"Regime Change" Author Maggie Haberman on Trump's Imperial Presidency, Epstein Files & War on Iran
President Trump's son-in-law and envoy Jared Kushner met with Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu in Jerusalem on Monday after Israel rejected a 15-point plan for Gaza promoted by President Trump's "Board of Peace." The proposal would have seen Hamas gradually disarm and turn over governance of Gaza to an international force in exchange for Israel's withdrawal from the besieged territory.

Israel, supported by Kushner, is pushing for a deal whereby it "would not be obliged to conduct any of its obligations unless and until Hamas was fully disarmed," says Middle East analyst Mouin Rabbani. "This is essentially Israel throwing a poison pill into an agreement by including conditions that can never be met."

Rabbani argues that Jared Kushner is not a suitable negotiator because there is a "very intimate ideological, political connection between the Kushners and Israel."
