Trump Meets Netanyahu Amid Gaza Conflict

Former President Donald Trump hosted Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu at Mar-a-Lago, discussing Israel's war against Hamas and Trump's support for Netanyahu. Trump criticized Vice President Kamala Harris for her calls to minimize civilian casualties and provide humanitarian aid to Palestinians, branding her stance as disrespectful. The meeting aimed to restore their alliance after Netanyahu congratulated Joe Biden on his 2020 victory, which had strained their relationship. Harris' remarks after her own meeting with Netanyahu, calling for a ceasefire and highlighting civilian suffering, have drawn mixed reactions from Israeli officials. Despite differences, both Trump and Netanyahu emphasized their strong political ties and achievements. Meanwhile, ongoing US-mediated ceasefire negotiations between Israel and Hamas remain complex, with key sticking points yet to be resolved.
