Summary

Israeli Finance Minister Bezalel Smotrich endorsed President-elect Donald Trump’s victory, stating it’s “time” to extend full Israeli sovereignty over the occupied West Bank.

This comes as Israeli Prime Minister Netanyahu highlighted his alignment with Trump on the “Iranian threat.”

Tensions in Gaza and Lebanon have escalated following recent Israeli airstrikes, with regional leaders gathering in Riyadh to address Israeli actions.

Israeli President Isaac Herzog is set to meet President Biden, though Biden’s influence on Israel may be limited following Trump’s win.

    I did answer by saying that I’m going to take zero blame for this mess.

    I also said that I did vote for Harris, so I’m confused about your “sitting back and allowing a genocidal fascist dictator to take power” comment. I’ve been preaching about the DNC’s incompetence since they allowed him to get elected in 2016 but I’m always met with opposition from people who think the DNC’s losing strategy is the correct strategy even though there’s no metric where this makes any sense.
