Donald Trump has recently sidelined "Israel" in what is alarming many Israeli officials and leading them to see him as untrustworthy.

An Israeli Likud minister has blasted US President Donald Trump, saying he expects better collaboration from the US president.

Speaking to KAN radio, Israeli Regional Collaboration Minister David Amsalem stated, “Trump has acted in Israel’s interest until now, but it turns out that this guy is unpredictable," adding that "every day he is on a different side."

Amsalem praised former US President Joe Biden as someone "who really loved Israel" and argued that Trump cannot be trusted, citing his decision to cease striking Yemen's Ansar Allah.

Moody, undecisive?

“We are dealing with a president that gets up in the morning with A, at night decides B and afterward C and does D,” the Likud minister said.

“It creates confusion globally on every issue. When you're leading the world, there needs to be a clear method—a sense of consistency.”

He further criticized the lack of coordination between Washington and "Israel" on key regional matters, including efforts to secure the release of US-Israeli captive Edan Alexander, calling it “a serious thing” and a break from "every norm there ever was between Israel and the US.”

Negotiations for a broader deal to secure the release of all Israeli captives in Gaza would proceed, Netanyahu stated, but would do so “under fire, during preparations for an intensification of the fighting,” according to a statement issued by his office.

Hamas announced on Sunday that it would release Alexander as it confirmed direct talks with the United States toward a potential ceasefire in the war-torn Palestinian territory.

US takes over Iran, Yemen, Gaza talks, sidelines 'Israel'

The United States has overtaken the Israeli regime in leading negotiations related to Iran, Ansar Allah, and most recently, the case of Israeli soldier and American captive Idan Alexander, according to Israeli Channel 13.

Citing a US official, Channel 13 reported that following Alexander's release, immediate negotiations are expected to begin to reach a comprehensive agreement. The fate of other captives held in Gaza is now reportedly in the hands of US President Donald Trump, as both Hamas and "Israel" await Washington's next steps.

Israeli media also reported that the US is actively working to recover the remains of four American captives believed to have been killed during the war.

For Trump, Netanyahu’s decision to launch a renewed military offensive in Gaza represents a departure from his vision for a stable postwar transition. He sees the offensive as counterproductive and believes it could complicate efforts to implement a broader political and economic plan to rebuild the territory.

According to two sources familiar with Trump’s thinking, the president has described the new assault as a “wasted effort” that undermines momentum toward reconstruction and de-escalation.

Meanwhile, according to NBC, the US is allegedly pressing both "Israel" and Hamas to agree to a ceasefire, and these efforts are part of ongoing diplomatic engagements between Dermer and Witkoff in Washington.
