October 14, 2025 - For a second, Netanyahu actually considered sitting at the same table with Palestinian President Mahmoud Abbas to discuss peace, Gaza’s reconstruction, and what now appears to be the inevitable participation of the Palestinian Authority (PA) in this process (though he ultimately decided against attending). Watching these fast-paced events unfold was as surreal as witnessing Netanyahu’s public apology to Qatari leadership last month – with Trump watching carefully.

Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu told US President Donald Trump that everyone was "loving Israel again" after the announcement of the hostage release and the Gaza ceasefire deal.

Overall, Trump's comments suggested he remains firmly in Netanyahu's camp, even as some aides have privately questioned the Israeli leader's commitment to the Gaza ceasefire.

October 4, 2025 - Well, Team Netanyahu pulled it off brilliantly. “In light of Hamas’s response, Israel is preparing for the immediate implementation of the first stage of President Trump’s plan for the immediate release of all the hostages,” the PMO statement read.

3 weeks ago - The Israeli leader is expected to present Trump with options for the U.S. to join or assist in any new military operations, the sources said.
