Kushner: Israeli government acting ‘a little irrational’ on Gaza due to next month’s election
The Times of Israel ^ | 09/06/2026 | Jacob Madid

US special envoy Jared Kushner says next month’s Knesset election has made Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu’s government act “a little irrational” when it comes to Gaza.

“I think we agree with the Israelis on the end state for Gaza,” Kushner says at a press appearance during a visit to Kyiv, where he was taking part in negotiations over the war.

“They just have crazy elections, and that makes them a little irrational in certain regards,” he adds.

The US has been trying to advance the Board of Peace’s plan to decommission the weapons of Hamas and all other armed groups in Gaza, to be paired with an Israeli withdrawal from the Strip.

However, Israel’s opposition to the plan has led to its stalling.

Thank you very much and God bless you.

Irrational? Muslims have been terrorizing and killing Jews for the past 14 centuries. In response to the October 7 massacre, Israel’s actions have been restrained. Every member of Hamas and every supporter of Hamas should be killed. Anyone left in Gaza should be shown the exit. Gaza should be turned into a nature preserve.

Let the Gaza terrorists murder you and then let me know what you think “Kushner”.

Did Kushner say that, or is it the (leftist) journal that came up with that statement?

According to the original agreement (and there is no other that that one) Hamas should be totally disarmed before Israel would withdraw its forces.

What a retard take. The middle has been on fire for almost 80 years. Now, it’s somehow Trumps fault. He’s the first president who actually is doing something about Iran.

What an ass Kushner is. When he ‘deigns’ to come to the Land, they should have any meetings in Sderot, so he can feel how generous the Gazan pigs were when they kidnapped, tortured, raped, and murdered 3000 in two days.

Kushner’s face appears in the Yiddish dictionary next to hutzpah and schmendrick.

Carpet Bomb gaza until there is nothing but bio waste and ruble left and then bulldoze that trash in to the river and the sea.....

Then spray lots of DDT and agent orange on the bomb cratered land scrape so the roaches don’t ever come back.....

I think what he’s saying here is that due to the nature of Israel’s elections, the current government has to do things that may seem irrational to outside observers. Israel’s elections are not like America’s.

I've seen so much praise for Kushner for the Abraham Accords.

But the moment he halfway implies a tepid criticism of Israel, he's suddenly Satan incarnate.
