The December 29th date in DC has specifically been designated for deciding to pursue more US/Zionist war against Iran.

3 days until this!

Netanyahu is currently in Florida, and will be in DC tomorrow.

Why is Trump accused of being a Russian asset when the Israel Zionist stranglehold on US politics is a thing?

Netanyahu meets with Rubio before Trump
The Israeli prime minister has met with the top US diplomat before his meeting with Trump.

In a post on the social media platform X, Netanyahu said it was a “great” meeting with Rubio.

The US secretary of state has been peripherally involved in the Gaza ceasefire negotiations, which have been spearheaded by Trump’s special envoy Steve Witkoff.

Trump greets Netanyahu as meeting kicks off
With a handshake and a pat on the back, the two leaders have reunited at Trump’s Mar-a-Lago estate.

The meeting is the fifth time since Trump returned to office in January that Netanyahu has visited the US.

Phase two of the ceasefire in Gaza, Iran and Syria are expected to loom large in their talks.

Here’s what Trump and Netanyahu have said so far
The pair have begun their meeting at Mar-a-Lago. Here’s what they’ve said so far:

It was all warm words in front of the press, with Trump saying Israel “might not exist right now” without Netanyahu as prime minister.
Netanyahu responded by saying Israel has “never had a friend like President Trump in the White House”.
Trump said that he wants to achieve a deal to continue the Gaza ceasefire “quickly”, but that disarming Hamas was the main sticking point.
The US president also suggested that Gaza reconstruction would start soon, with the caveat that “Gaza is a tough neighbourhood”.
Trump vowed to “knock the hell” out of Iran if the country builds up its nuclear capacity.
Despite Israeli incursions into Syria, Trump pushed Netanyahu to “get along” with Syria’s new president, Ahmed al-Sharaa, saying that he has confidence in al-Sharaa’s leadership.
Reporters pushed Trump to offer more details about an apparent US operation against a “dock area” in Venezuela, but the US president declined to say which agency was responsible.
The US president appeared to side with Russia’s account of an alleged drone attack against one of Putin’s residences. Ukraine has denied responsibility.

Netanyahu says he spoke with Elon Musk on Sunday
The Israeli prime minister says he spoke with billionaire Elon Musk, a prominent Trump ally, on Sunday to discuss technological development.

“The Prime Minister and Musk spoke at length about the advancement and development of AI technologies in Israel,” Netanyahu’s office said in a statement.

“The Prime Minister said that we intend to catapult Israel forward and turn it into a global leader in the field, exactly as we did with cyber and other technologies.”

Trump, Netanyahu finish Mar-a-Lago meeting
The pair has begun a news conference following their closed-door meeting in Florida.

Trump said the two of them came to “a lot of conclusions”, adding that there was “very little difference looking at where we want to be and where we want to go”.

Netanyahu said it was a “very, very productive meeting”.

Turning to Trump, the Israeli prime minister added, “Thank you for your friendship.”

Israel kills 414 Palestinians in Gaza since start of Trump’s ceasefire
Trump has proclaimed that he brought peace to the Middle East for the first time in 3,000 years with the Gaza ceasefire.

But in the 80 days since the truce went into effect, Israel has killed 414 Palestinians in Gaza, according to the territory’s Health Ministry.

That’s an average of more than five people a day.

Despite repeatedly taking credit for the truce, Trump and his aides have not condemned the Israeli violations.

Iranian official promises ‘harsh response’ to any aggression
Ali Shamkhani, a top adviser to Iranian Supreme Leader Ayatollah Ali Khamenei, has said that any aggression towards Iran will be met with a “harsh response”.

His post on the social media platform X comes as Trump meets with Netanyahu. The Israeli leader has been pushing for more strikes on Iran following a ceasefire agreement that ended a 12-day war in June.

While such strikes are largely seen as at odds with Trump’s priorities, the US president said today that the US would “knock the hell” out of Iran if it sought to increase its nuclear or military capabilities.
