Israel And Palestine

  • Israel celebrates Trump

    Isaac Herzog, the President of Israel, has celebrated Trump’s win in the context of an ongoing war against Hamas in Gaza, and a simultaneous counteroffensive against Hezbollah in Lebanon.

    “Congratulations to President Donald Trump on your historic return to the White House. You are a true and dear friend of Israel, and a champion of peace and cooperation in our region. I look forward to working with you to strengthen the ironclad bond between our peoples, to build a future of peace and security for the Middle East, and to uphold our shared values. On behalf of the Jewish and democratic State of Israel, and all our people, I wish you much success.”

    It’s frequently a topic of national conversation in Israel and America, and while the latter’s foreign policy is geared toward Israel, Trump has maintained his support for its existence and prosperity.

  • UN take on Israel

    On Tuesday the United Nations General Assembly passed a resolution demanding that Israel withdraw from land it contests as its own no later than the next 12 months.

    It comes as Israel fights off Hamas and Hezbollah in its ongoing war against terror in the region. Its incursion into Gaza came as a result of an attack by Hamas last year.
