Mark Levin took to X on Thursday, May 29, to react to the United States' most recent ceasefire request.
"WHY IS THE UNITED STATES DICTATING TO ISRAEL HOW TO FIGHT HAMAS? Why do we have an envoy negotiating with Hamas and working with Qatar, and telling the Israelis what to do with Hamas when Hamas attacked Israel, slaughtered their people, and Hamas is holding their people hostage?" Levin wrote.

Mark Levin pointed out that Donald Trump — who's called Joe Biden "the worst president in history" — isn't making choices that differ from his predecessor.
"Israel wants to destroy Hamas. We keep demanding a ceasefire, which is what the Biden regime did. Why are we not allowing Israel to handle this instead of prolonging the war?" he continued.

According to the BBC, Hamas is holding at least 58 Israelis hostage, and about 20 are believed to still be alive.
"As for the hostages, the Israelis want them back as urgently as we do. Indeed, more so. But they have to decide the best way forward," Mark Levin said. "The Israelis have all but destroyed Hezbollah, they are destroying Hamas, they have destroyed Iran's air defenses and much of its economy."
"Israel knows what to do and how to do it," Levin concluded.

Donald Trump supporters weren't pleased with Mark Levin's comments.
"Why isn't Mark Levin ever on the side of America?" one X user wrote.
"Why don't you renounce your American citizenship publicly," another commented.
"The U.S. government needs to worry about helping Americans! Period," someone else chimed in.

White House press secretary
Karoline Leavitt confirmed to
CBS that Israel signed a ceasefire proposal alongside Donald Trump and special envoy
Steve Witkoff.
"I can confirm that special envoy Witkoff and the president submitted a ceasefire proposal to Hamas that Israel backed and supported," Leavitt said on Thursday, May 29.
"Israel signed off on this proposal before it was sent to Hamas," she added. "I can also confirm that those discussions are continuing, and we hope that a ceasefire in Gaza will take place so we can return all of the hostages home."
