"Netanyahu and Far-Right Minister Clash Over Israel-US Relations"
TL;DR
Israeli politicians, including opposition leaders Benny Gantz and Yair Lapid, criticized National Security Minister Itamar Ben-Gvir for his comments to The Wall Street Journal suggesting that former US President Donald Trump would have been more beneficial to Israel in its conflict with Hamas. Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu emphasized the importance of navigating Israel's relations with the US while standing by national interests and dismissed the need for help in doing so. The backlash against Ben-Gvir's remarks reflects divisions within the Israeli government over its approach to US relations and the ongoing conflict.
