Donald Trump has invited Benjamin Netanyahu to be the first foreign leader to visit the White House, in a major concession to a US ally who is wanted by the international criminal court for war crimes.
The invitation was made in a letter from the US president, which invited the Israeli prime minister to come to the White House on 4 February.
“It will be my honor to host you as my first foreign leader during my second term,” the letter read.

@stanleyHootzz In that quote by Henry Wallace replace "FASCIST" with "THE RULING CLASS OF BRITISH IMPERIALISM"
Doesn't it still fit? --- Winston Churchill, 1914, just prior to WWI:
“We have got all we want in territory, and our claim to be left in unmolested enjoyment of vast and splendid possessions, mainly acquired by violence, largely maintained by force, often seems less reasonable to others than to us.”

"Well that didn’t take long. President Trump has said he wants to “clean out” Gaza and relocate its population to US client states Egypt and Jordan, which would of course be a textbook case of ethnic cleansing. It would also align perfectly with longstanding Israeli agendas to remove Palestinians from their homeland so that their territory can be seized and settled by Jews.
Speaking with the press on board Air Force One on Saturday, Trump said he talked to Jordan’s King Abdullah II about taking in large numbers of Palestinians from Gaza, and said he plans to speak with Egypt’s president Abdel Fattah el-Sisi about doing the same.
“I’d like Egypt to take people and I’d like Jordan to take people,” Trump told reporters, saying the Gaza Strip is “a real mess” and “literally a demolition site”.
“You’re talking about probably a million and a half people, and we just clean out that whole thing,” Trump said."

“You’re talking about probably a million and a half people, and we just clean out that whole thing,” Trump said."
"Israel’s 15-month war on Gaza has displaced almost all of its 2.3 million residents, some of them multiple times. Trump said Gaza’s inhabitants could be moved “temporarily or could be long term”.
“It is literally a demolition site right now, almost everything is demolished and people are dying there,” he said.
“So, I would rather get involved with some of the Arab nations and build housing in a different location, where they can maybe live in peace for a change.”
Later on Sunday, Jordan’s Foreign Minister Ayman Safadi said that Amman’s “position is that the two-state solution is the way to achieve peace”.
He stressed that Jordan’s “rejection of displacement is fixed and unchangeable” in an apparent veiled response to Trump."
