Trump meets Israeli PM Netanyahu in Florida

Raw Story  

Trump kissed Sara Netanyahu on both cheeks, then clasped hands with the long-serving prime minister before posing for a photo with the two while giving a thumbs up sign, a video clip posted on social media by the former president showed. Netanyahu posted a photo online showing him holding a hat that said "TOTAL VICTORY" -- which he has vowed to achieve against Hamas in Gaza -- as he stood next to Trump at the Republican's Mar-a-Lago resort. The tone was in notable contrast to Netanyahu's meeting with presumptive Democratic presidential nominee Kamala Harris the previous day, in which the vice president told him to seal a Gaza peace deal and insisted that she would not be "silent" on the suffering in the Palestinian enclave. Gaza has been devastated by more than nine months of Israeli operations against Hamas, which launched a shock attack in October that resulted in the death of 1,197 people in Israel, most of them civilians, according to an AFP tally based on official Israeli figures More than 39,175 Palestinians have been killed in Israel's retaliatory campaign, according to data provided by the health ministry of Hamas-run Gaza, which does not give details of civilian and militant deaths. Netanyahu had a notably warmer relationship with Trump than with current President Joe Biden, and has clashed with the Democrat's administration on issues including civilian casualties in Gaza and the speed of US weapons deliveries to Israel.
