05e3 \u05d5 \u05e7\u05d5\u05e9\u05e0\u05e8 \u05d1\u05e7\u05e8\u05de\u05dc\u05d9\u05df \u05dc\u05de\u05d5&quot;\u05de \u05e2\u05dc \u05e1\u05d9\u05d5\u05dd \u05d4\u05de\u05dc\u05d7\u05de\u05d4 \u05d1 \u05d0\u05d5\u05e7\u05e8\u05d0\u05d9\u05e0\u05d4\" title=\"Jared Kushner and Steve Witkoff  (Photo: Alexander Kazakov\/ AFP) \" aria-hidden=\"false\"\/><\/p>\n<p>Jared Kushner and Steve Witkoff <\/p>\n<p>(Photo: Alexander Kazakov\/ AFP)<\/p>\n<p>The new excerpt adds to a series of revelations from Haberman and Swan\u2019s book about Trump\u2019s relationship with Netanyahu and the way Israel, Iran, Gaza and Lebanon figured inside the president\u2019s second-term White House.<\/p>\n<p>In another passage reported earlier, Trump called Netanyahu a \u201ccon man,\u201d one of the harshest insults in the president\u2019s personal lexicon, while telling Elon Musk and Tucker Carlson during an Oval Office meeting that the United States would not go to war with Iran because such a confrontation would destroy his legacy.<\/p>\n<p>According to the book, Trump initially said he wanted \u201cno part of Netanyahu\u2019s war with Iran,\u201d but later changed his position after a Situation Room meeting in which Netanyahu presented Israel\u2019s arguments. CNN reported that the authors described \u201ccon man\u201d as one of Trump\u2019s sharpest forms of criticism.<\/p>\n<p>The book also describes Trump\u2019s reaction to Israel\u2019s September 2024 pager attack against Hezbollah in Lebanon. According to Haberman and Swan, Trump was both \u201cfascinated and horrified\u201d by the operation.<\/p>\n<p>In the Oval Office meeting, Trump described severe injuries from the attack to Musk and Carlson, including severed genitals and missing hands, and said one survivor \u201clooked like a great white shark came and just took a chunk out of him.\u201d The authors wrote that Trump repeatedly said, \u201cIt\u2019s terrible, terrible,\u201d while expressing astonishment at \u201cthe indiscriminate nature\u201d and \u201crecklessness\u201d of the attack in a public space.<\/p>\n<p>Musk, according to the book, was \u201cmesmerized\u201d by a golden pager Netanyahu had given Trump as a gift. Trump, meanwhile, asked Carlson how to influence \u201cthe base,\u201d his right-wing supporters. Carlson criticized Trump for refusing to confront Netanyahu over what he called \u201cthe slaughter in Gaza\u201d and argued that the Israeli prime minister was trying to drag the United States into a war with Iran that would ruin Trump\u2019s presidency.<\/p>\n<p>The book also portrays a volatile White House after the U.S. strike on Iran. According to Haberman and Swan, Trump became angry with Vice President JD Vance for not precisely repeating his claim that the strike had \u201ccompletely destroyed\u201d Iran\u2019s nuclear program. Vance said in an interview that he was not sure what the difference was between \u201cseverely damaged\u201d and \u201cdestroyed,\u201d while stressing that Iran\u2019s nuclear program had been set back significantly.<\/p>\n<p>According to the authors, Vance appeared worried after the strike, and advisers believed he feared further escalation. When he suggested that Trump soften parts of his speech about the operation, the president replied: \u201cI know what I\u2019m doing,\u201d then turned away and ended the discussion.<\/p>\n<p>Together, the excerpts depict Trump as publicly embracing Netanyahu while privately raging at him, using personal pressure, profanity and political leverage to force movement at key moments.<\/p>\n<p>The sharpest example, according to the new account, came in the days before the Gaza deal, when Trump warned Netanyahu not to walk away from the plan and framed himself as Israel\u2019s last reliable defender.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cYou can\u2019t back out of this,\u201d Trump told him, according to the book. \u201cI\u2019m the best friend Israel ever had.\u201d<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"The exchange, reported by Jewish Insider from the book Regime Change: Inside the Imperial Presidency of Donald Trump,&hellip;\n","protected":false},"author":2,"featured_media":507549,"comment_status":"","ping_status":"","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[2],"tags":[85,46,43],"class_list":["post-507548","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","category-israel","tag-il","tag-israel","tag-news"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/il\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/507548","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/il\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/il\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/il\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/2"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/il\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=507548"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/il\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/507548\/revisions"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/il\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/507549"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/il\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=507548"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/il\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=507548"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/il\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=507548"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
