Trump on Prime Minister Netanyahu: I posted my response today on "Truth"

In response to a question about Benjamin Netanyahu, Donald Trump said: "I posted my response on Truth today; it's a good response."
He also emphasized that his relationship with Netanyahu is "very good."

Trump on the Israel lobby:

"The biggest change I've seen over the last 10, 15 years is what's happened to Israel and Jewish people. They had a very powerful lobby. You go back 20, 25 years ago, they had the most powerful lobby in Washington.

Now everyone is, you know, just large numbers have--if you look at the House, it's the Democrats, but you look at the Democrats in the House.

Look at guys like Schumer. He's become virtually a Palestinian. It's pretty amazing, actually. I've never seen anything like it."

Israeli Minister of Education, Yoav Kisch, on Channel 14:

"Regardless of who the President of the United States is, even after Trump, Iran will never have nuclear weapons. This is a certainty.

We, in the State of Israel, will not allow this to happen. And if necessary, we will act alone."

Turkey has the audacity to criticize Israel. But what are the facts on the ground?

Thousands of Turkish soldiers. Dozens of military bases and outposts across Syria, Iraq and Cyprus.

While Erdogan’s military aggression knows no borders, and Turkey occupies 36% of Cyprus, 5% of Syria and 2,000 km² of Iraq.

Israel temporarily controls merely 0.1% of Syria - a buffer zone to protect its citizens from proven security threats.

Former Mossad chief Yossi Cohen at the Galilee Conference: “We toured the Fordow nuclear site many times in order to understand the facility.

Its bombing by the Americans was the fulfillment of all my dreams.”

He added: 60% enriched uranium is still far from a bomb.

Colombia is doing a complete 180 on Israel, after its disastrous leftist government was turfed out:

🔹 Immediately restoring diplomatic relations and appointing an ambassador
🔹 Recognizing Israeli sovereignty over the Golan Heights
🔹 Inviting Israel's FM to the presidential inauguration
🔹 Abolishing visa requirements
🔹 Restoring the free trade agreement
🔹 Withdrawing from South Africa's case against Israel at the ICJ and from the “Hague Group”

🇮🇱Benjamin Netanyahu:

"This is the Golan Heights. The Israeli flag is flying here, and it will continue to fly, because this is our land.

Today it belongs to us, it belongs to us again, and it will always belong to us."

President Trump's statements regarding the change of plane in Ankara due to a threat from the Islamic Republic:

"This is solely the responsibility of the Secret Service. I simply follow their instructions. Therefore, I act on the recommendations of the Secret Service and the military.

They wanted me to use a different flight and a different plane, with the same level of security, but they wanted me to do it, so I did. I do what I'm told.

It seems there was a threat. I didn't ask too many questions about it. I receive many threats.

Trump:

I don't trust Iran. Iran has lied many times, and I am the last person who would trust them. Iran is not going to become a bully in the Middle East.

Trump on Iran: Iran is doing very well. We have complete control of the Strait of Hormuz. We control it. No one else, just us.

Our navy is incredible. Things are going great for our country.

Defense Minister Katz reiterates his commitment in Lebanon: “We will not withdraw from the security zones—not in Lebanon, not in Syria, and not in Gaza. We will continue to destroy all the terrorist infrastructure built here with Iranian funding.”

Trump: "The United States has complete control over the Strait of Hormuz. I think we will maintain that control. Our naval blockade, called a 'steel wall' by everyone, is something that nothing in Iran can counter. They have no navy, no air force, the soldiers they have left are not getting paid, the Islamic Revolutionary Guard Corps (IRGC) is being destroyed and is on the run, and their 'leadership,' at best, is unclear. They have no money - their country is 'very damaged.' The only things they have are lies and 300% inflation that is getting worse every day. Iran only talks, it doesn't act, and it is no longer a regional bully."

Statements by Mike Hagerty, the US Ambassador to Israel:

President Trump has not only shown that he is willing to bomb [Iran], but also that he is prepared to economically bankrupt [Iran].
