Trump Reverses Sanctions on Israelis in Day 1 Executive Order

JERUSALEM–President Donald Trump returned to the White House on Monday with a flurry of executive orders and statements in support of Israel.

Trump reversed the Biden administration’s sanctions on Israelis, suspended new aid for the Palestinians, and withdrew the United States from the U.N. World Health Organization, which Israel has accused of colluding with Hamas. The president also spoke of confronting Iran and normalizing Israeli-Saudi relations—and vowed to bring home the remaining hostages abducted in Hamas’s Oct. 7, 2023, attack on Israel.

Overall, day one of Trump’s second term signaled a return to form for the president, whose first administration waged a "maximum pressure" sanctions campaign against Iran, oversaw normalization between Israel and four Arab states, and recognized Israel’s claims to Jerusalem and the Golan Heights.

Israeli prime minister Benjamin Netanyahu led a chorus of Middle Eastern leaders in congratulating Trump on his inauguration.

"I believe that working together again we will raise the U.S.-Israel alliance to even greater heights," Netanyahu said in a video message on Monday. "I’m confident that we will complete the defeat of Iran’s terror axis and usher in a new era of peace and prosperity for our region."

"On behalf of the people of Israel, I also want to thank you for your efforts in helping free Israeli hostages," Netanyahu added, referring to Trump’s decisive role in a hostage-ceasefire deal between Israel and Hamas that went into effect on Sunday. "I look forward to working with you to return the remaining hostages, to destroy Hamas’s military capabilities and end its political rule in Gaza, and to ensure that Gaza never again poses a threat to Israel."..............

If Trump representatives make anything clear to Hamas, it should be that if ever American hostage is not returned, they are subject to attacks by the US military without warning, and without care to collateral damage.  There is no such thing with these genocidal maniacs.

Death to every last one of them should be the goal.  They should be told this, that the US has no inhibitions to killing every last one of them, unless the hostages are release immediately.

I am certain that in at least one phone call you Bibi, that Trump has made it clear that he will support anything, and I mean ANYTHING they do to Hamas.
In a time of universal deceit - telling the truth is a revolutionary act.
