Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu likely had the best meeting at the White House in years now that Joe Biden is no longer there. The affinity between Netanyahu and President Donald J. Trump runs deep. The meeting triggered the Left, who have become totally entranced by the antisemitic forces of the far left. There were protests throughout the capital during this visit, and there will likely be a meltdown after what Trump said about Gaza at the joint press conference tonight.

There are numerous follow-up questions that must be answered about what this means for Palestinians, the possible involvement of American forces and the ongoing ceasefire agreement.

What this means will likely bring liberal America to full froth. President Trump noted the destruction, notably that it could take years to rebuild the area. Trump was referring to ownership of Gaza vis-a-vis a humanitarian effort, most likely. The president said that the goal was to make Gaza "The Riviera of the Middle East” a world-class reconstruction effort in due time.
For now, let's enjoy the meltdown that's bound to happen.
