'Ivanka convert ...': Trump's Knesset address becomes emotional, comes the historic Gaza Warn & 'Dawn or New Middle East'
US President Donald Trump delivered a very expected speech to the Israeli Parliament, the Knesset, on Monday, in celebration of the recently secluded Gaza warting and the successful return of the final Israeli hostages. The president spoke to Israeli lawmakers and regarded the development as the termination of a ‘long and painful nightmare’. He stated that the return of the prisoners’ characterized the end of an era of terror and death, and claimed that a ‘beautiful and much brighter future suddenly appeared within your reach, as the debris cleared’. Trump has set up the moment as nothing less than “the historical dawn of a new Middle East”. Ivanka Trump and her husband The diplomatic seriousness of the top of the world leaders was briefly relieved when the US president added a personal touch, talking about his daughter Ivanka Trump and her husband, Jared Kushner, who accompanied him to Israel. Ivanka converted to Orthodox Judaism in July 2009 after studying with Elie Weinstock of Ramaz School. She adopted the Hebrew name Yael. “Let me also like a very special thank you to someone who really loves Israel so much that my daughter repented,” Trump told lawmakers, and asked cameras to Kushner, who was “thanking”. The remarks were met with a standing ovation, giving participants a personal look at the president’s family life amid discussions about lasting peace. “I have Jared. Find someone more competent. And we’ve been working on the A-Plus team, ‘Trump said, praising the efforts of Kushner. Kushner, the US investor and businessman, who previously served as a senior adviser to his father -in -law, was an integral part of the ceasefire between Israel and Hamas. Steve Witkoff, who served with Trump’s current envoy in the Middle East, helped finalize the agreement that facilitated the release of hostages from Gaza and arranged a partial withdrawal from Israeli troops. Kushner’s involvement in the peace process followed a professional career in real estate, after serving as CEO of his family’s business until 2017.

Now, at least, not only for Israel, but also for Palestinians and many others, the long and painful nightmarity is finally. ‘ “While the dust is cleaning and debris in Gaza, the dawn breaks into a region that has been changed, and a beautiful and much brighter future suddenly appears within your reach. The attack on Simchat Torah … was one of the worst and horrific decline of the innocent life the world has ever seen, and the worst slaughter of the Holocaust. “Israel has won everything that can be won by force. My administration actively supports the new president of Lebanon and his mission to permanently disarm Hezbollah’s brigades. On Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu, Trump said: “He is not the easiest man to do with, but that’s what makes him wonderful.” At Foreign Minister Marco Rubio, Trump said: “He will decrease as the greatest secretary in American history.”
