Making The Point

While President Trump was signing executive orders in the Oval Office yesterday, a reporter asked about his policy toward Israel. The president used that moment to make a powerful point.

Calling attention to the size of the Resolute Desk, Trump said, “My desk is the Middle East.” Then he held a pen to the edge of the desk and said, “The top of this pen is Israel.” (Watch this video.)

The point being that the tiny nation of Israel, the only Jewish state in the entire world, is not the problem in the Middle East and shouldn’t be asked to make more concessions for peace.

The real problem in the Middle East is the Islamic Republic of Iran, the world’s largest state-sponsor of terrorism. Hamas and Hezbollah would struggle to survive without the ayatollah’s support.

That’s why President Trump signed an order today reimposing his “maximum pressure campaign” against Iran, ending four years of Biden/Harris appeasement
