Trump-Bibi Meeting: US Will "Knock The Hell" Out Of Iran If Nuke Sites Rebuilt

President Trump hosted Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu at Mar-a-Lago for significant discussions. A key topic was potential military action against Iran, with Trump vowing to "knock the hell" out of Iran if they rebuild their nuclear program. He specifically mentioned that the US would retaliate if there were signs of reconstruction at Fordow, Natanz, or Isfahan. Netanyahu reportedly welcomed these statements, having previously urged Trump to approve new strikes on Iranian ballistic missile sites. Trump also encouraged Israel to improve relations with Syria, noting the new Syrian president's efforts. This comment was made in the context of Syria's fragmentation after a recent overthrow, which had weakened a pro-Iranian alignment and removed a significant obstacle for Israel. The leaders also discussed a Gaza ceasefire, agreeing on the need for a quick deal. However, disarming Hamas remains a major obstacle to a lasting peace in Gaza. The article suggests that Hamas could sustain an insurgency for years. Trump expressed strong support for Israel, commending Netanyahu's leadership.
