Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu applauded President Donald Trump’s vision of rebuilding Gaza, telling Newsmax on Friday that it’s the kind of “fresh” thinking that led to the Abraham Accords during Trump’s first presidency.
Netanyahu sat down with Greta Van Susteren, host of “The Record With Greta Van Susteren,” for an exclusive interview in New York. Three days removed from the historic press conference with Trump about the future of Gaza and the Palestinian people, Netanyahu laid out the vision and strategy of getting to that point.
