Comments were submitted by 98 people. A few follow.\n<\/p>\n<p>No, because the Trump administration never had Israel\u2019s back to begin with, only a political need to cozy up to the Jews, grandiose ideas about U.S. geopolitical power, and a keen interest in Mediterranean real estate. No surprises here.\n        <\/p>\n<p>This administration (and the president in particular) is fickle and disloyal. While I give him credit for his support of Israel so far, it is unsurprising that he would betray that trust whenever it suits his whims.\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/p>\n<p class=\"newsletter-promo\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<a href=\"https:\/\/jewishchronicle.timesofisrael.com\/signup\/?utm_source=jewishchronicle-articles&amp;utm_medium=middle-link&amp;utm_campaign=signup-buttons\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\"><br \/>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\tGet The Jewish Chronicle Weekly Edition by email and never miss our top stories<br \/>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/a><br \/>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<a href=\"https:\/\/jewishchronicle.timesofisrael.com\/signup\/?utm_source=jewishchronicle-articles&amp;utm_medium=middle-link&amp;utm_campaign=signup-buttons\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\"><br \/>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\tFree Sign Up<br \/>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/a>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/p>\n<p>Everyone needs to just settle down and wait until this war is officially over \u2014 and that includes completion of the ongoing negotiations with Iran. The critical element of all this is the ability to inspect and verify compliance. This is for the U.S., for Israel and for the entire Middle East.<\/p>\n<p>To use Israeli intelligence and firepower for the first four weeks of war, then exclude Israel from negotiations and sell out Israeli security needs, is beyond disgusting.<\/p>\n<p>I believe Trump is trying to end the war to win the mid-term elections at almost any cost, even if it puts Israel in a bad light.<\/p>\n<p>Peace in the Middle East is the priority and it would benefit Israel and the Abraham Accords. Thank goodness Trump is our leader and not Kamala Harris \u2014 for Israel\u2019s safety and the U.S.<\/p>\n<p>The Trump administration is like the weather: It\u2019s impossible to depend on them for anything.<\/p>\n<p>Trump has always demonstrated support for Israel \u2014 more than any other U.S. president in our history.<\/p>\n<p>Trump\u2019s sole agenda is Donald Trump, not Israel or the U.S.<\/p>\n<p>It is not the responsibility of the U.S. government to prioritize the protection of another country, no matter how vital that ally is to our nation.<\/p>\n<p>I hope that it\u2019s temporary. Let see what will happen next.
