Did Trump just abandon Israel? What’s really going on?

“The Meira K Show,” Ep. 10

In this episode of “The Meira K Show,” host Meira K tackles the burning question on everyone’s mind: Has Donald Trump turned his back on Israel? The president is planning to visit Saudi Arabia, the United Arab Emirates and Qatar this week, but not Israel. And recent U.S. actions that sidestep or exclude the Jewish state have fostered rumors of a split that are spreading in the Israeli media and beyond.

Meira lays out the facts behind the frenzy, from America’s ceasefire deal with the Houthis (without Israel) to murky signals about the Saudi peace process and speculation that Trump’s “America First” stance could leave Israel exposed. But is this a betrayal, or a bold vote of confidence in Israel’s strength?

With her trademark clarity and passion, she explains why Trump’s distance may not be a snub but a challenge for Israel to stand on its own. She also explores what it means for Israel to be seen as self-sufficient, the dangers of media-fueled hysteria, and how to read between the lines of international diplomacy.

Also in this episode:

  • The return of Tzvi Feldman’s remains after 43 years
  • Gaza war update: 80% of Rafah leveled; morale of the Israel Defense Forces stronger than ever
  • Hostage crisis: 21 possibly alive, though media narratives are spiraling out of control
  • Kanye West’s “Heil Hitler” video to Pulitzer Prize scandals
  • Meira’s book pick: Who’s Afraid of the Big Bad Jew?

Watch now for the real story beyond the panic, politics and headlines.
