In this powerful video, we break down the tense phone call this week between President Trump and Prime Minister Netanyahu that made headline news. Bottom line, President Trump pressed Netanyahu to show restraint on striking Hezbollah’s stronghold in Beirut in order to protect negotiations with Iran. Netanyahu pushed back firmly, making it clear that Israel will not accept limits on its right to defend itself and destroy the Iranian proxy army on its border.

Many are disappointed with Trump’s position, and it reminds us of an important truth: even our greatest allies have their own interests. We must be thankful that President Trump remains one of the best friends Israel has ever had in the White House. Even as he, or his advisors, still do not fully grasp the true nature of the jihadi enemy we are facing.
