Trump Issues Sharply Worded Notice To Israel: ‘Enough Is Enough!’

Apr 17, 2026·2 min read

President Donald Trump on Friday issued a forceful warning to Israel, making clear that the United States is directing the terms of the current 10-day ceasefire between Israel and Lebanon and expects full compliance.

“Israel will not be bombing Lebanon any longer. They are PROHIBITED from doing so by the U.S.A. Enough is enough!!!” the president wrote in a sharply worded Truth Social post Friday.

Trump also dismissed reports suggesting that a financial component could be part of negotiations to end the war with Iran, following claims that the U.S. was weighing the release of $20 billion in frozen Iranian assets in exchange for Tehran giving up its enriched uranium stockpile.

“No money will exchange hands in any way, shape, or form,” he pledged.

“The deal is in no way subject to Lebanon, either, but the USA will, separately, work with Lebanon, and deal with the Hezboolah [sic] situation in an appropriate manner,” he wrote.

Trump’s remarks directed at Israel came shortly after Prime Minister Bibi Netanyahu indicated that Israel’s campaign against Hezbollah is not yet complete and that additional action may still be necessary to achieve its objectives.

“One hand holds a weapon; the other is extended for peace,” Netanyahu said in a video statement explaining Israel would honor 10-day cease-fire at the behest of President Trump.

At the same time, Netanyahu signaled that further operations could be forthcoming.

“I will say honestly, we have not yet finished the job,” Netanyahu added. “There are things we plan to do regarding the remaining rocket threat and the drone threat, which I will not detail.”

He also cautioned that fully dismantling the Iran-backed group will take time and cannot be accomplished immediately.

“This will not be achieved tomorrow. It requires sustained effort, patience, and careful navigation in the diplomatic arena.”
