US-Israeli relations strain further as Netanyahu rejects Trump’s Gaza peace plan

News24 US analyst Michael Ware claims Benjamin Netanyahu’s public rejection of the US-backed Gaza peace plan is a reflection of the broader discontent with the United States. “This is arriving at a time when American and Israeli relations arguably have never been so strained in all these decades,” he told News24. “It’s a reflection of the broader discontent with the United States in America and how it’s fraying all the relationships that the US has.”
