President Trump made a very poor decision in appointing Steve Witkoff as Middle East envoy. Former U.S ambassador to Israel David Friedman would have been a much better pick. Steve Witkoff clearly has little understanding about the Middle East. His statements on Iran, Qatar, Syria, and Hamas have been ill-informed, naive, and asinine. The people who care about Israel should be very concerned about Witkoff. Hopefully Rubio, Waltz, Huckabee, and Hegseth will be strong voices of reason with the POTUS.
As bad as Witkoff is on Hamas, he’s worse on Qatar. One of Trump’s worst picks.

To be clear here, Witkoff admits Hams fooled him; if Hams managed to do that, imagine what the evil Qatar has managed to do to him. https://t.co/TmzI18c0VP

2) Qatar and Witkoff:
“Witkoff bought the hotel in 2013 for $654 million with a plan to convert the bulk of the building’s 600 or so rooms into high-end condos. But by 2016 he and his partners — Harry Macklowe, Howard Lorber’s New Valley and Highgate Holdings — had decided the…

Steve Witkoff is one of Trump’s worst picks so far.
He’s shallow, naive, gullible, for sale, corrupt, has terrible ideas, and loves to whitewash terrorists and their sponsors.

Steve Witkoff is adopting the Iran regime’s language of “verification” instead of President Trump’s language of “dismantlement.” That’s a MASSIVE difference. This would be even worse than the Obama deal of 2015. https://t.co/JPVBRcDmeX

Witkoff admits he may have been ‘duped’ by Hamas in ceasefire talks
US special envoy Steve Witkoff reaffirms America’s commitment to Israel: We need to be clear who the aggressor is here, and that is Hamas.
By Arutz Sheva, March 24th, 2025
US special envoy Steve Witkoff acknowledged on Sunday that he may have been misled by Hamas during the recent failed ceasefire negotiations.
ADVERTISEMENT“I certainly hope we get everybody back to the table and get the hostages home,” Witkoff said on Fox News Sunday. “I thought we had a deal — an acceptable deal. I even thought we had an approval from Hamas.”
“Maybe that’s just me getting duped,” he admitted. “I thought we were there, and evidently, we weren’t.”
Witkoff reaffirmed America’s commitment to Israel, making it clear where the responsibility for the conflict lies.
“The US stands with the State of Israel,” he declared. “We need to be clear who the aggressor is here, and that is Hamas.”
